Viktor Gyokeres: The Swedest Thing

[ArsenalInMyHeart]

there is any reason behind why he didn't play ?

Probably his agent offering him to Barca ....

Did anyone reliable report on that?

All over Swedish and Barca media a few weeks ago. He's not happy being second choice to Kai.

 

[dashsnow17]

Wasn't the right sort of game to bring him on tbh.

Cos it wasn’t Thursday night 5-a-side?

 

[Trilly]

He had an awful preseason no doubt but you kind of have to feature a guy if you want to sell him. Either of these first 2 matches were perfect for him to grab a goal or 2.

Let’s not repeat this mistake of tanking a guy’s value again. Please Mikel/Arsenal.

Let’s think half full.

Gyokeres is not good at many aspects of football, this is true. But, he’s one of our best finishers.

Last season he had absolutely no space. I can’t recall more than a handful of open shots. With Bruno, he will have open space. Bruno will see his runs, and direct his runs because Bruno is so progressive.

Look out for this combination this season.

 

[Flying Okapis]

Anyone thinking it has something to do with his fitness?

He looked slow and heavy last season, he's built like a tank but gets brushed aside easily by defenders.

I wonder if there is an imbalance in him which the club wants to work on and he isnt ready for the season yet.

Alternatively, Arteta just thinks hes dogshit..

Suppose we will find out soon.

This is what im hoping for.

Remember when Gabriel missed the opening games after being linked to a move away? Might be something like that.

If Gyok reacts the same as Big Gabby we'll get a monster up front.

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

With Bruno and Ode behind him. Even Eze and Tzolis from the left wing maybe there is hope we can extract a bit more quality from him up front.

Bro he cant do nothing with those runs. Just watch him all of last season. He was found multiple times, and 9/10 physically or technically he isn't good enough to make anything of it.

He stands out so much in this team and our technical quality isn't even that high.

We need to be honest he lucked out ever being at a club that played at this level. He is a low tier PL striker.

I was just thinking about this but remembered it was to fit Thomas Partey in at RB so he could grow into a different role and got PTSD

Into the final third, not deep runs, he’s not fast enough.

 

[Xln]

At least he wouldn't have run offside and missed it, after Bruno's pass.

 

[fabregooner]

Glad he's here instead of that little rat Alvarez. I think he'll have a big season.

 

[GunnerRocket]

Still prefer this guy as a footballer to Eze. Much would rather have Gyok/Kai than Alvarez who was going to always be a ticking time bomb (as was Vinicius).

 

[TakeChillPill]

He had a poor pre season. But let's not get it twisted in his first season here he's hit double figures the first player since Auba to do so. And that was where we were playing off scraps.

His shots to goal ratios is one of the best. With tzolis and Bruno around in the team now I expect our chance creation to go up a level.

He's a better CF than Kai. A CF scores goal. Everything else is secondary.
