Teddy Sheringham backs Arsenal man to score a lot of goals this season

Premier League great Teddy Sheringham has expressed his confidence in Viktor Gyökeres, backing the Swedish striker to succeed at Arsenal following his recent move from Sporting Club. The forward arrived at the Emirates during the last transfer window after an impressive spell in Portugal, where he established himself as one of the most effective strikers in Europe.

Sheringham’s Backing for Gyökeres

Since joining Arsenal, Gyökeres has shown glimpses of his ability, although his performances have not yet reached the level of consistency expected of him. Despite this, Sheringham believes he has the qualities to thrive in English football. Speaking as reported by Metro Sport, he said:

“Viktor Gyokeres is a very good player. I think he’ll score plenty of goals for Arsenal this season. They have lacked an out-and-out striker for a few years, but from what I’ve seen so far of him, Gyokeres looks like the real deal and could produce a lot of goals for the Gunners.”

Sheringham’s remarks underline both the anticipation surrounding the player and the belief that he can fill a role Arsenal have been missing for some time. His presence provides Mikel Arteta with a natural centre-forward capable of leading the line, offering something the team has long been searching for.

Adapting to the Demands of the Premier League

While the Portuguese league gave Gyökeres a platform to showcase his talent, the Premier League presents a greater challenge. It is widely acknowledged that English football’s pace, intensity and physical demands are considerably higher. For that reason, expectations of him scoring at the same rate as in Portugal are tempered, with few anticipating that he could reach forty goals in a single season.

Nevertheless, Gyökeres has already shown encouraging signs, scoring important goals and adapting steadily to his new environment. His style of play, marked by strength, directness and intelligent movement, suggests he has the attributes to become a decisive figure for Arsenal.

As he grows more accustomed to Arteta’s system and develops stronger chemistry with his teammates, Gyökeres is expected to improve further. His arrival has given Arsenal an additional dimension in attack, and with time, he has the potential to become a prolific scorer for the club.
