Viktor Gyokeres has become the Ikea Gerd Muller with ridiculous Sweden run
· Football365
Gyokeres cannot stop scoring for his national team. It’s quite the contrast from his Arsenal career.
Underwhelming, second choice, not good enough. These are all reasonable ways to describe Viktor Gyokeres’ Arsenal career so far but put him in a Sweden kit and he suddenly becomes one of the best strikers around.
Gyokeres cannot stop scoring for his national team. A goal against Romania on Monday was his fourth in as many matches. He’s scored in every game of this elongated international break.
He’s on 25 goals for his country now, putting him 11th in Sweden’s all-time top scorer list and with a better goals-per-minute ratio than all but two players ahead of him, and those two were born before the Second World War.
