The Brazilian netted his eighth goal in his last five games, and his 15th for the season, as City hammered the Clarets in their FA Cup fourth-round tie at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
In the wider picture, City have scored 30 goals in seven games this year, all of which have been won, and Jesus says they are hungry for more.
The 21-year-old said:
“I have started this year on fire, I think, (and) not just for the goals.
“I think I help the team on the pitch, I work hard and I think I play well when I go onto the pitch.
“My focus is to do this and I am so happy that I scored goals because I am a striker and I need to score goals.
“When we score the first goal, we want to score more and more, and to play well and win the games.”
