Arsenal defender Kieran Tierney has told the Daily Mail that Gabriel Jesus works really hard in training every day.

Jesus has been a revelation since making the switch from Manchester City and has transformed Arsenal’s attack.

The 25-year-old has already bagged five goals and registered four assists in 10 Premier League appearances.

The striker has played a huge part in the Gunners’ brilliant start to the season and Tierney says he works so hard in training every single day.

Tierney blown away by Jesus

Speaking to the Daily Mail, Tierney labelled Jesus as one of the best players he has ever played with.

“He’s amazing. He’s one of the best — if not the best — players I’ve ever played with. He adds so much to us,” he said.

“He’s still young but he’s got so much experience. He’s been there and done it, he’s won the league, so knows what it takes. To have someone like that come into your changing room, it’s amazing.”

“I can see the way he [Jesus] defends as well, he defends with his heart. He and Eddie Nketiah are the most hard-working strikers I’ve ever been around. To have that at the top of the pitch helps us in midfield and defence.

“He’s got this inner drive, this hunger. He wants to win everything, even head tennis in training. [When Jesus plays], he’s fighting for every point. That’s the mentality you need to win stuff.”

The Brazilian has made a huge impact on Mikel Arteta’s men and his attitude seems to be rubbing off on the rest of the side.

Jesus is arguably the hardest-working player in the side and has won four Premier League titles under Pep Guardiola.

His winning mentality is clearly impacting Arteta’s young team as they sit top of the table. The Gunners face a trip to the south coast today and will be hoping to open up a four point gap between themselves and City.
