EPL: 'Life goes up and down' - Sweden coach, Potter sends message to Arsenal star

  • On Wednesday, Sweden manager Graham Potter sent a message of encouragement to Arsenal striker Viktor Gyokeres, urging him to ignore criticism over his challenging start to the 2026/27 season.
  • The 28-year-old has struggled for minutes at the Emirates this season, making only one Premier League appearance and starting once in the Champions League, while Kai Havertz remains Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta's preferred option.
  • Defending the forward, the 51-year-old manager emphasized that top players face scrutiny, citing his 21 goals last season which significantly contributed to Arsenal's Premier League title victory.
  • Potter included the forward in Sweden's squad for upcoming Nations League fixtures, promising to provide the "best conditions" to help ensure he can continue to perform as a top player.
  • Gyokeres will play four matches with Sweden against Romania, Poland, and Bosnia & Herzegovina before returning to Arsenal for a home game against Leeds on October 10th.
