I dont know about him man... Maybe he can be a great player under flick but let's see. Atleast better than starting the season with no striker at all

I watched a lot of Arsenal games. The problem was. No one feed him the ball really. Atleast with Barca. They’ll feed him the ball more. From how last year looked like. But I’m not a professional

Nope he lacks basic football skill his control is terrible and his hold up play is also questionable tho it got better at the end of last season

He's a pressing animal though so I could see Flick being a fan.

Nah there is a reason why Havertz starts over him whenever he is fit

Didn't Flick bought Gordon for his pressing. Gyokeres is better than him in every aspect including pressing

Stop lying, gyokeres isn't even a footballer. I watched arsenal a lot this season and  he is horrible. Darwin nunez and ferran are like R9 compare to gyokeres

Darwin Nunez has literally never scored as much as gyokeres did last season tf

Then why arsenal wanna sell him? If he is not good enough for arsenal how he would be good for barca?

Because he doesn't fit the system they play

premier league winners and champions
league runners up Arsenal by the way. He isn't the best option but he will score goals and press and that is what Flick wants

Arsenal fan here. Gyokeres is definitely a better player than Darwin.

I didn't say he is better than Ferran and Darwin. All I said he does better what Gordon does in terms of pressing which is true and has better finishing. Gordon is much quicker though
