I hope you have seen the difference between King Kai and Viktor Gyökores in the box. If you haven't here is a basic explanation.
First touch brilliance.
King Kai receives the ball, makes a perfect and light first touch, intelligent as it is, it gives him the space and beats his opponent, while retaining position.
He now has the ball, and on a one on one situation simply because of how he handled the fist touch. He then shoots with an inner-foot, thigh spread like the technique of a penalty shoot.
He scores!
Viktor Gyökores, obviously, will make a heavy first touch that makes him lose possession, distance on the ball, while also retaining position with his opponents. He is only good on tap-ins.
This was a tight game, and it has been won by classic King Kai. We needed a player like him to break the ice, especially when Viktor's only shot was a baby and Sunday League one!
Have a good morning! 60 million down the drain, Kai Havertz scores again!

🚨🔴 Daniel Sturridge stated that Viktor Gyökeres struggles with offside calls like the one today because he lacks consistent service from his Arsenal midfielders ✅:
"The reason why he's offside there is because he's not used to receiving that pass at that time.
When you've got the center halves who have the ball, you typically see them on the halfway line. They're playing it around.
The midfielders should be the ones playing those penetrative passes in the middle of the pitch.
He rarely gets those balls because of low blocks and things of that nature.
But he's always got to ensure in his mind, like, I need to expect that they're going to do it.
That was one of the moments where that's where he wants to receive it.
Back to goal, can turn right away and then get his shot off. That's where he needs to be."

@henrywinter You tried to ruin Ben White’s life and campaigned for the whole country to screen and boo at him, resulting in even his family being harassed.
Your Arsenal opinions are irrelevant. You can GTFOH.

@PaddyArsenal If you are struggling, you don’t understand football and should just watch and enjoy instead of assessing players. Martinelli has been excellent all season.

@BigBearKentlaar Gyokeres is rubbish. 17 goals across all comps for a CF isn’t good. Too slow, too unintelligent.
Havertz scored the kind of goal Gyokeres should be last night. Great run whilst Gyokeres was nowhere.
We need Havertz back to full fitness and sell the Swedish lump in the summer.

@henrywinter Shut up with your agenda. Trent Alexander Arnold can’t defend. He’s a liability. Useless player.

Few players could conjure up a cross as Trent Alexander-Arnold did for Kylian Mbappe against Bayern in the Bernabeu. Few could see the perfect place to put the ball for Mbappe let alone execute the pass. Alexander-Arnold could. Vision and technique. Other countries would celebrate such a talent. He’s won the Premier League and Champions League with Liverpool. He now starts for Real Madrid. Yet can’t make a 36-man England squad for a couple of friendlies. Neither of which England won.
Alexander-Arnold did show why the watching Thomas Tuchel has concerns about him defensively. Few expect England’s head coach to pick him in his World Cup 26. Reece James, fitness permitting, and probably Tino Livramento are Tuchel’s right-back picks. But Alexander-Arnold showed the huge reward that goes with occasional risk. His dead-ball delivery and crossing are world class.
Can Tuchel really leave such a game-changing talent behind? He probably will. And there will be crunch moments in the knockout stages, late on in tight games against far more testing opposition than England swanned past in qualifying, perhaps even in a penalty shootout, when England will regret not having Alexander-Arnold's right foot to kick-start their recovery.
His club-mate, Jude Bellingham, showed at the Bernabeu why he has to start at 10 for England at the World Cup. Big-game player, came on and brought more menace to Real. His strong personality, technical and physical qualities are needed in pressure situations. Tuchel has exceptional options at 10, and Morgan Rogers is a Tuchel favourite, but Bellingham is world class. He has to start. #ENG #RMCF #RMABAY

@dejesusofficia Yes, we can. Martinelli is a great player and still only 24. He has 17 goals and assists this year, largely as a rotation player, playing less than 2000 minutes of football. Magnificent season for him so far. Only morons who know nothing about football attack him.

@now_arsenaI @afonso_fonsie Odegaard has been shite. Just like everyone else. Ridiculously poor first half of football.

@ArsenalNews_Hub Thought I had blocked your useless account with made up nonsense.
Will get to that now.

🚨 | Arsenal hierarchy send clear message to Mikel Arteta 👀
The club’s top leadership are unhappy with the recent drop in form that led to the Carabao Cup final defeat and FA Cup exit.
However, sources indicate the board are not concerned about missing out on domestic cups — their full focus is on the Premier League.
Arteta has reportedly received a clear message: performances like that cannot carry into the league run-in.
Failure to deliver the title could see the club reassess their stance moving forward. 🔴⚪️🔥

@HarrisonHSmith You seem almost as useless as that David Knight guy. I bet you are one of those libertarian fools.

The only reason Iran is not bombing American bridges and shooting up American hospitals is because they know this war is deeply unpopular here, and that is to their advantage.
Trump is basically daring them to do it and gambling with all of our lives.
Alex Jones@RealAlexJones
Imagine if Iran bombed and destroying the Golden Gate Bridge in California. What would you call the act? The USA-Israel the “aggressors”bombed and destroyed Iran's tallest bridge, the B1 Bridge. This will only unify the Iranian people against Israel and the United States. This is not what Trump ran on and this is not what we voted for…

@Kennzyrock @ArtetaEra You are clearly unable to watch football objectively. Martinelli was decent on the night.
English

Martinelli was the worst player on the pitch par with Jesus. He didn’t use his brain for even once . Every decision he made was a wrong one .
Norgaard wasn’t bad to be honest with the way the game went . Havertz did try a bit and gave an assist. But you see Jesus and Martinelli with MLS , I have no words for them .
English

@ArtetaEra Fans with no brain to think got themselves.
Martinelli did quite well actually. Probably the best player after Dowman.
