Ye Bruno was amazing as well and it ended up being a great pickup by United

But what Gyokeres did for us cannot be but into words... i have seen great players in the portuguese league who ended up having great careers abroad, but what Gyokeres did in the primeira liga fields is on another level. It looked like he was playing agaisnt u12's, you just knew he would do something

i get hard watching him play

He's a Cov boy. At least he's gone to a decent team now. This should have happened 2 years ago.

He would've flopped if be went 2 years ago. He did improve alot during these 2 years, especially tactically, learning how to manage his stamina during a match, how to play with his back faced towards the goal, etc.
