Nah he gonna be a hit - have seen his movement and when we click as a team its game over !?
These guys play like they don’t know how to play with an actual predatory striker
The attack has been nerfed.

Darkseid walking out the tunnel to lead our team in a Batman costume… think i can dig that…
I hope he scores because ‘Arsenal doesn’t know how to play with a striker’ ‘Arteta doesn’t know how to use a striker’ is a narrative I know will be exhausting to hear.
Been one pre-season game.

Unless he hits a hat trick a game that’s going to be crowbarred into our coverage. Otherwise they have nothing to replace “Arsenal need a striker”

He’s going to bury the chances Havertz fluffed last season. I’m not hating on Kai, but Viktor is a more of an instinct striker, he’ll also barge his way into the 6 yard area with only one thing in mind.
And one thing that hasn’t been discussed yet, we’ll finally be able to put two up top when we’re chasing a game. We’ve not been in that position for a few seasons due to injuries and a lack of depth.
I predict we will see Gyokeres on the wing at some point this season.

Even if he scores a hattrick, the cunts at Sky and TalkSport will just keep drawing comparison tables between himself, Isak and Haaland.

He’s played as a wide striker on the left so it’s a possibility, I’ve seen him drift out there a lot with Sporting. We’ve amassed a lot of players who can roam around; MLS, Timber, Nwaneri, Saka, Odegaard, Rice, Havertz, Trossard. Maybe that will be our unexpected quality this season.
Good grief if Gyokeres starts out wide and we draw a game or something.
The terminally online fanbase will self-immolate.
Of course they’ll drag me down by bringing up Max Dowman or something so I won’t be spared.

If Dowman isn’t playing because Merino is playing up top….
It’ll be seen from space.

I look forward to your meltdown when Gyokeres is played on the left-wing to make way for Havertz as a false 9 and Max Dowman plays as our No.10 in place of Odegaard, all announced and justified by an Eduardo Hagn tweet!
Call me terminally online if you want (I am) but that will be a travesty. Fucking nerds

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if we deploy a team like this at some point and it gets results.
Maybe the one advantage this Arsenal team has is that there are so many ways to line up and approach a situation.
The million dollar question however is whether it’ll work.

It is not “making way”, it is how the team set up.
If we start Viktor, we need to use another tactics. Quick possession, open up space for him.
Right now, we stuck in the middle. We bought a player that is not suited to our current tactics but manager not (yet) changing it for him.
