Anthony Gordon (now playing for FC Barcelona)


Recommended Posts

The whole performance was only possible thanks to him. 

 

He pressed the entire backline by himself. Reminded me of when Alexis Sanchez started playing up front for Wenger's Arsenal.

Thought after 10-15 minutes. It was going to be one of his games where he looks uninterested and half arsed. But he got through a POWER of running. Didn’t give them a minute’s peace at the back, won cheap free kicks, 3 shots on target. 
 

Very good display.

Scoring the winning goal is the only thing between them.


Doesn’t work like that for me. Gordon scores a tap in (great supporting run TBF).
 

I mean. I feel like Thiaw saved about 3 goals. But how does that show up on the stats?!

Fantastic.

 

Tuchel needn't bother taking another centre forward to 'Murica, there's your man if Kane goes down. Take Barnes to play on the wing if Gordon goes upfront.

Really good, he's starting to find a little bit of consistency and discipline in his performances now. When he's having an "on" day in that striker role he looks very impressive. I've given him his share of pelters so only fair he gets the praise.

Very good tonight - dare I say, champions league effort - the guy was out to impress and covered every blade of grass.

Let's hope he can keep this up.

He’s been showing really good attitude lately. Clapping teammates, acknowledging their work, tracking back hard. General body language is excellent.

You just get the best version of him centrally these days, it’s where he WANTS to play and that’s very clear now

 

Said after Villa away (a thousand years ago) that he always pictured himself moving centrally. Love to see him really growing into the role.

He also knows the drill like the back of his hand, his off the ball work and making sure the team is in shape, telling them where to be so he can lead the press is exceptional. Always been a massively underappreciated and overlooked part of his game. 

 

Admittedly a lot of the time people wouldn't have noticed if he's walking back into his position like, but you know what I mean

I agree, but also think the noticeable nature of that change does give some weight to those of us who were saying his attitude and demeanour didn't look great a couple of months ago. 

 

Still, only a good thing that he seems more tuned in for the team effort and hopefully it stays that way.
