Anthony Gordon

Just had a look, and in 15 away games he has 1 goal and 2 assists. 2 of those came against Sheffield Utd in the 8-0 trashing. At home he has 9 goals and 7 assists in 17 games, pretty much 1 g/a per game. Crazy difference, but ofcourse it's not just him. Far from it.

Double double for the season. Who was the last player to do that for us? 

Believe it or not, Ruel Fox in 94-95.

Has anyone won more pens than Gordon in the league?

 

If this is accurate it looks like he's well clear:

Scrolling down says our last match was Sheff U so might not even include today's.

 

Might not be long before he's on the all-time list. :lol:

Whilst searching I was interested to discover through Transfermarkt that today's appears to have matched our highest penalties awarded in a PL season of 9 in 1993/94.

World Class. Maybe not, but Jesus Christ he's good.


he’s soooo close to being, with plenty of career left to get there. One of the best players in the league for me

My categorisation of world class is pretty much:

 

Can win games almost on their own multiple times a season 

 

Is one of the best in their position in the world (clearly)

 

Has a consistency that means they rarely drop a long way below their ceiling

 

Id say he ticks the first one, I think he can tick the second. I think he ticks the third one

Can't believe how good he is at winning penalties for us :lol:

 

He is just incredible, and I truly think he'll win something here with us.

Have I missed something or are the media not constantly linking AG to all the usual suspects the way Bruno and Isak have been?

The highlighted one is the one for me.  Could the player realistically get into a world XI?

 

Gordon doesn't get into my England XI tbh - but that doesn't mean he isn't a top player.  Personally, I think his ceiling is a tier below world class - but that's more than good enough for us.  He's been outstanding this season.

Well that's a dilemma for the press. If they do that they also have to hype him up like all other English players and that could mean we get more money that they want us to get.
