This season we have experience of this, and it will be different.”##NAJAVA_MECA_7390656##Jesus is aware that coming so close has created a new level of expectation.”We created this by doing so well,” he said. “To win the Premier League was our main target, but at least we fought till the end with one of the biggest clubs in the world. We have to go again with the same energy.”People believe more in us because the work we put in on the pitch was top. Now everyone here wants to continue and increase the level again.”Even before (last season), I was feeling like the gap was not that big. They have been together for years, and that made a difference. Winning for years made a difference also.”The year I arrived, I believed we could fight and win. Unfortunately, we didn’t win, but I think we will, for sure.”⚽️🤙🏾 pic.twitter.com/BTEhsd9kbW— Gabriel Jesus (@gabrieljesus9) July 25, 2023 Jesus scored 11 goals in 33 appearances last season with Arsenal.
