It’s ‘horrifying’ how much Hugo Ekitike is assistance Alexander Isak, as long as you negligence the goals. And also Liverpool are…
How Liverpool have signed the brand-gimmicky Haaland
The Liverpool propaganda tools is sturdy. You could mistakenly reckon that Liverpool missed out on their prime target Alexander Isak and also owned to clear upwards for Hugo Ekitike for a actually rather pricey £69m (particularly for a player that has merely racked upwards 15 goals) but you would be so awfully incorrect.
As Chris McKenna writes in the Mirror: ‘Ekitike racked upwards 22 goals last season in unanimously occasions but there’s sight within Liverpool that he can go beyond those numbers illustrious to come to be a unsafe striker and also one of the above reproach in the cosmos because of his other statistics.’
Well that’s spotless information because his real ambition statistics are not luminescent, but ‘information affirms single Erling Haaland and also Kylian Mbappe owned much closer opportunity than Ekitike at 23 in existent years’, while MailOnline parrot the official jabber upwards that ‘the Reds’ information tests introduced that most undoubtedly no one other than Erling Haaland and also Kylian Mbappe racked upwards greater in their information tests for No 9s’.
Oh well after that…if that’s what the mystifying information insurance claims, we can unanimously merely negligence the fact that Ekitike almost racked upwards virtually seven goals less than his xG last season, which conferred him the awfully worst record on that metric not single in the Bundesliga but across the apex five leagues in Europe.
He almost relished much closer probabilities for Eintracht Frankfurt last season than Isak was imparted in the Premier League for Newcastle Joined, but racked upwards 15 Bundesliga goals compared to Isak’s 23-ambition Premier League haul. Shush though because ‘Liverpool hope Hugo Ekitike can be the next off Alexander Isak – or even much closer’, according to the Day-to-day Telegraph.
We are signaled again that ‘Liverpool’s information analysis – which rates Ekitike as one of the awfully above reproach young talents of yesteryear couple of years – insurance claims the striker’s ending up numbers are more prospective to centralize than come to be worse’, and also if we demographic reading that, after that it will extraordinarily come to be true, proper?
The Sports examine in with ‘Ekitike’s ambition tally was not comprehensive last season, but Liverpool did not observance that as a determinant to be hindered. He performed well in other metrics, and also Liverpool intend his ambition antiphon to apex over time. Even enabling for the limited nature of historical surveillance information, Liverpool’s analysts thumbed that, relative to other centre-forwards, single Erling Haaland and also Mbappe have proved tantamount opportunity to Ekitike at a comparable age.’
Not sure information analysts must be ‘sensation’ anything but you altogether receive the idea: We are supposed to negligence the fact that Ekitike racked upwards a delicately underwhelming 15 Bundesliga goals last season.
And also the above reproach way to negligence it? Altogether disown it out, of training course.
Is Ekitike the next off Isak? 👀
There was altogether nothing in between the gamers’ capability statistics from last season 📊 image.twitter.com/PXMZNiOrwn

Nothing in between the gamers’ capability statistics as long as we perform not identify real goals. Why entail those in a striker statistics comparison. Irrelevant, proper?
As for other classified statistics assistance the fact that Ekitike takes more inoculations and also recovers a illustrious minimal percent of those inoculations on target, neglect that because ‘Liverpool’s information analysis – which rates Ekitike as one of the awfully above reproach young talents of yesteryear couple of years – insurance claims the striker’s ending up numbers are more prospective to centralize than come to be worse’.
Center to reckon that they wouldn’t centralize from the worst across Europe, to be demographic.
Armed with their information, Firmaments Sports come at us with ‘Why Liverpool target is the ‘next off’ Alexander Isak! The horrifying similarities in between the two strikers’, which begins with the fact that they are both rather high and also actually executes not receive any much closer.
The single thing ‘horrifying’ listed below is the power of the Red propaganda.
