‘So Underrated’ ‘Our Fanbase Doesn’t Show Him Enough Love’ Fans Hail Arsenal Star Who Made 6 Clearances And 2 Interceptions Against Spurs

Arsenal defender Gabriel put in a commanding performance as the Gunners secured a huge win against arch-rivals Tottenham on Sunday evening.

The Brazilian kept Harry Kane quiet, whilst making six clearances and two interceptions as Mikel Arteta’s side kept a clean sheet in the 2-0 victory.


Supporters on Twitter wanted to hand Gabriel some recognition for his fine display, with many feeling that he hasn’t been give enough credit for his contributions this season:

Alongside William Saliba in the centre of defence, Gabriel has been one of the key reasons why Arsenal have managed to sustain their title challenge.

The Gunners have the second-best defensive record in the Premier League, having conceded only 14 goals in 18 games. Gabriel’s physicality and decisiveness in challenges gives his team some much-needed solidity, which has often been lacking in past campaigns.

If they are to go on and finish top of the table, the likes Gabriel and Saliba will have played an integral role in making it happen.
