Do you just come on to argue pal? Your posts all seem very aggressive

I don't think they're aggressive at all. If you've just read my last few posts in a disagreement on a forum then I can see why you'd maybe think that.

Every thread on this forum is littered with people arguing about something...
 
i fear that he's yet another young lad/came up through the ranks that we desperately want to believe is good, but that isn't (yet?). He rarely finds a team mate with his crosses (those that don't hit the first defender), he hasn't got a good shot (those against Boreham Wood would have been huge keeper errors had they gone in), and his decision making isn't great (but that's forgivable given his age/experience). I'm also not convinced that he can beat a man - he doesn't have a trick (drop of the shoulder/step over) or electric pace over half a yard. All he seems to do is push the ball 2/3 yards past his man and hope to beat him for pace. In the Premier League (and against Boreham Wood) you don't get 2/3 yards without another/covering defender blocking your progress. He flatters to deceive and doesn't have an end product and i fear that he never will.

Tell that to the weird little troll enclave who tried claiming him as the absolute best young prospect in world football mere weeks ago.

Gordon is a decent young player, but he still has a long road ahead if him to be very good imo. Makes the weong choices over and over again, but im sure that aspect will improve with experience.

Guardiola has already described him as "an exceptional player".

You have to take into account though that some of these players he's passing to are some of the most flat footed players in prem league history. Half of the time they don't anticipate his passes. He has been a bright light in an otherwise turgid season. He's getting better by the week imo.
 
Would love us to have a midfield player who could pass the ball forwards effectively. So sad to see us look promising, but knowing that we have nobody in midfield who can produce a piece of magic. Shame James was driven out of the club so disgracefully.
