Wright speaking after the game stated:
“Arsenal need goals. They need goals from wherever they can get them from. Unfortunately for Forest, we gave them a bit of a beating today, but that’s what we need.”
“We need people getting in the box, taking opportunities to shoot and score. We’ve got five goals today and our centre-forward [Gabriel Jesus] hasn’t scored.‘Everybody is talking about it. You’re hoping it’s just something.”
“He’s got a couple assists, but we want our centre-forward scoring as well. Jesus had a very good chance [in the game]. He’s got to hit the target there. He’s just in that form at the moment. He looks a little bit clunky.”
“He seems to be attracted to the ball. There’s no reason for him to do that. I’d rather he stayed up there [leading the line].We’ve got enough players to do that. He can make runs. That’s where you want him.”
