I'm happy with either. Gyokeres is the lesser risk and a better all round player. Sesko is more targetman, penalty box aerial threat.
Tbh I'd with DJ - would be happy with either. Both have positives in different aspects, but both are an upgrade on our current options which is the main thing. I think I'd lean towards Gyokeres as I think he'd be more likely to hit the ground running and I think he's more different than what Havertz offers than Sesko is, but happy with either.
Think Gyokeres is more the finished article whereas Sesko would be more of a project. Both are a gamble for different reasons.
I am not happy with either. I think we overpaying on both of them. There is need to get a striker in at Arsenal no doubt. The market for strikers is narrow and complicated.
Gyokeres has better stats but comes from a League that isnt competitive enough.
I am not watching enough of both of them to built an opinion. Whenever I watched Gyokeres I am disappointing. Watched more of Sesko and besides scoring spectacular goals here and there he disappeared a lot in some games.
I have no clue and hope Arsenal make the right decision.
Not happy with either? Overpaying? Both are around 50-60m aren't they? That isn't a great amount.
Who do you want, or should we stick with what we have?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Of what I heard Sesko cost more than Gyokeres. You are talking of pound not EUR? It's a lot of money for someone who I am not convinced of personally.
One of them will be at Arsenal next season. I am sure of it. We need a striker for sure.
I think Arsenal will go for another winger as well and they will look after someone that fits to the chosen one as well. Expect a decision between Sesko and Gyokeres soon.
Logical thing is sell Havertz who is well thought of in Germany and buy both.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
No one will buy Havertz.
Or another option is to keep Havertz and give Sterling another year and wait for Gykores to become available at a lower price after the WC / Sesko to gain more experience
Both come with a risk. I just personally think the Slovenian is a more rounded player and for his age will be a better value for the circa £62 million it will take to get him out of Germany.
As said, I reckon our dossier for Sesko is fatter as we have monitored him for the better part of three years.
I will not complain if we get Gyokeres but believe Sesko will be the better fit and value long term.
Neither. The club should be doing whatever it takes to bring Isak. Every player has their price and Newcastle are a much smaller club than us. The club are at a stage in their project were a world class striker needs to come in. We're a big club, board needs to act like it.
If they fail to brink in Isak, then there's no reason to bring g in both Gyokeres and Sesko. Liverpool just threw €125 million on a player.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Newcastle have no reason to sell Isak except we offer them like150m pounds. The guy for now is unbuyable except he's run down his contract to the last year or he has a mediocre year next season. We're short on numbers in attack and can't spuunk it all on one player.
Why does Osimhen seem to have dropped off people's radar? He's just had a fairly relaxed season in Turkey, and you'd think Napoli might drop their asking price compared to where he was rated when he won the Scudetto there.
OP has it the wrong way round. Sesko is raw and doesn't link up well. Just compare the Expected Assists between the two! Gyokeres (7.44 - 94% percentile in his league) and Sesko (4.5 - 61% percentile in his league).
Sesko though has better physical skills, which maybe more effective in the Premier League. He has a more powerful shot, is taller, stronger and can jump higher.
Gyokeres is ready to go and more developed to replace Havertz.
Sesko still needs to improve linking, just look at the lack of accurate passing, Sesko (68% pass completion, with 574 passes attempted), Gyokeres 74% pass completion, 642 passes attempted). Havertz in comparison has 80% pass completion and we know he isn't all that good at passing.
So it all depends on how Arteta feels about Havertz. If Arteta thinks that Havertz is his starter he is more likely to go for Sesko to replace Jesus. But also within financial reason. Leipzig over reaching on Sesko's value, may push Berta/Arteta to say feck it and let Gyokeres and Havertz fight it out over the starting spot.
I personally feel Gyokeres is a better option and we need sell Havertz to buy two strikers. Maybe Delap and Gyokeres.

Fair point. They both have their strengths and I see you did not factor their heading prowess for which Sesko is way better.
I will take either of them, just feel with Gykores, we will be looking for another striker in three years as his physical based game wanes with age.
