Serb Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Remember when we valued Sean Longstaff £50 million? That is exactly how £35m for Gordon sounds to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should be the one current untouchable that they should be looking to make a key piece of their team. Iirc he's from the Liverpool academy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Wouldn't even take Gordon to use his face in an emergency to cut through concrete to save children stuck in a bunker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consortium of one Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I quite like Gordon. I don't think Everton will sell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattoon Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I get why people don't want him, he's a very unlikeable character, rat faced cheat. Everton would be mad to sell him unless they intend to spend 23/24 in the Championship. As much of an anticlimactic event as it would be if we did happen to sign him, there's no denying he's a better option than we have now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sushimonster85 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Gordon is exactly the type of player we all hate, nasty little rat-faced bastard... till we sign him, then everyone else hates him and he becomes our nasty little rat-faced bastard.

We usually have high standards of handsome fuckers gracing the black and white. Although we’ve started down a slippery slope with the signing of Pope.

He's already starting games for France who have probably the strongest national side in the world. He has 3 full seasons behind him. Obviously at his age there is clear room for growth too but there is output and reputation in the here and now. Gordon has only really had half a season of looking like a promising PL player. I rate him and he's showed a lot of promise but it's not a sure thing. I think 35 million is a big gamble. Looking at Grand Old Team it's a mix of 'take the money' or wanting to keep him purely out of principle as they dont want another player to leave or wouldn't want to see him come to us. This is where I am as well. Gordon has caught the eye when I've watched him, but there's no substitute for cold hard stats. I haven't seen enough of him to know that he'll produce goals or assists on a consistent basis, whereas Diaby's stats are too good to be a fluke.

Deuce Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Gordon is still a prospect when we really need someone on the right side who can hit the ground running on Day 1. Unlike striker, for example, where an Ekitike or Broja can spell Wilson and continue to develop. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Jinx Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Haven’t seen much of Gordon but first impressions.. huge engine, fast, great work ethic and a total handful. He plays mostly on the left though? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
