Fans have made up their mind on Sporting Clube de Portugal striker Viktor Gyokeres after his performance against Arsenal.
On Tuesday night, Arsenal continued their UEFA Champions League campaign away at the Estadio Jose Alvalade against Portuguese side Sporting.
The hosts are currently in transition after losing manager Ruben Amorim to Premier League giants Manchester United last month.

On the night, Mikel Arteta's men were in a rampant mood as goals from Gabriel Martinelli, Kai Havertz, Gabriel Magalhaes, Bukayo Saka and Leandro Trossard sealed a 5-1 win. Goncalo Inacio was the scorer for Sporting.
Prior to the match, a lot of talk centred around striker Gyokeres, who has been linked with a move to the Premier League after yet another fine start to the season.
It has been recently reported that the 26-year-old Swedish international has set his sights on a move to United for a reunion with Amorim.
After struggling against the Gunners, fans have made up their mind on Gyokeres.
On social media, one fan said: "Gyokeres value must've dropped by £10m."
Another tweeted: "Gyokeres this is not a good look brother."
A third fan added: "Gyokeres is not that guy. Most clubs would dodge a bullet."
Someone else wrote: "Gyokeres..he is not that guy."
A fifth commented: "People really thought Gyokeres was good man he’s so overrated."
Gyokeres struggled to get into the match, having only managed 18 touches in the first half against a strong Gunners defence made up of William Saliba and Gabriel.
Speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live after the fifth goal, former Everton and England midfielder Leon Osman said: "Arsenal are outstanding again. It's a brilliant run from back to front from Jurrien Timber and then he passed it to Mikel Merino.
"Kai Havertz does well to jump out of the way of Merino's shot and it might have put the goalkeeper off slightly. He just palmed it right into the middle and Leandro Trossard was there to nod it in."
As a result of the win, Arsenal moved up to eighth place in the Champions League table.