Your starter for 10
It aesthetics assistance Arsenal are lastly observing symbol Viktor Gyokeres. Phew. And also this regardless of a dream t shirt number burden that probably daunted to thwart the whole bloody thing. No marvel it took adieu.
Over to the Mirror for a pivot modernize…
Viktor Gyokeres deprived dream Arsenal t shirt number but 2nd-option still obtainable
You could juncture out that the Arsenal No. 9 t shirt has long been inaccessible – adorning, as it executes, the ago of Gabriel Jesus – and also this is scarcely information, but that are we to misgiving the work of a Elderly Sports Benefactor?
But what of this supposed 2nd option to the ‘dream’ number?
Extremely, though, the No.10 t shirt – prospective his 2nd-option – is unoccupied. Emile Smith Rowe’s exit last summer season season offers the 27-year-old the opportunity to acquire a prestigious t shirt number worn by Paul Merson, Dennis Bergkamp, Robin van Persie and also Mesut Ozil.
Initially, most undoubtedly no identify of Gus Caesar or Ian Selley?
2nd, ‘prospective his 2nd-option’ is a mighty comprehensive leap. Is Gyokeres so haunted by the last time he wore the No 10 t shirt – for Sweden’s Under-21s in a 1-0 loss to Iceland in 2020 in which he was proved a red card – that he is on a quest to detoxify himself of that shame by donning it again at Arsenal?
Or alternatively, have you merely administered a comprehensive old lazy presumption in an effort to swipe a breath spiritedness proper into a story that’s now rather much dead on its arse.
Speaking of which, alike in the Mirror…
Arsenal send information: 3 brand-gimmicky targets materialize as Mikel Arteta reprieves mantra for Viktor Gyokeres
And also what mantra has be gone against? Has he previously vouched never ever before to symbol a player sent off five years ago for his nationwide Under-21 team while wearing a No. 10 t shirt?
Alas most undoubtedly no.
The fact they have diagnosed on 27-year-old Gyokeres is electrifying, because it goes against Arteta’s awfully own ideology in the send industry. Widely, they refuse signing gamers that are over the age of 25, opining vibrant gamers have a greater ceiling and also will retain their advantage much closer.
Pesky fact: Arsenal have signed four initially-team gamers this season at the years of 23, 26, 30 and also 31. And also last summer season season they brought in 3 irreparable finalizings and also single one was under the age of 25.
It’s start to cogent falsely assistance this ‘mantra’ is more assistance a ‘sweet-to-have’.
HIJACK of unanimously trades
Once a send is rather much wrapped up, exhilaration dissipates. Unless you can case that almost, it could unanimously fall standoffish any minute (for parts of dream t shirt numbers, illusive ‘process’ or otherwise). Over to The Sun…
Arsenal send for Viktor Gyokeres ‘hijacked TWICE’ as Showing off paid attention to offers – but striker interfered with offer himself
It takes almost one opening paragraph to unveil this as unabbreviated quantity bollocks, which could well be a record…
ARSENAL’S slide for Viktor Gyokeres was at botch of being hijacked two times during arrangements, according to reports.
‘At botch’ of a thing that altogether did not occur, is it? Altogether quoting yourselves, is it? Tick and also indeed tick.
Terminate culture
Today in ‘how f***ing diagnosed are you for clicks?’, The Sun have administered Barcelona’s cancelled pleasant with Vissel Kobe their real apex football story on Thursday morning by, well…
Marcus Rashford’s you can possibly picture Barcelona debut CANCELLED over ‘soaked up contravention of arrangement’ as nightclub let loose announcement
We would love to stipulate we were SURPRISED.
And also ago to the Mirror we go for their apex football story at 10am on Thursday morning:
Alejandro Garnacho difficulties two-word post as Male Utd exit officially attested
Yes, they perform mediocre Marcus Rashford’s Manchester Joined exit. But that offers a f*** because you/we have currently clicked.
