The TRUTH about Viktor Gyökeres, Europe’s most-wanted striker

День тому

The upcoming summer will see clubs across Europe fight for Viktor Gyökeres, the man who has more goal contributions than both Harry Kane and Kylian Mbappé at the moment. After quite a few years in England without making a Premier League appearance, he found success at Coventry before exploding this season at Sporting. So, who is Viktor Gyökeres? What are Gyökeres strengths and weaknesses? Have his performances warranted a Gyökeres Arsenal transfer? Here is a Gyökeres scouting report, with help from Danny from All Things Alvalade!

He’s been spoken about as the next big thing here in Sweden for a couple of years. Brommapojkarna is my local team, like the ground and training facility is a 15 min walk away from my mother’s house where I grew up. It’s crazy how much talent they have developed considering the club hasn’t been doing too well for a while. Also you did ok with pronunciation the 2nd time.

@ruipereira6165 Місяць тому

As a Sporting fan, it has been really a joy to watch Gyokeres play. He is an absolute viking of a monster. But an comparison that I can make to a player that we've seen in the past is to David Trezeguet. A player that rarely offers in the defensive contribution of the game, but in the offensive aspect he is always at right place at the right time. Whether is with one on one confrontations or the power shot to the back of the net. Like I said, very similar to David Trezeguet.

Now imagine Jardel who scored 52 goals in 39 games for Sporting in 2002. We won league and cup double and he won the european golden shoe. Monster!

@AquadesignAquascaping 4 дні тому

Jardel was a completely different player, he was a target man, if the players feeding him were good jardel would just bang in goals for fun, but thats all he would do, he would not run at defenders, open space for team mates or help with pressing. Jardel was the best goalscorer i ever saw in Portugal, eusebio was retired by the time i was born and CR7 made his goals away from Portugal, back in the day having jardel was a 90% chance of winning the league, in portugal he won 4 in 5 both for porto and sporting before his personal problems caught up with him and his career went into a steep decline. Jardel was a bigger goalscorer, but Gyokeres is the better all round player. And when it comes to sporting we can't count out Bas Dost he also scored a lot of goals, he just played for weaker sporting team than Gyokeres.

Hopefully our new manager finds him and Isak a better role, and now with Gyökeres our attack looks really good.

Fica o desafio, venha aí um vídeo sobre um jogador do FCP! Eu proponho, Alan Varela, que parece estar um pouco a ter um efeito semelhante na sua equipa àquele que o Enzo teve no Benfica. O facto de ambos virem do mesmo contexto de afirmação em gigantes do futebol da Argentina e a forma como facilmente assumiram papéis determinantes em 2 grandes da Europa, não será com certeza um acaso… Cheers!

Coventry made him the player you see now. It's down to avi viveas our assistant manager and coach even though he wasn't keen on Mark Robins paying 1m for him. Lisbons opening offer was 12m lol but our owner played a blinder getting 20m plus 15% sell on clause. This is good business for coventry as he only had a year left on his contract. Another who got sold with one year left on his contract was Gus Hamer was our star midfielder who went for 15m to sheff United who are getting thrashed every week and are bottom.

@kasimirtg4375 Місяць тому

It wasn't oversight from EPL clubs. It was finances. Most of the mid table clubs that he would have started at didn't have funds until late in the window. Wolves had a very serious interest in him, would have bought him, but couldn't spend the money on a player of that caliber until after the Nunez sale. And we can see now with Everton and Forest that that decision was the correct thing to do.

@divinesync7036 27 днів тому

He ticks all arsenals boxes for a striker perfectly

@fieserfactsack9635 Місяць тому

its extremely fun watching gyökeres highlights. But maybe he isn't the right guy for Arenal. Maybe it is Kai Havertz growing into the 9 at Arsenal, since he can be a target man, he can play with his back to the goal and link up, he is very versatile. I think depending on Arteta wanting Rice on the 6 or the 8 that open slot will be the first area Arsenal will target a major signing on. It's crazy to think Arsenal unlocks Havertz. Chelsea couldn't do it in 3 years when he was the biggest german talent of all times right before he joined them. Of what you guys describe Gyökeres would be an ideal target for Tottenham or Bayern (to the left of kane).

Arsenal need a player like Gyorkeres badly, but imo if Amorim ends up at Liverpool wouldn't be surprised if they come in for him. A striker partnership between him and Nunez would be interesting to say the least. If Salah ends up leaving there would definitely be room for him if you shuffle the team around a bit.
