Despite the Swedish forward’s well-documented struggles in front of goal since his big-money move, KSI insists that Gyokeres acts as a crucial "magnet" that unlocks space for his teammates, arguing that the Gunners simply look a better team with him on the pitch.

Gyokeres vs Jesus: Who should be Arsenal's main striker?

Arsenal extended their lead at the top of the Premier League last weekend by picking up a point at Nottingham Forest while their only two title rivals, Manchester City and Aston Villa, both lost. However, the dour 0-0 draw at the City Ground, which was only enlivened by a late row over a disputed penalty shout, raised some serious questions over the visitors' attacking threat, given it was their second consecutive scoreless stalemate, after being held at home by Liverpool the week before.

How Arsenal left Man Utd 'stunned' by Sesko transfer decision

Manchester United were reportedly 'stunned' to learn that a deal for Arsenal-linked Benjamin Sesko was on last summer. The Slovenian international looked set to swap RB Leipzig for the Gunners, but Mikel Arteta's men swooped for prolific Sporting CP star Viktor Gyokeres instead.

Martinelli & Gyokeres wasteful in lethargic Arsenal draw

Arsenal missed the chance to move nine points clear of second-placed Manchester City at the top of the Premier League as they played out an underwhelming goalless draw at lowly Nottingham Forest.

Fans baffled as Arsenal goal stands despite identical Haaland 'offside'

Fans were left puzzled after Arsenal's opening goal against Chelsea in the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final was allowed to stand on Wednesday night, despite Manchester City having a strike disallowed the day before for a similar infraction from Erling Haaland against Newcastle United. Robert Sanchez flapped at a corner which allowed Ben White the simplest of headers, but Viktor Gyokeres appeared to be in an offside position as he tangled with Marc Guiu, who was defending on the line. The Gunners ended up claiming a 3-2 victory at Stamford Bridge, handing Mikel Arteta's side a strong advantage as they bid to reach the final at Wembley.

Arsenal took a big step towards the Carabao Cup final by edging past Chelsea 3-2 in this dramatic, all-London semi-final first leg, but Mikel Arteta's side will be left feeling they probably should have put the tie to bed having twice seen a two-goal lead pegged back at Stamford Bridge. Goals from Ben White, Viktor Gyokeres and Martin Zubimendi had the Gunners in control throughout this topsy-turvy contest, but a second-half brace from substitute Alejandro Garnacho ensured Chelsea have something still to play for at the Emirates in three weeks' time.
