It's interesting - if you compare his stats to wingers (top chart), he looks pretty meh.

 

But if you compare him with midfielders, the numbers look a lot more promising. 

 

Same numbers, different frame of reference. Don't know how Eddie plans on using him but something to consider...

Don’t doubt he can fit in to a pressing style, it’s his quality with the ball and end product that’s my concern.


If Howe thinks he’ll work that’s good enough for me. He’s hardly going to be the only winger we sign, look how many options LIverpool have for example. We’re building a squad.

Howe, Ashworth, and scouting team do. And I trust they have a far better eye for this stuff than we do.


Are you expecting every transfer they make to be a success?

They look at transfer targets from a system point of view. Before they think of what players we want to bring in, they should be clear on what type of football they want to play and then find players that fit that system. Gordon perfectly fits a high pressing system. It’s like having another Almiron on the left flank, and I actually think his work rate is higher than Miggy’s
 

This system matters to Howe so much that he’d rather drop ASM and play Willock as a winger just because that would allow the system to flourish better.
