LEANDRO TROSSARD claims the return of Gabriel Jesus is the X-factor which could land Arsenal the Premier League title.
A hat-trick of first-half assists on Sunday against Fulham from Trossard meant Jesus could be eased into his first action since suffering injury playing for Brazil in Qatar during the World Cup.
And with Arsenal five points clear with 11 games to go, it will keep the rest of the Gunners’ strikeforce on their toes for the remainder of the season.
The trio of Trossard, Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka have kept the goals flowing in the absence of the 50m former Manchester City striker.
But the added competition for places, together with the psychological boost of seeing the return of a player who was on top of his game at the start of the season, can only help Arsenal.
