Cronky Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 Great to see him back at his early-Everton form. Not the most elegant of players maybe, but he does make things happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
prefabtoon Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 No one won more fouls (6) and no one won more duels (10) on Saturday, where Gordon’s work on and off the ball played a key role in our 5-1 win over Unai Emery’s Villa. After a positive summer with England and impressive pre-season, it’s great to see our £40m man look full of confidence, energy and quality heading into this weekend’s trip to the Etihad.

prefabtoon Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 (edited) Premier League's fastest five players from the opening weekend REVEALED Anthony Gordon comes out on top Anthony Gordon clocked in as the paciest player with a top speed of 22.14 miles per hour Burnley centre-back Ameen Al-Dakhil managed to finish second Wolves' Pedro Neto came third Anthony Elanga registered the fourth-highest top speed on his debut for Nottingham Forest. Kyle Walker was the fifth-fastest player Gordon was some way ahead of his nearest competitor but still over 5mph behind the top speed ever recorded by Usain Bolt of close to 28mph.

TheGuv Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 I’ve just realised Is the Gordon song SUPPOSED to be to the tune of Voulez-Vous? If it is, man what a missed opportunity that we don’t sing in tune Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he can be truly great if/when he develops better end product. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just putting my neck on the line. watched the Amazon episode after a few wines and the way they were talking about him got me thinking about when we missed out on Rooney. Glad we managed to tie him down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 I do think he’s got incredible potential, he’s already a very good player, he’s rapid and that’s something that a huge number of good players lack. His flexibility will mean he will always get minutes. Just don’t see any downside to him at all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novocastrian Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 I think Gordon will be a far better player than 100m Jack Grealish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grealish is a very good footballer who isn’t quite at the very top for his position. I think Gordon will be more versatile than Grealish, he already is, and he might offer more to the team but to be better than Grealish he still has a way to go Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think Gordon has something special and once he nails down a position he can call his own he’ll show his worth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 (edited) I love that you can see Eddie's coaching on him already. Even just the instictive way he spun back for a give and go from Joelinton for the Tonali goal. Edited August 18, 2023 by alexf Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Grealish is really good like. Gordon has looked really promising from preseason but still has to prove (not to knock, I hope he will) reliable end product. The talk about him being that level is a liiiittle premature but all signs are positive right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Thought he was poor. But had no help. Maybe lucky not to get sent off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viana Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 He had one golden chance the whole game and lacked conviction to just hit it. That is the margin at the top level. We basically played what could be a Champions League knockout game tonight. I think against lesser opposition he’ll be decisive in games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
80 Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Just needs to keep heeding the Eddie Howe mantra - never feel too high, never feel too low. By his mid 20s I think he'll be a clinical finisher. But I don't think it'll happen this season, or probably next. It's dramatic how rarely he gets into rows on the pitch now though. Felt like it was every week when he was at Everton.

Two tackles that were totally blown out of proportion by the commentators. He's just a poor tackler, no malice or intent whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
