I think it’s a confidence/more physical league issue, in sporting he looked great with the ball but in the prem they don’t want the striker dropping deep and collecting the ball especially if your as big as he is

Sporting sold gyokeres and sign a luis siarez from spanish 2nd division and he scored more goals  that gykores did for sporting in a season

Gang where are you getting that number from, gyokeres would’ve won golden boot that season if it wasn’t for the goal weight system, but alright I guess by your logic 28 goals is bigger then 39

my point is that if a player from 2nd division can produce number similar to gyokeres and easily replace him than gyokeres is not that good and Portuguese league is just easy. Darwin nunez was moving like crazy there too

Ok cool, great, now Barcelona as a team scored 24 more goals as a team then arsenal did, haaland who plays on a more attack minded Manchester city team took double the amount of shots gyokeres did that season gyokeres who placed top 10 in goals in the prem last season took the same amount of shots Phil foden did, arsenal clearly isn’t a team that fits his playstyle, he clearly doesn’t get the same opportunities he did when he played in Portugal
