Mikel Arteta believes that Arsenal have got Gabriel Jesus “back at his best.”
The forward scored a hat-trick against Crystal Palace on Wednesday night to send the side through to the Carabao Cup semi-finals, his first goals at the Emirates since 17 December 2023.
“The movement, the quality of his touches, the way he finished, his reactions – that is a big, big thing for him and the team,” said the Arsenal boss.
“It is a big message for the team in that we have got Gabby back at his best. Playing at that level he can really deliver for us.
“Gabby is someone who wants to do more. He wants to work harder and help the team more in every way. Today it got rewarded.”
