""I think it was amazing. It's always hard to play against them. They have brilliant players," Jesus told Sky Sports. "They come here all the time, they hurt us. And it was clear early in the game they were trying to delay the game. Everyone could see that. "The mentality of the team is really, really growing and each game is growing even more and I think we are winning today because of the mentality.""
""I said after the last game when they asked me about him [Gabriel], the moment he stepped on the pitch you could see the difference of our backline," Jesus added."
Arsenal defeated Aston Villa 4-1, moving five points clear of Manchester City and ending the calendar year top of the Premier League for the seventh time. Gabriel Jesus scored the fourth goal and registered his first goal since January 1. Gabriel Magalhaes converted a Bukayo Saka corner after an Emiliano Martinez error; Magalhaes was making his first start since November and has 19 Premier League goals for Arsenal, the most by any defender since his debut in September 2020 and second overall to Laurent Koscielny (22). The victory was the biggest margin between two top-three sides since April 2023.
