All this talk of selling Gyokeres to get Alvarez is madness. He helped win us the League in his first season, scored 21 goals in all competitions (14 in PL), and has a tremendous work-rate and attitude. Love the guy.
We should 💯 be trying to sign Alvarez - but keeping Viktor.
🚨Gabriel Martinelli responds to speculation surrounding his future. ❤️🤍
“I’m an Arsenal player, and that’s where my focus is. I don’t want to pay attention to all the background noise because there will always be rumours.”
“I genuinely love being at Arsenal. This club has given me so much, and every time I step onto the pitch, I give everything for the badge.”
“Of course, football can be unpredictable. If one day circumstances change and I have to leave, it would be a very sad moment for me because this club means a lot to me.”
“But right now, I’m happy to be here, and my full focus is on helping Arsenal achieve more success.” 🔴⚪️

🔴 Viktor Gyökeres reflects on the sacrifices behind becoming an Arsenal champion
🗣️ "I always dreamed of playing for a big club. From the early days, that was the goal - to test myself at the highest level."
🗣️ "The early years in England were tough. Brighton, the loans at St. Pauli and Swansea... many wrote me off. But at Coventry I found myself again. That mentality got me through."
🗣️ "At Sporting it exploded - 97 goals in 102 games and two league titles. When Arsenal came calling, I knew it was the moment I'd been waiting for. The negotiations dragged and I even missed pre-season to force the move. It was worth every second."
🗣️ "During that whole saga my personal life took a hit too. I broke up with my girlfriend because I wanted to cut all ties and fully commit to the move to England."
🗣️ "Arriving at the Emirates wasn't easy. The Premier League hit hard. But I stayed true to myself. I play mostly through instinct. That street-football background still comes out - running in behind, battling for every ball and using my power and movement."
🗣️ "A lot of people expected me to score in England the same way I did in Portugal. But the Premier League is different. You barely get space to shoot. Every week you're facing top defenders, so you have to adapt and find different ways to make the difference."
🗣️ "That challenge made me a better striker. The goals started flowing. I scored over 20 in my first season, built great partnerships and helped Arsenal win the Premier League. Going from a Sporting hero to an Arsenal champion means everything to me."
🗣️ "Now I want to score 40 goals for Arsenal this season and help bring the Champions League trophy to the Emirates. That's the next level we're chasing."
Can Viktor Gyökeres hit 30+ goals this season and help Arsenal win the UCL? 🔴⚪
🗣️ Theo Walcott: “You can support England without supporting Arsenal, of course, but it’s impossible to ignore the contribution Arsenal players are making to this national team.
From Bukayo Saka to Declan Rice and the rest of the Gunners contingent, they continue to step up in the biggest moments and play a huge role for England.
I think they deserve far more appreciation for what they’re bringing to the country’s football right now.” 🏴❤️🔴⚪️
Great win by England with so many top performers (esp Rice, Bellingham, Madueke, Anderson.). But my MoM was Captain @HKane who was immense from start to finish, scoring goals and throwing his body around to defend shots too. What a leader! 👏👏
It is simple: If the West continues to ban great artists like Ye, then he will smash records in cities like Istanbul.
If it continues its policy of ruthlessly smearing and creating hurdles for podcasters like myself and others— then we will share our voices on stages across countries like Russia.
The West cannot continue to pretend to be the symbol of freedom and progressivism while suppressing and punishing those who dare to criticize the genocide in Gaza.
Bolsheviks failed in the East and migrated to the West. The people realize that now.
They will inevitably fail again.
