Look at Gyokores's goals most were not struck cleanly! A goalkeeper is expecting a ball to fly in a direction that's predictable, any deviation and they struggle to stop it.This is part of the point, he clearly makes very clean good contact with the ball but you still make the point of it potentially being a miss kick. Why not just take it for what it is, a clean well taken penalty instead of searching for a way to make it look poor and unintended.
The problem is he is becoming a hero to some and a target to others.He has also become something of a cult hero amongst the fans. He will only get better and is already doing well in his first season.
I said 20+ by end of season...seems to be heading that wayHe could be very special as im not sure he is anywhere close to using all his attributes to the maximum capacity. But if he sharpened up on his movement off the ball and his 1st touch gets better he wil be unplayable at times. Good player and still so much room to improve on, his stats will be very good by the end of this season. Constantly improving which is a very good sign
How many goals and assists is he on on all competitions this season?
15G and 10A by end of season and we might have double silverware!16 I think 11G 5A, top of the charts for us in both.
Gyokeres first full season was 17 goals and 5 assists. Wright is on course to beat that and I must say Gyokeres was impressive that year.16 I think 11G 5A, top of the charts for us in both.
90th percentile for tackles but yet still gets called lazy on here by someA good time to get this out again.
An elite championship striker in several aspects.
You wouldn’t sell him for anything less than £20m in today’s market. The championship is proving a reliable league in producing players capable of scoring in the Prem. Toney, Mitrovic, Watkins, Gyokeres and more have demonstrated this.If he keeps playing and scoring as he is at the moment then I reckon he could be worth £10 million + by the summer. The only reason I do not put a higher figure forward is because, at the moment, no-one knows if he is up to Premiership standard. If he is able to prove that he is - hopefully with us - then he could easily be worth double that.
I think I mentioned Crouch at one pointI agree. That and his long gangly legs and height.
The comparison with Peter Crouch that someone else made is a fair one. Because Crouch scored a lot with his head and looked ungainly a lot of people underestimated his ability on the ground and I think the same is true of Haji.
He has obviously adapted well to the Championship in his relatively short time with us and I believe that the best is yet to come.

Yes Vik was a one man attack at times. He seems to be scoring very different goals at Sporting this year as they're presumably not set up to basically sit back and give him the ball like we were last season.
Imagine him with this version of O'Hare behind him, would amazing to watch at this level (not that I'm complaining about Wright).
It would be special, just imagining him in this side.
Wright Gyokeres Saka
O'Hare
That's winning the league, no doubt.
I’d prefer Torp alongside SheafWith Hamer alongside Sheaf
It's good to dream
I’d prefer Torp alongside Sheaf
My god. Look who seems to be on LW tonight. I hope my comment didn't get back to MR and he thought it a crackerIs there any chance Haji could play as well on the right as he does the left? If so, then Tats could get a rest and perhaps JDS on the left in with Bidwell at LB
I’m looking forward to the mental gymnastics already.Gyokeres first full season was 17 goals and 5 assists. Wright is on course to beat that and I must say Gyokeres was impressive that year.
Thought he had a decent game tonight.
Looks really down in the dumps though generally. Wonder if there's something not right for him behind the scenes.

Think we've got two number 9s that want to be the man . As long as they play together and support each other when one is firing and the other isn't then we've got goals in the team
Almost like players come into form at different times ...Been funny, all our goals seem to come from one or maybe two players at a time.
