2022/23 Anthony Gordon

I’d be more inclined to keep him and just wait and see how he develops if:
1. We were nailed on to be finishing mid table.
2. We already had significant funds available.

But whilst neither are the case, it would be in the clubs best interest to cash in and re-invest.

If only there was technology that allowed you to speak to someone in a different city.

No mate, the rumour on here was he was in London

Pretty sure there’s something in a players contract that prevents players talking to random people in the street about contract/transfer speculation. Even clubs need permission off the players current club and agents to speak to players and it’s kept in-house unless stuff is leaked to journalists to force one side to blink first - not random people on the golf course.

The point being, he is NOT in London despite what people are peddling on here

Wasn't there a pic of him in Euston? Or was that an old pic?

Tbh, either way, I think he's off. I think we are probably pushing it.

I’m complaining about people listening to gossip (that’s no biggie) but using it to turn on a young blue. It’s pathetic and only does harm

The only 'Gossip' that has pricked my ears is the amount of money that Chelsea are willing to pay. Regardless of if Gordon wants to stay at Everton or not it is the money being spoken about that fans will think would be foolish to refuse.

The money involved is the main reason it seems like fans are pushing him out the door. We all like the kid but..........

If he want out then its about getting top price for him.
I think he has the basics to be a top player. pace and control. and a big work rate. he needs to bulk up and stay on his feet and I'm sure the end produce will improve with experience.
But if we do sell then its vital we have a forward to being in straight into first team. and a quality one.

if he wants to stay at everton I'm all for that.i want players who love playing for us.

If he does actually want to stay and does end up staying, it possibly brings an added level of pressure for him to deal with - will people now be looking at his performances and comparing them to an actual £40m+ player?

This is classic, zero foundation, but he’s off

A sensible answer!

I think he might struggle tbh. Even Rooney struggled in his second full season, happens often with young players.

Yes I think so if we’ve rejected that kind of money then he really needs to step up and show why we rejected it.

Well it's the only way to reflect their top division goal tallies in % form.

It's just maths.

I mean it’s not really - for one thing it’s 300% MORE goals, not 400. (He’s scored 3 MORE goals, 3 is 300% of 1). Percentages are also a non-ideal way of representing differences between very small numbers, because they give the impression of huge differences, when in fact a change of just 1 goal can vastly alter the percentages.

And weren’t 2 of Gordon’s goals shots from other players that hit him and deflected in?

I have no particular dog in this fight, but using the figures you are using to imply that one of the players is MILES ahead of the other is disingenuous at best.

 

[Blueclouds]

If he could finish then maybe keep him but most of hid shots are weak, need more strength in his legs

Just a feeling.

Ah right, only my point was it’s very unlikely hes going to be giving random folk any information regardless as to whether he was camping outside Stamford bridge or playing golf in formby, which your post indicated.

 

[Shevin Keedy]

Well no, it was some one I get tickets off who spoke to him after golf.

The almost dictionary definition of "gossip" there.
