Let it go lol
Let it go lolOne thing that I'm still not over is that if he could score a penalty we'd be top of the league
I love him so much.
when it was still 0-0 tonight he was passed the ball somewhere near the halfway line. There were about 5 Posh players near him and no support. He didn't shit it, lose the ball or play it safe. He held one defender off, turned another then headed straight to goal and managed to get a reasonable shot away. Proper centre forward play of the like I haven't seen at city for a long time.
Absolute steal at double the price.
An inspired signing. Wasn’t 100% sure of him last year - showed potential but didn’t fully click. We don’t get to see how he performs in training so it was difficult to see the full picture. I’ll say it again, there’s a concern about how we’d do if he gets injured / suspended. On a positive note, it was good to see Walker make a couple of “Gyok” style runs down the channels when he came on so it might be that we are working on that aspect in training with him.A big unit of a man who's mobile and can dribble and iss scoring goals, he's going to be worth a fortune
Edit: depends if you count Zlatan but he’s just a f-in freak of nature. Would love it if Gyok could spend some time in training camps with Sweden with him.An inspired signing.

We’ve had some good strikers recently who have great touch and movement and finishing (McNulty, Godden) but it’s the physicality angle that put Gyok on another level for me.
I’ve spent a couple of minutes looking at the Sweden squad (sad, I know). Perhaps only Isak should be ahead of him IMHO out of the latest squads. I might be wrong.
To me, Gyok plays like a German type striker, probably his time with St Pauli the reason for that.
If Gyok starts starting and performing regularly as a full international, keeps banging in the goals at this level, then I fear it’ll be one of the big Bundesliga that come knocking, they seem to have been picking up and developing quite a few young players from U.K. teams of late.

Was really uninspired by the signing in the summer - turns out I know fuck all about football! Looks markedly sharper and all the better for it.
If we are still up there in January let’s put a cheeky bid in for Swift!
Yeah the vast majority had already written him off based upon last season.Peak SkyBluesTalk with conversation of him being our best striker since relegation when only a few weeks ago he was getting absolute pelters for daring to take a penalty. (The person I quote below isn’t alone, gyo gets absolute abuse on the whole thread)

Agreed, there was enough there at the end of the season to show what he was about.I was really pleased when we signed him. Showed potential towards the back end of last year that suggested he could be a decent player at this level. Don't think anyone could have predicted just how good he has been.
I was hopeful given his last few performances last season but for the majority of his loan spell I thought he was a cart horse - that mix up between him and biamou when they were both clean through…and that he couldn’t even get in the side for a while. Also, seemingly useless at Swansea, and the Brighton fans reports I read were less than complimentary.Was really uninspired by the signing in the summer - turns out I know fuck all about football!

He won’t unless he switches allegiance to Sweden! Or are you talking about if Gyo goes to Dortmund?!I don’t think Erling Haaland will be worrying about his place just yet!

Ah, of course!!Der BVB of course
So good I'm already worrying about fact he may be sold if we don't get promoted.
I am just happy that kids and adults alike can dream about promotion to the prem for another few days tbhEnjoy it while he’s here and if he does get sold it’ll be for the type of price that lets us replace him and others on top.
I got a really good feeling from him last year and said as much when we signed him. Direct and physical we have sort of had in some players. Add in able to hit the net and that makes a great player!
Then I also said I didn't see Allen improving so don't get them all rightalso I still think walker will play a decent part this season.
Weve got an embarrassment of riches up front!Then I also said I didn't see Allen improving so don't get them all rightalso I still think walker will play a decent part this season.
I liked his intensity when he came on last night - he’s ahead of Godden for me.They will all need to when suspension and injury sets in. Walker I think will be a bit frustrated at playing a bit part so far but his time will come
