2022/23 Anthony Gordon

Think people are mistaking bad attitude for what are just poor performances from what might be a very average player. Every club does it but we are dreadful for the hyperbole that surrounds anyone who strings together a few decent performances.

He’s been booked 7 times in 12 games, he has a bad attitude.

Horrendous

 

[jonnyg]

How's he gone from shooting too much instead of passing to doing neither of those things?

 

[maccavennie]

There's just no way he can be in the side on Saturday. Absolutely no way would you bank on the shithouse to save your job.

Lampard has backed him, cajoled him, defended him and he's put in the kind of performances you'd be fuming if an u18 player put in given half a chance.

For the faith Lampard gave this guy in the summer, essentially empowering him to replace Richarlison as the star man in the team, Gordon is paying him back horrifically at the moment I have to say.

Managers live and die by their decisions, and Lampard this evening may well be going back and forth in his mind about decisions he made in the summer.

 

[MACCA75]

Looking like the player that struggled at Preston.

 

[Richard Alex]

I don’t think he wants to play for us. Time to drop and put him in the U21’s.
Tell his agent unless his attitude changes he won’t be back in the team

Fair enough. Probably comes from the frustration of not being able to produce the performances he thinks he's capable of.

I saw him work miles harder last year. Something is different. I can only assume its attitude because I've seen him do far far better with far more determination in his play.

Why tell his agent ?

Tell him to his face ....someone needs to.

 

[Wat Tyler]

Believing his own hype

 

[anton66]

Looking like the player that struggled at Preston.

And now his value is about the same.

 

[Richard Alex]

Why tell his agent ?

Tell him to his face ....someone needs to.

I know what you mean but if I was his manager I would tell his agent and drop him.
I think that would give louder signals to him especially as all the muttering about bids obviously came through those channels
It also gives out signals that we won’t tolerate any BS with him

I think his confidence has gone as well. Even the best game he's had recently against Palace was built off the back of taking the easy option with his passing.

Our forwards get a lot of stick and deservedly so, but the lack of options we give as an attacking side just hangs them out to dry.
