2022/23 Anthony Gordon

[catcherintherye]

So if we rejected a 40 mill bid do we expect him to perform like a 40 mill winger? I expect Atleast 20 attacking returns from the lad

Well MGW has 1 goal in 45 games.

Either way, it's on the people who own him to justify the valuations. Gordon should be judged as a promising young player, and treated with patience. Expecting 20 attacking returns would be a completely unrealistic set of expertations for any player in this team. If he can get to 10, that would be an excellent effort.

This is the sort of inane backlash I'm fearing from our fans.

It’s sensible rational thinking sir

You can see it now can't you. Unless he is scorign 15 goals he's not good enough for the PL. That sort of nonsense is incoming.

Right I can't continue this conversation after this. Just can't.

Have a good night mate.

Imagine thinking 50m for Stones or 80m for Lukaku or 30m for a 30 year old Gueye was us getting bullied. There isn't a single example since maybe Arteta and that has been a freaking decade.

Not taking a fair and good deal because of some made up complex, I really despair for us if that's truly what is happening.

We have NEVER been bullied selling our players.

Well one time, and it was literally Ross Barkley who did it, not another club.

Utd did with Rooney

Is double digits fair?

10m for Arteta was a decent price.

We have not sold a single player cheaply.

Maybe Rooney.

Can see it turning really nasty if he even underhits a corner.

 

[TheBigIguana]

Utd did with Rooney

2004?!??!?!?

Can someone tell me Barcelona did with Lineker now? We're in range I think.

If you tell a club a players not for sale
And he ends up going anyway then youv been bullied

Nar, I think the majority of the fanbase are fully behind the lad and would probably reject 60m.

He underhits corners and free kicks weekly and it doesn’t turn nasty.

Absolutely. Rooney was world class and should have gone for 3x the amount, even then.

And even if you don't believe we do get bullied in the transfer market, why start now with Anthony Gordon.

Yeah point was more that you probably shouldn't let something from 18 years ago influence current transfer policy

That's before this saga.
