Or you could just look at the real PL site:

He's not saying he's crap (I think), he's saying he doesn't contribute enough goals/assists to justify turning down a big fee.

You can go back to any given point in the history of talented footballers in their prime and say they weren't contributing much at that time.

Players develop and improve and AG has done that exponentially. Why is this so hard for some to understand? I could understand the low output criticism if he were 26/27 but he's 21 and had one season ffs.

The only player in the squad who I wouldn't sell for 45m and be very happy about it is Onana

It's funny that, as when you look at FBref, Gordon is to 10 percentile at all sorts of things. And top 50 across most areas.

The fact the alleged worst winger in the is in the top 10 percentile for any stat, never mind multiple is astonishing.

 

[Neiler]

Only for fantasy.

Here are the reality stats:

Yes like I said it’s omitting a penalty he won.

 

[Dixie1sixty]

I'd also race to sign a deal if someone offered 45m for Iwobi mate. This is not a gotcha

Of course you would because AI is not a 21 yo old English lad, highly rated by the best managers in the game with big potential...

 

[hktoffee]

YouTube scouts, we should sign this promising talent… oh wait ?

Note: should have had a lot more assists!

The create did not put any of his goals in the video.

Yes like I said it’s omitting a penalty he won.

That's how it works right now.

 

[catcherintherye]

Took a look at this. Everton Da's who hate stats, look away now.

Very good at his defensive duties, but not contributing to goals which is what we are in dire need of. Which is why a big fee must be considered.

Yes and yes.

Chico, too many scousers is oxymoronic. How on earth is it possible to have too many scousers anywhere?

Word lar, word!

 

[Neiler]

That's how it works right now.

Subjective though isn’t it, I mean it’s the direct contribution of a goal scored - presuming the penalty taker scores. More so say if it clips of your ankle and someone else scores.

As we know he should have had more of those as well, not given.

You can also go back to any player ever who doesn't make the cut. There is no guarantee he will develop and improve his output. A chance, sure, but enough of a chance to turn down 50m this window? When we have arguably the worst attack in the league? Not for me.

It's really not that subjective, most people count assists the same way so that the data is actually useful.

Earning penalties is a different stat you can count and I'd argue that earning a couple a season doesn't push him up too much higher than where he's at without looking at that.

 

[Zezti]

Yes like I said it’s omitting a penalty he won.

I'd find it detracts from your argument to squabble over the semantics of what constitutes an assist.

 

[Paul Rideout]

Ok Chelsea… £50m and Gilmour

(Anyone saying ‘last season Gilmour…’ needs to look at Gordon’s loan at Preston in 2021 and explain how he turned into a 50m+ player in one season from not being good enough for Preston & why that doesn’t apply to Gilmour WRT Norwich)

Exactly.
