Arsenal forward says Manchester City game is a must win
Arsenal's chance of winning the Premier League was left hanging by Southampton after playing a 3-3 draw at the Emirate Stadium on Friday night.
Speaking after the game, Jesus said, “Like the last two games, it’s two points dropped. With all respect to our opponents tonight, Southampton, they came to play the game of their lives because of the situation they’re in now, and us too.
“We have to understand that every point can decide the league. But, like we all say, now it’s time to stick together and then we go again.
“This is the Premier League, it’s so difficult to win this competition. We are not here to always give excuses but it’s a tough league – there are some good games and tough games. The last games we played, we faced tough opponents.
“In the last two games, we started so well and then after we couldn’t hold the ball and keep playing [our way]. Tonight was the opposite - we didn’t start well like in other games but at the end we tried our best but dropped two points.”
Giving up is not an option says Jesus
Going into the final few minutes down two goals, it could have been easy for the players to give up, but the Brazilian striker believes that giving up is not an option when you play for a club with a reputation.
Still speaking, he said, “It’s really difficult to be [trailing by two goals] but we are here playing for a massive club, and for all the supporters at the club.,” he added. “We have to manage ourselves to come back and be focused again and strong, because anything can happen from now until the end of the season.
