That’s what it’s all about. It’s going to be very nice to see them in the stadiums as well.”BEST ONLINE CASINOS – TOP SITES IN THE UKGettyGyokeres has explained his move to Arsenal[/caption]Gyokeres has signed a five-year deal worth around £300,000 a week at Arsenal.The former Brighton, Swansea and Coventry forward has been handed the No14 shirt at the Emirates, made famous by club icon Thierry Henry.
