Was the player driving us forward the most and he cut inside very nicely at one stage interchanging with Wilson I like that he still looked to cut in from the right when the space was there. Much better footballer than he's given credit for. Not just some speed merchant at all. Imagine all the energy so many people wasted slating thus guy and complaining about the signing. He's a good player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both him and Bruno have been collecting yellows for fun. Proper daft. He was class, mind. Certainly settling into Howe’s team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleBingo Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 I'm not convinced but I can see that he offers something. Definitely needs to work on his first touch mind, it's letting him down more often than not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s played in multiple positions really well and probably been our most dangerous outlet, especially when games have been closed. Really think he’s going to become a top player Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying that he has looked goood this season undoubtedly. And has contributed a lot. His position is jailed and I’m most confident about him of all our wide players.

Pilko Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 He was good all in all today, one or two errant passes and poor touches but positive with his play and looked sharp in certain moments. He'll get there I think. Definitely a good player in him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 I think he pretty much dived into the keeper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 He definitely bought it, like. Punished the keeper for making a risky call to come out. One of those that you're absolutely fuming to give away but I don't think it's the wrong decision. If you just default to the 'anywhere else on the pitch' position I feel like you can't really argue. Our cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 He bought the pen. Your taught to get your body between the defender and the ball and he did that. Stupid decision from the keeper, clever plylay from Gordon and in anyway not a pen for me. But our goal also should have stood. That aside Gordon is arguably our player of the season thus far.

Nah. 3 minutes ago, Sean said: I think he pretty much dived into the keeper. Yep. He changes his body position to engineer the contact. If the ref hadn’t given it - VAR wouldn’t have overturned it. It’s smart play from Gordon and the ref bought it. He forced a decision and it went our way. But it wasn’t a pen. Ref was awful all game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Gleebals Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Really still cannot work out how that is a penalty. The ball was virtually over the line at contact point so he was hardly in control of it, or going to do anything with it without contact. Will take it but would be mighty pissed off if that had gone against us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPL Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 It was definitely clever play by Gordon and if another top 6 team got that, we would be fuming. We will take it though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeordieDazzler Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 If a player is shepherding the ball out of play and you go through the back of them it’s a foul. Same concept here, got his body between keeper and ball and got fouled. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
