Coffee_Johnny Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 I’ve a terrible transfer thirst on me this fine cold morning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom1988 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 I really can't see there being much difference in the cost of Gordon vs. the cost of Maddison and I know which one I would rather have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emotic Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 I wouldn't pay more than 20 mil for Gordon, but it's also worth remembering that he's only 20 this year. Get him in as a bench player, coach him on focus, concentration and finishing, demand that he cut out the moaning, diving and general cuntishness, bring him in later on in matches, and he'd be a useful replacement for Fraser.

Coffee_Johnny Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Apologies for posting as no substance, but it at least whets the appetite: “NEWCASTLE READY TO MOVE THROUGH NINE-MAN LIST Newcastle have been quiet so far this month but that could all change in the last 11 days of the window. The Telegraph has been told by a ‘well-placed source’ that the Magpies are ‘getting their ducks lined up’ and they have been doing checks on a nine-man transfer list. We already know it includes Ziyech as one of three Chelsea players. Anthony Gordon remains a target despite a miserable season so far with Everton, while their list of midfielders features Youri Tielemans, Ruben Neves and Scott McTominay. James Maddison is also still on Toon’s radar but it seems the Leicester star isn’t quite as keen to move to the North East. Elsewhere, the Daily Mail says Newcastle have submitted a £13.5million offer for 18-year-old Flamengo forward Matheus Franca, while El Nacional claims they are one of two teams eyeing a move for Real Madrid veteran Luka Modric, with Inter Milan also keen on the Croatia star.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 2 hours ago, UncleBingo said: With regards Gordon, I remember a similar reaction when we signed a certain Craig Bellamy. Based on what I watched last season, there's definitely a player in there somewhere who is suffering at a club that is imploding and playing for a shit manager. I wouldn't pay anywhere near £50m for him mind, but definitely worth a punt for half of that. Yeah, at least if we sign him, he'll be our irritant, not anyone else's, which makes all the difference. I'm not sure exactly what's happened at Everton, but he's a good player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure exactly what's happened at Everton, but he's a good player. I've never been a fan of us signing Gordon but the thought of adding an another player who seems to excel at winding up the opposition does make it slightly more appealing and like you say the fact he'd be our irritating little cunt if it did happen, i reckon i could get onboard with it if he's who Howe wants.

STM Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 I'm well in the minority but I've always liked Gordon. He's always one the better players when we play them. He's young. He grafts his arse off. He's versatile. He's an absolute little rat (good if he's on your team). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame as he seems highly rated, we seem to be targeting a lot of top quality youngsters but not managing to close out any of the deals currently.

He turns 22 next month I do think he has enough raw ability for Howe to work with but not for the prices being mentioned and he's thoroughly unlikeable Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 49 minutes ago, The College Dropout said: Not seen any form of talent with Gordon personally. An engine and a little pace. He'd be good in Howes press setup, which is why I wouldn't rule it out and see why we're linked, but I don't think he has enough creativity to push us on. He's better than Murphy & Fraser, if we can shift them and condense into him then great, but even with his and his clubs stock dramatically fallen I still think it'll be far too expensive for what we'd get in return. We've just corrected the over pay on wood, let's not do it again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
