Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus has snubbed Tottenham when identifying the Gunners' main threats in the Premier League title race.
The north London outfit head into the World Cup break top of the table ahead of reigning champions Manchester City by five points. Mikel Arteta's side are the only team in the English top-flight with a 100% home record and have lost just one league game so far this season.
Jesus left City in the summer transfer window after completing a £45million transfer to the Emirates Stadium, a decision which looks to have paid off for the Brazil international. The 25-year-old has struggled to continue the brilliant goal scoring form which he enjoyed at the start of the season, failing to score in his last nine matches in all competitions. However, he has still proved to be a key signing to improve Arsenal this season.

Jesus was influential in the Gunners 2-0 win against Wolves which moved them further ahead of City at the top of the table and discussed Arsenal's Premier League title rivals who could threaten their potential success later this season. The Brazilian said: "We cannot look to others.
"We know Man City , obviously I know them more than most of the people. But we have to do our job. We know the Premier League is not easy, it is the toughest league in the world.
"It is not only Man City - it is Liverpool, Man United, Chelsea. What can we do? Just focus on ourselves that is all."
Jesus failed to namecheck Arsenal's north London rivals Spurs before pointing to the togetherness in Arteta's squad as a crucial factor for the brilliant performances this season. Jesus added: "First of all it is because of the team.
"I think everyone can see the spirit of the team and the way we love each other. The way we want to help each other on the pitch.
"That is what happens when you are in another family. We spend more time here than home. Everyone is like this.
"That is why it is working outside. We have a young team so we run a lot - with the ball and without the ball."
