Anthony Gordon

[Big Geordie]

I must admit, I wasn't that arsed when news came out that we were after and subsequently bought him. However, he's been terrific this season and has become an integral part to Eddie's team. Another young lad, who has all the world ahead of him if he keeps on working hard.

[Sufi]

That tournament in the summer was HUGE for his confidence and fitness. Want him to get a rest against weaker opposition soon when Barnes and Willock come back. He's basically played every match for us and didnt have a proper off season.

Based on absolutely nothing once Gordon gets his first at St James' he'll be banging them in.

 

Fact is I know ball.

I feel like he's done it every time he scores, no?

Did it after scoring his first.

Flash I love ya! Queen sang some top tunes like 😂

I love a far post tap-in. That's a Pep-era Man City goal. Brilliantly worked.

 

From fbref.

 

 Trippier is now joint leader with Neto on 7 assists. Pity the lad doesn't have a goal because he's come very close.

What’s that, 6 goals now? ASM a distant memory now.

I'm so glad I was so wrong about this chap. May I be hopeless re. football forevermore

I loved him too but you can absolutely see why we sold him when they clearly had an idea of how good Gordon could be and the role he could do. 
 

If they can upgraded RW next summer we’re really in business.

Not going to be easy, Almiron brings so much to the team. If he just could get some consistency in his finishing..

 

I actually think our first team is on par with most atm(in practice, not on paper). Just need a bigger squad, bigger than others considering the intensity in our play.

[GeordieDazzler]

Goals against Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea and Man United. Man for the big occasion is AG.

[Lush Vlad]

Already matched his league goals total for Everton. In less than half the games. 
 

General consensus seemed to be that he was good on the ball, quick and worked hard (along with all the other stuff ). But that he needed to improve on his output. 
 

He has certainly done that with his goal involvements this year.

I get what you’re saying but if you’re going to go to places like Anfield, Emirates etc or even play those teams at home you need higher quality finishers/game changers. Miggy is great and will no doubt have a prominent role still but RW definitely needs strengthening/uograded. I’m not saying I know exactly who but I’m sure this is a position they’ll look at next summer. 
 

Agreed that the squad is definitely coming together now though when all fit. I think after Jan and next summer it’ll start to getting close to what they want.

Love Miggy but he’s a bench player for me, someone that can bring amazing energy for a final 30 minutes of a game. A top class starting RW is an absolute must if we want to really kick on to the top level.

Yep will be a key addition next summer

Not a bench player for me, more a rotating player for easier games maybe? Think he is best utilized when he plays the full 90 mins.

[Menace]

Mbuemo at right wing to replace Miggy and we'll be very very decent.

 

Anthony's only going to get better and that £40m is a snip looking back.

[Coffee_Johnny]

Visible limp at the end. Hope he’s ok (physically and mentally) for Everton.

If we make it to the UCL next season with the new format, our schedule would be worse than what it is now with the extra games. We need a bigger squad anyways. It is no longer possible to start the same 11 every game even if we had no injuries, and Almiron will be a squad player if we bring in a world class RW.

That would of been Wan-Bissaka in his back pocket
