Cedric Soares has been lucky enough to play with some fantastic players at Arsenal.

The Portuguese full-back has been at Arsenal for four years now and he’s worked with some fantastic players from Mesut Ozil to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

Speaking on the , Cedric has been discussing some of his teammates, and he says that Gabriel Jesus is a player 𓃲who really shocked him when he first joined 🅺Arsenal, claiming that he was immense in training from day one.

Gabriel Jesus shocked Cedric Soares when he signed

Cedric spoke about Jesꩲus and how he shocked him with his ꦑability.

“Gabriel Jesus, when he ar♔rived at Arsenal, surprised me. I played agains🍸t him many times and I always liked him, but when I trained with him I said ‘wow, this guy is very complete. He’ll help us a lot,’” Cedric said.

“Sometimes he’s not the player looking to score. He’s not a player who is tied to statistics♔, but he gives a lot to the team and is a very important player.”

Gabriel Jesus is technically incredible

Gabriel Jesus may not get the credit he deserves due to the🌠 fact he𝓰’s not the most prolific striker in the world, but make no mistake about it, the man is one of Arsenal’s best players technically.

He’s a bag of tricks and he has a remarkable first touch, and it’s🔯 hꦆard to even imagine how good he would be in a training session where technical ability is more important than anything else and the pressure is off.

Unfortunately, Jesus hasn’t quite had the desired impact at Arsenal this season a🌳s he’s been hampered by injuries once again, but if he can get back fit and firing, he will, once ꦰagain, be one of Arsenal’s most important weapons heading into next season.

Jesus is a remarkably talented player, and hopefully, we get to see🐲 him back to his best next term.
