2020/21 Anthony Gordon

[Eggs]

He’s the one I’d like to see in for Richarlison.

In fact, I’d have him in ahead of Gomes or Sigurdsson or Iwobi...

But I trust Carlo to do what’s right.

....Bernard is another option.

....Bernard is another option.

Im surprised Bernard hasn't had more game time tbh.

With a lot of teams basically just attacking and not defending a player like him could thrive in terms of going forward now we have a midfield who can cover us defensively.

Would have him over Iwobi any day of the week.

He is still learning the game. He will be a better player for working under CA.

Shame Gordon hasn't been more involved. He seems like a natural replacement for Richarlison. We're going to miss having a goalscoring threat on that side.

Gordon is a natural replacement to Richarlison??????????

Based on what?

 

[UptheTofees]

I trust Carlo

But what is the deal with this kid? Would like to see him get 20 or 30 mins in games we are leading like the Brighton or WBA. We need an impact player off the bench. Not sure Iwobi provides that change of speed or breaking down the game that we need for that role.

With Richy out. I am hoping he gets 20 to 30 mins off the bench.

Are we struggling? Or are we doing pretty well?

Why are people saying this lad should be playing? Baffling.

 

[TheBigIguana]

He really should have been loaned if he is this far from the first team. I know we tried to move Bernard instead but finding Gordon a loan would have been straightforward.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

One thing I’ve noticed is Anthony is more of a classical left midfielder. He likes to stay out wide and run the line and get crosses in. With the way we use our fullbacks to provide the width, I think Carlo is more in favor of wingers that offer more threat cutting inside- something Anthony hasn’t really shown. I think he’s capable (and he looks damn good at getting down the line and crossing), but he could do with showing more of a goal threat.

Because Richarlison is banned for 3 matches.

betnard would be my go to ifbringing james off.He can find pockets, unlock defences and keep the same pattern of play. There is no room him and james in the same team though.

He plays wide left and shoots at every opportunity.

He’s a young attacking prospect who’s looked exciting when he’s played. It’s hardly baffling.

I’d be surprised if he’s not used from the bench in the next three games.

It is possible that we can be playing well despite somebody not playing.

People see something in him that they don't see in the likes of Iwobi

The chance for a new local player to come through the ranks, so we can make him a scapegoat down the line
Just kidding. I think he looks great, and direct
