Calvert-Lewin has now netted seven times in his last six appearances, making him one of the most in-form players in the Premier League as he shines for Leeds United.
By comparison, Gyokeres has just 5 for league leaders Arsenal as he struggles for goals since joining the Gunners this past summer due to his lack of confidence in front of goal.
Can Gyokeres learn from Calvert-Lewin
Gyokeres scored a remarkable 97 goals in 102 appearances for Sporting before switching to Arsenal but has not found his feet in North London.
Speaking on The Rest is Football podcast, Lineker has revealed that the Swedish star could learn something from Calvert-Lewin who can’t stop scoring.
"I've watched him (Gyokeres) quite closely the last few weeks and I think he's like most strikers, is one that waits to see where it's going, the ball, waits until it's crossed and then attacks the space.
“That's what defenders do, as a striker you got to gamble on where you think the ball might go and you go just as they're about to cross it. You steal a march on the defender that way and lots of the time the ball won't go there, but I don't see him doing that very often.
“Dominic Calvert Lewin did a perfect example of how to do that for the Leeds goal at Sunderland, perfect. He didn't wait and to see where it was going to go. He went right, I pulled away and then he sprinted at the near post and hoped that the ball would be delivered there and it was.
“I don't see that too often from Gyokeres at present, the players that score big numbers will do that. You know, (Erling) Haaland, (Harry) Kane, (Robert) Lewandowski, they know how to make those kind of moves into those spaces. Is it something you can learn? I've always thought yes, but because it's actually common sense because it's law of probability when you think about it."
Gyokeres will have the chance to prove himself once more as the Gunners face Aston Villa at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night in a game that could turn his season around.
