Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus has expressed optimism that the Gunners can rival Man City for the Premier League title in the coming season.

The Brazil international believes a lack of experience was his team’s undoing as they surrendered the Premier League title race to Pep Guardiola side.

“It’s difficult to know (where we fell short) but I believe sometimes at the end of the season, we were a little bit nervous as a team,” Jesus as quoted by Football Insider.

“They were not nervous as normally they win so that made a difference. This season we have experience of this and it will be different.”
On the difference with City, the striker said: “Even before, I was feeling like that the gap was not that big.

“They (Man City) are together years and that made a difference. Winning for years made a difference also.

“The year I arrived (at Arsenal) I believed we could fight and win. Unfortunately we didn’t win but I think we will win, for sure.”
