odizeey: We like to overthink things in this club. Hehehe
Gyokeres knows how to score. We should be focused on his strengths rather than weaknesses. One of his strengths is being at the right place at the right time. A striker that you can give a through ball and watch him do his thing. Hehehe.
This might be funny but one thing I noticed in FC25 is that they typified almost all the players correctly. I no too sabi play but if I play with sporting the guy dey deliver.
Just watch the video Ep12 shared and you will begin to wonder what is in the video that made him to start doubting Gyokeres.
eghos12: Wait o I did not say Gyokeres is a bad player am only saying that when his purple patch comes can will cool down and handle it and not crucify him.
From this clip you posted, one can see that he is adept at making runs into channels, taking on his marker and finishing...Forget about some of the misses, the ability to find himself in such positions is one thing Hojlund and Zirkzee lack at the moment...I remember when we had Chicharito, with his positioning and movement, he would always find himself in the right positions. However, once you take him off, it will look as if we suddenly can not create chances again because his replacement does not have the same skillset he possesses.
Jamiuokolaa: I would prefer a striker in the mould of Osihmen because it appears his qualities would still come through for him to an extent..... even in an environment that isn't too conducive.
The "Strict" Amorim's Tolerance limits regarding the Nigerian's significant Tik-Tok/Social media presence is another leg entirely.
Again, maybe if Gyokores was a bit cheaper than the prices we are hearing sha..
In all, nothing is guaranteed - na till the players reach here before we go fit know.
toluxe0075: You are right. Man Utd should stick with Hojlund and Zirzkee. Gyokeres with over 50 goals in all competitions last season is really poor. He can’t even even dribble to score or score with his head, something Hojlund and Zirzkee are very good at. All Gyokeres knows how to do is score goals with his legs which is not what Man Utd currently need in a striker.
My brother I tire o! I really want to see the videos they watched because I have watched a lot of his videos and a couple of games.
Jamiuokolaa: He might score a few like this here and there but it seems his major strength is positioning and awareness in the final 3rd.
Also worthy to note that 12 goals thereabouts from whatever tally he had in the Portugese league came from PKs. With Bruno as our setpiece taker, Gyokeres might not have the chance to boost his confidence with PK goals during a rough patch.
He might be an upgrade on our current strikers but i doubt if he would set the PL on fire the way he did in Portugal.
Maybe if he was joining Man city, the story would probably be different sha
eghos12: I just watch some of his YouTube videos God, he is just like other strikers no unique thing. Gone are the days we could see strikers beat a man and score. And also he has a very poor header technique. 1 goal in his last 20 attempts
Please share the videos you watched let me see because the Gyokeres I watched is adept running at defenders and scoring all types of goals. I agree he is not that prolific in the air, but then, it's not like we put a lot of balls into the box.
Some of you are big-time haters. You were celebrating when one clown said the completed section is not up to 30km, yet someone went ahead to show that it is indeed 30km, and you are angry.
How you are praying for your country to fail while wishing you make progress in your respective lives beats me...
metodman: I have some reservations on Gyokeres. I just hope he proves me wrong
From the few games I have seen, I think he is a very good CF...He is adept at drifting out wide (Left side) and running at defenders. He's good on the ball, scores free kicks and is very dependable from the spot.
2019 Wimbledon final, someone mentioned it the other time. Federer lost 2 championship points,and lost the game in the final Tiebreak 13-12 to Djokovic.
That was one game that Federer lost only on the scoreboard, but dominated in every other aspect of the game. Had more points, and was superior in all other aspects.
If there was going to be a shared championship, that should have been the game!
I remember that final...I think this one is right up there too...
You just can't predict who will win it, I have gone from Sinner to Sinner to Alcaraz, then Alcaraz and now, Sinner...
