Summer Transfers 2025 Missed Opportunities and Regrets

[HCZ_Reborn]

Gyokores pisses all over Sesko (who supposedly Arteta wants) and is on a par with Isak (who we won't be getting), but considerably cheaper (around £68m by reports)

He is a direct CF, which is what we need rather than an 'he plays here but could probably play there' type of player.

Does he? based on what criteria. The Portuguese league is so inferior to the Bundesliga that a goal scoring comparison is not really a fair assessment. I’m far more impressed with the technique and strength of Sesko to be honest.

Direct centre forwards are a bit of a rarity and the reason for that is for one reason or another they’ve gone out of style

Gyokeres for me I expect at best to be at the level of a Teemu Pukki (would be great for a mid table team) and at worst either a Mateja Kezman or Mario Jardel.
