I’m struggling to keep defending Vik, I know they don’t play to his strengths sometimes but even when he gets in the open space where he was so good for us he seems to trip over himself. Shows how big the step up is, thought he’d be doing a lot better.

I had my reservations to be honest. Didn't doubt he could play in prem. Just wondered about the elite in Europe which is different

Arteta has constantly praised Vic for his contribution off the ball that creates space for others. Vic is coming back from a bad injury. Top teams in the PL rotate especially if players are coming back from injuries. He is doing fine.

Praising a player for what he does off the ball is manager speak for acknowledging theres a problem with him not contributing with the ball.
Its still early days of course, but Arsenal have a big problem with fitting Gyokeres into a style of play that doesn't suit him.
