He is the main reason why we lost to WestHam and Newcastle because Of His fake injury’: fans tears into ONE Arsenal player who hasn’t played game for Arsenal in their last five matches now due to injury but accept the international call to play for His country
The Arsenal forward hasn’t played for his club for almost three weeks as he deals with an injury issue. He sustained a hamstring problem during the Gunners’ Champions League win at Sevilla on October 24 and has not be included in a matchday squad since.
The Brazilian has been working on his recovery and had to deal with a watching berth at the weekend as Arsenal saw off Burnley at the Emirates. Despite that Brazil have called him up and their medical team will decide whether or not he can feature during the international break.
Arteta recently suggested Jesus needed more time to recover when asked about playing for his country. He told ESPN : “I don’t know. I’m going to talk to the doctors and him because he didn’t do any training with us. He’s far from working with the team, but it’s an internal communication between the club and the national team. The first intention is always to seek the best for the player.”
Arsenal have been able to keep Martin Odegaard in the capital with their skipping nursing issues around his hip and concussion. It means he will miss Norway’s fixtures against the Faroe Islands and Scotland, but is expected to make a playing return once the Premier League resumes.
FIFA rules state countries are entitled to call up players and assess their injuries themselves with Brazil opting to bring Jesus into the squad before making their own decision.
