Not Thomas Partey, not Xhaka: Gary Neville says Arsenal 25-year-old star impressed him

Gary Neville has said on his podcast that he loves Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus, but he believes that Manchester City star Erling Haaland is much better.

The former Manchester United star has said that Jesus has been brilliant for Arsenal since his move from Manchester City in the summer transfer window.

The Sky Sports pundit has said that he loves the Brazil international striker.

However, City striker Haaland is at a whole different level to Jesus, according to Neville.

The Englishman made the comments about Jesus and Haaland while alluding to the following tweet from fellow Sky Sports pundit and former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher.

Neville also watched Haaland destroy Manchester United in the Manchester derby today.

The Norway international striker scored a hat-trick, as Manchester City eased past the Red Devils at the Etihad Stadium in the Premier League game.

Jesus was in action for Arsenal in the North London derby against Tottenham at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.

The striker was among the goalscorers, as the Gunners won the Premier League match against Spurs.

The 25-year-old has scored five goals and given three assists in eight Premier League matches for Arsenal so far this season.

Haaland has scored 14 goals and given three assists in eight league games for City so far this campaign.

Neville said: “Gabriel Jesus has been brilliant, and I love him to pieces.

“I loved him when he was here, I love him at Arsenal, but this is a different stratosphere of player, and that’s not a criticism of Gabriel Jesus.”
