Gabriel Jesus was absolutely incredible in his home Premier League debut for Arsenal on Saturday afternoon.

The Gunners beat Leicester City 4-2 at the Emirates Stadium and Jesus directly contributed to every one of his side's goals.

The Brazilian was named in the starting line-up and he opened the scoring in the 23rd minute.

Jesus found space inside the box and curled a delightful effort past Danny Ward and into the top corner.

It was a fantastic way to open his account for his new club.

He notched his second 12 minutes later as he headed home when unmarked at the back post.

Jesus then turned from goal scorer to provider as he assisted both Granit Xhaka and Gabriel Martinelli's second half strikes.

With Arsenal 4-2 up in the 85th minute, Jesus was taking off and was given a standing ovation by the home supporters.

It was a superb performance by the 25-year-old but he really should have had a hat-trick.

He made his way into the box in the 37th minute but was dispossessed just as he was going to have a pop at goal.

He also missed a golden opportunity to score in the second half. With the goal gaping, Jesus missed the target from close range with his left-foot.

And Jesus showed his elite mentality in his interview after the game as he conceded he should have scored three.

When asked whether he should have had a hat-trick, Jesus said: "Of course. For sure. I work all day, every day to score goals.

"The ball from Aaron [Ramsdale], I did well. When I went to shoot, the defender came back quick.

"After I had another chance where I could have scored... I'm a little bit sad because of this."

What a great attitude to have. Jesus was brilliant in his side's convincing win, but he knows he could have performed even better.

It's early days - but Arsenal's decision to sign Jesus in a £45m move from Man City this summer looks to be a masterstroke.

He has started the campaign on fire and is a major reason why Arsenal have won each of their opening two Premier League games.

The Gunners are looking to return to the Champions League this summer. They last played in the competition in 2017.

With Jesus up front, Arteta's side have a great chance of qualifying for Europe's premier cup competition this season.
