Viktor Gyokeres failed to find the net against Manchester United in his Arsenal debut and his ability to record a shot oon goal has left some onlookers concerned over his prospects

Arsenal striker Viktor Gyokeres endured a frustrating Premier League debut at Old Trafford as the £64 million ($87m) summer signing failed to register a single shot during his side’s 1-0 win over Manchester United.

Ruben Amorim denied us the ‘battle of the new No.9s’ we were after from the off at Old Trafford, with Benjamin Sesko’s introduction after 65 minutes meaning he and Viktor Gyokeres were never on the pitch at the same time.

Pundit Gary Neville was impressed with Viktor Gyokeres despite the Arsenal striker failing to score against Manchester United.

Gyokeres joined the tour in Singapore on Sunday and received a warm welcome from players, staff and supporters alike. He was presented to fans before the 3-2 friendly win over Newcastle United there, and received a rapturous ovation.

Arsenal started their Premier League campaign with a 1-0 win at Manchester United on Sunday, capitalizing on a defensive error during a game in which both sides failed to generate a lot of quality attacking chances.

In a flurry of sharp finishes, Gyokeres appeared to win a finishing drill between the trio, who were all taking shots one-on-one, and both Saka and Madueke seemed very impressed. At the end of the contest, Gyokeres walked over to his new teammates and said, “three in a row”, before then shaking the pair’s hands.
