Yeah that's a big blow for us especially when he was the main man in our attack. Jesus is expected to return in January so it will be like 2-4 games without him. Nketiah will start in his absence but he was the guy who created a lot of pressure on opponents for us. Well have to work it out somehow and just keep the lead intact throught these games. Martinelli and Saka are playing WC too so hope we don't have to hear some more bad news on top of this now.

Up until mid-January, Arsenal games aren't that hard, except maybe vs Newcastle which might be challenging. Just after they will face Spurs and ManU. These three matches are a key ones and important to win to avoid being catches by City.
Hopefully he can recover soon..
So far, Newcastle have played well, especially since they made it into the top 4 of the Premier League standings in the first half of this season. I don't believe they will be able to continue this positive trend in the second half of the season, so it is very likely that they will drop out of the top 4.
Newcastle moved slowly and steadily to the top 4. Obviously they can drop from there if the other teams, mainly ManU, Chelsea and Liverpool, will keep positive results but did you trust them to do that? I am not very optimistic about that.
