Ian Wright has leapt to the defence of one Arsenal star in particular.
The North Londoners have made a good start to their Premier League campaign and currently sit in third place in the table but are only one point behind the leaders Liverpool.
Despite this some have have taken to social media to criticise their Brazilian striker, Gabriel Jesus.

After featuring five times in the league he is yet to register a single goal or even an assist and some Gunners think it’s time for him to be moved on.
But, Arsenal legend, Ian Wright has defended him and explained why he is important to the club.
‘Can I just say something about Gabriel Jesus because I feel the need to support him right now,’ Wright said on his podcast.
‘I really, really do. I know there’s a feeling that we may have outgrown him but remember when Gabby came, he was a leveller, he levelled us up.
‘Arsenal are at a certain level now but we will definitely need him at some stage so I think it’s important in this moment for the Arsenal fans to support him.
‘They have to get behind him. Don’t be frustrated with the way he’s playing, he’s trying so hard at the moment and we’re going to need him.
‘We need to make sure we give him confidence because he’s won this [the Premier League] four times. He’s been clutch in many situations before.
‘Listening to the murmurings and the way the fans are… please man, back this guy, stay with him.
‘He wants to do so well and it’s just not happening right now but he needs support, he really, really does.’
