The right decision was made. Unfortunately most of our fans have no foresight
In the pressure moment yesterday in front of a baying Metropolitano, Gyokeres had ice in his veins. He stepped up and delivered. Never shirks responsibility
Sesko was the 11th penalty taker in a loss to Grimsby town. He was scared
There's an enormous difference in mentality
Sesko is heralded (even if he has fewer goals than viktor) whilst playing once a week in a no pressure environment
It's where Sesko can thrive. He wouldn't thrive here with the stakes the way they are
Sesko has grown up all his life with people fawning over how incredible he is. We don't need that here. It doesn't build the eye of the tiger
Gyökeres is an older man who's had to fight, lose and suffer while coaches told him he'd never make it and yet he did. Now that, is the right mental fit for an Arsenal team striving to achieve. No one believes in us bar ourselves. Are we big enough to fight adversity? I'd rather do it with a soldier like Gyokeres. Thats what berta saw
Our own fans make compilations mocking him, the media don't give him an inch and the coach does not even try to build around him. Weaker men would break. Not Viktor though. He's heard it all before. He didn't break as a child, you think you'll break him as a man? No chance!
Hes the perfect mental fit for this Arsenal team. A story of true struggle and rising above the odds. Something that resonates with Arsenal at this point too
So many don't want him as our hero. But even both them and Arteta deep down know how much we need him

🚨 Arsenal explored different options for the striker position last summer. Andrea Berta held reservations over the Benjamin Sesko deal, especially when factoring in salary, bonuses & commission. The Italian spearheaded Arsenal’s pursuit of Viktor Gyökeres, though he would have proceeded with Sesko if instructed, but made plain he considered it a bad deal. In the end, Arsenal and Mikel Arteta aligned with his recommendation. ❌🇸🇮 [@gunnerblog]
