2022/23 Anthony Gordon

Breaking Farhad and Bill reach agreement for STARBOY

Some reflection on yesterday please.
Gordon‘s disallowed goal celebration was him holding a phone to his ear.
He knew the offer was there and he was inviting the move.
He wants out.
He’s commenting on Chelsea players Instagram posts about “their club”.
He is laughing at Everton.

Makes sense mate

Financially, as an academy product, £50m is insanely good for us.

Lampard needs a guaranteed goalscorer. If selling Gordon for £50m allows him to get the players he wants then he's gonna sell. We have to trust his judgement.

Even I laugh at Everton to be fair. And deep down I really love them.

He reckons he’s it doesn’t he.
Never scores and rolls around like a toddler.
Makes a laughing stock of the club with his celebration antics.

If he stays this season if an adequate bid doesn’t come in, okay good. If a bid comes in that allows us to replace and buy other keys areas as a result, grand.

We’re in a really good position here IF Thelwell plays it right imo. Rejecting the first bid gives us time to find the right alternative before the window closes should we be inclined to sell.
It’s time we starting getting good at ‘playing’ the transfer market.

Love Gordon and genuinely excited about what he can do in the future. But…

Totally different in terms of age, potential and connection to the club but this reminds me of the Digne situation. At the time there were massive question marks over the deal, but in the reality of things it was timed perfectly, and we solved our left back and right back situation with the money we got.

Would like to believe we could do the something similar in this situation with attacking options should a ludicrous bid for Gordon come in.

We haven't even replaced Richarlison yet and some people want to sell Gordon too.
Must have loved that relegation battle last season so much they want to take it a step further

 

[Colonel Getafe]

Tbf those players are both better than Gordon currently.

I agree I would ask for more money but anywhere close to £50 millions and the club would be irresponsible for not selling.

To put into context - even though we sold Richy for £50-60 million the book profit for FFP was only about £30-35 millions and so much of that was to offset previous years losses if you believe the 30th June sale story yet we still spent money on Onana and McNeil.

Gordon being an academy lad would be a full profit on the books which means we could bring in 3 forward players and not be in fear of breaking any rules.

It just has to be done - the lad scored 3 goals last season he isn't Bale or Rooney.

This bit x100. To argue otherwise simply because he's "one of our own" is bonkers.

Are you Clinton Baptiste?

Is there a John in the audience?

 

[ToffeeTim]

Anyone advising Gordon right now should be telling him not to move this summer. He has all the time in the world to develop and get a move. Sitting on the bench at Chelsea and being a Carabao cup player would be the worst thing for him. His career will nosedive.

 

[Jcr1878]

Reports saying Chelsea see Gordon as a wingback…

 

[coollino]

Wonder what he is up to right now

If that bid lands he's gone
