Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has rated Gabriel Jesus as a better player than Viktor Gyokeres at Arsenal.
The Gunners are five points clear of Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table after their 4-1 win over Aston Villa on Tuesday night.
Despite starting the game, Gyokeres failed to get on the score sheet while Jesus got Arsenal’s fourth goal of the game after making an appearance from the bench.
In a chat with Sky Sports, Carragher stated that Jesus has been more effective in the attack for Arsenal than Gyokeres.

“The one negative out of tonight for Arsenal is that Gyokeres should not be starting, when they have players like this. In a couple of games time, when Jesus is a bit more up to speed, he should be starting. He’s a better player than Gyokeres – that’s a fact.
“There’s been questions in the past asking if (Jesus) is good enough for Arsenal to go and win the league. But right now, he’s better than the guy they brought in who they thought was going to win them the league.
“Havertz or him as the central striker is a better player than Gyokeres. He lacks finesse and quality when you think of what they’ve got on the bench. I think Arsenal need to improve on Gyokeres and they’ve got players that can in Jesus.”
