Overview

• Alan Shearer highlighted Gyokeres’ runs in behind against Olympiacos, noting his role in Martinelli’s opener and a shot off the post.
• Arsenal beat Olympiacos 2-0 to maintain a perfect Champions League group record at that stage of the campaign.
• Mikel Arteta said the striker is “doing better and better” and called his overall display exceptional despite five games without a goal.
• Jermaine Jenas argued Gyokeres looks less technical than Arsenal’s creators yet credited his penalty-box movement as a long-missing tap‑in threat.
• Bukayo Saka took a penalty against West Ham with Gyokeres on the pitch after reports had named the Swede as designated taker, and Kai Havertz’s eventual return is expected to increase competition for the role.
