It's a perfect move for us. I think he will shine in that league and that could result in a big money move to the premier league and us getting a decent sell on.Some big games here
Best I've seen here since PL relegation , and was fantastic here for 2 seasons , this season he just went to another level .. Will smash Portugal I'm sureBest all round forward to play for us at Championship level since premier league relegation ? Discuss
I'm talking performance wise at this level
Unplayable at times , like an old fashioned 9 , so hard to play against
Can't be any better ?
What bet ?Who won the charity bet then?
It's €24m....that respected journo fell has reported it?No one actually knows what the actual offer is
Nah he'll fill his boots against 70% of the teams in that league. Smart move for him at this stage. Gives him a platform at a big club in an average league. Plenty of players have moved from Portuguese teams to massive clubs after a few good seasons. Good chance he'll get a big move in a season or twoWhat a price. Not a twinge of sadness when I read those figures.

He gets no more than 10 goals next season at Sporting.
Agree and when he does we will be quids in again! Fantastic deal for us. Best of luck to him though, been absolutely fantasticNah he'll fill his boots against 70% of the teams in that league.

He’ll be €24m in the same way Simms will be £8m.It's €24m....that respected journo fell has reported it?
Yes, some people are taking it as 24m plus add-ons, but it's probably including add-ons. Either way, we are paying quite a small fraction of it for Simms, who may not be quite so frighteningly direct, but has qualities I've never seen in Gyokeres.He’ll be €24m in the same way Simms will be £8m.
I know I’m coming from a place of speculation / ignorance, but there’s no way Sporting are paying €24m without a significant proportion of that being add ons or even wages thrown into the mix to inflate the impression of the deal.
Same way as we’re clearly not paying £8m for Simms for the same reasons.
Or maybe I’m just wrong and naively refuse to believe that we’re paying & receiving these sums!
Absolutely desperate to pretend he’s shit just because he’s left. Embarrassing.What a price. Not a twinge of sadness when I read those figures.

What sort of sell on do you think we have? 10% or more?Agree and when he does we will be quids in again! Fantastic deal for us. Best of luck to him though, been absolutely fantastic
Yes , Vik was brilliant for us and we're going to miss him. Think Simms will be different. Only hope the bottle jobs on here who wanted Vik gone for peanuts give him timeThanks for the memories vik. Hope sporting win the league

Absolutely clueless. Have you ever had an opinion on here that wasn’t utter bollocks? They’re not paying 24m for him to be second choice. They’d have thoroughly scouted him so know all of his strengths and weaknesses. I think their scouts, coaches etc know more about how he will fit their style than you doNo idea how you've got that from my post.
You can think he's one of our best players in 20 years and still think he won't go on to be successful.
If you've watched him for Sweden, you'll know what I mean. We devoted our entire playing style on him and it worked perfectly. If he's second choice, he won't be effective.
Like I say, bookmark it. Laugh at me if I'm wrong, but I'm not convinced he'll do as well in a bigger pond.
Sporting haven’t paid €20m for him to play second fiddle to anyone.No idea how you've got that from my post.

Let's have a think about it.
@KenilworthSkyBlue is completely missing.
@SBT is praising the deal and hoping no one calls him out on the cuckold behaviour so long as he plays along and acts like it was always what he was going for.
Two weeks ago both were arrogantly telling others we would be business stupid to not take the first offer. We've since added about 7 million to that by simply knowing our and Gyökeres' value.
We could also go at @fernandopartridge and @shmmeee but I have a bit more respect for them so happy to leave them out of it for now.
Page 65-80 of this thread are absolute gold. It's bedwetting heaven. I would advise anyone to go and review before some of those posts get inevitably deleted.
At the end of the day we should have had a bit more respect for Gyökeres and how much he would be appreciated for other clubs. His development alone could now fund a proper squad that could get us to the PL. Shame on anyone who was willing to sell him at the first offer. I'll never take them seriously again.
Agree with a lot of this but still think you should leave your fantasy with SBT being your cuck away from the forum..Let's have a think about it.
