How Dominic Calvert-Lewin put £64m Viktor Gyokeres to shame: Gary Lineker picks out 'perfect' example of where Arsenal's struggling striker is going wrong

Gary Lineker has pinpointed a key area where Viktor Gyokeres needs to improve to boost his goal return for Arsenal amid his struggles this season.

Gyokeres scored a staggering 97 goals in 102 appearances for Sporting Lisbon in a two-year spell at the Portuguese club, figures which convinced Arsenal to sign him for £64m in the summer.

The Swedish forward has been unable to achieve a similar return in the Premier League, scoring just five times in 15 appearances for the Gunners.

Two of those goals have come from the penalty spot, with four coming against relegation threatened Burnley, Nottingham Forest and Leeds.
