2019/20 Anthony Gordon

[Carloblues]

This is the type of contract extension I can get on board with. Looks a handy player

This is just good, sensible business by the club. He’s a good player with lots of room for improvement. He will hopefully kick on to become a 1st team regular which will save the club million. Ancelotti clearly likes him which is good enough for me.

Great news. Talented player but stands out not just for technical ability but also his decision making. Walcott and Iwobi watch and learn.

 

[COYB]

Hope we don't ruin him like we did to Kieran Dowell.

So did Luke Garbutt

 

[stamullenblue]

This is a good call ... he will be a very good player for the future ...

Agree tbh - remember how good Davies looked in his first season?

Gordon looks "ok" at this stage but hasn't looked as good as a Rooney or Ross - would rather we have them keep pushing for a new deal rather than handing them out like candy based on 10 or so games like we did with DCL aswell.

I think this is a disservice to the hard work a young lad has put in. He's obviously worked hard and performed in a lot more than 10 or so games. I think you are judging him by two extremes (Rooney at one end of the scale, Davies the other) he's somewhere in between.

I only hope they haven't got ahead of themselves and offered him 30/40/50k a week guaranteed for five years. He's looked promising, but that's it. He's certainly not a proven Premier League player. For all we know he could turn into the next Tom Davies. 15k for now rising each year based on performances.

 

[Pat Butcher]

Is his shirt no now 24 as he has wore it in pre season

 

[Frenk]

He’s going to really kick on with quality players around him, this lad is going to make it.

 

[bluesb1970]

Hope this lad gets a fair crack of the whip and plenty of game time. I think he could be top drawer given the right backing.

I get your point but I don’t remember Luke Garbutt getting regular first team games in which he was one of our best players and keeping out long established professional footballers from the side
