Arteta warns the opponents of the Premier League, the signature, the Gyokerres “destroy” them
Mikel Arteta pulled a warning shot to the rivals of the Premier League d’Arsenal, insisting that Viktor Gyokerres will be a nightmare to defend against if she gives space.
The Swedish striker, signed with Sporting CP this summer for 64 million pounds sterling, opened his account for the Gunners during the 3-0 Saturday victory against Athletic Club.
His first goal at Arsenal Colors came in the 34th minute, when he got up to meet the MartÃn Zubimenddi cross and guided a head in the net.
Bukayo Saka and Kai Havertz added to the score, sealing a comfortable victory that puts Arsenal well for the opening match of the first League next weekend against Manchester United.
The first strike from Gyokerres will have withdrawn the pressure from his shoulders, because expectations are raised after his prolific fate in Portugal.
Fans already hope that the 27 -year -old will be able to reproduce his score exploits in English football, Arteta clearly showing how dangerous the new arrival can be.
“All he does is on instinct,” said the boss of Arsenal. “This is why he has scored so much in recent seasons. These are objectives, there is a threat, he pind central files and when you leave it with the 1V1 space, he will destroy you.”
Arsenal supporters had a glimpse of these qualities against the sports club. The Gykerres movement has constantly disturbed the defense visiting, while its ability to link the game allowed others to prosper.
The partnership with SAKA, which provided assistance to the late objective in Havertz, seemed particularly promising.
The result has closed a positive pre-season for the Gunners, who seem clear and ready for competitive action.
Liverpool and Manchester City are widely planned to be the main Arsenal Challengers in the title race, but Arteta clearly said that his new striker will be a key weapon to try to outdo them.
With Manchester United by visiting the Emirates next weekend, all eyes will be on the question of whether Swedish can have an immediate impact in the league. If his first goal is something, it could be the beginning of a prolific campaign in northern London.
