2022/23 Anthony Gordon

Think Gordon done pretty well given his age and inexperience today.
Some of the posts in here you would thing he’d played load of games in the EPL, he’s 21 ffs.
Name me another 21 year old forward that is scoring better than 1 in 9.
In comparison to many players, he’s a seasoned PL player now. Commentators make out he’s our danger man and left backs should be terrified.

Went for the “cool” relaxed slot with his left foot today that would have had the same commentators praising his composure. Missed like a tit. Yes he made a great run, but that was an arrogant attempt.

I think Gordon has the fastest sprint speed in the PL before today? Their timid looking left back was utter crap and likes to normally get forward, but Gordon didnt really do anything dangerous.

Traore is an abysmal footballer, but his presence on the pitch completely changed Myko, Gray and one CM’s positioning as soon as he came on, because he knows where to position himself to use the one attribute he has -pace. And even if he doesn’t touch the ball, the mere threat of him creates 2 holes elsewhere. And they score.

Wolves left their crappy left back 1v1 against Gordon all afternoon with no fear. Even when he got beat, nothing actually happened. They weren’t worried about Gordon at all, and they’ve had weeks to watch tapes of him play this season. His name wasn’t even on their whiteboard.

Gordon is a good player, and I quite like it when he tries to leave a bit on the opponent in a challenge. He’s been in and around the 1st team for years and had 2 UCL teams trying to buy him. Age and inexperience can’t possibly still be his excuses. At what point can we actually start asking him to live up to the potential that Frank, Tuchel, Conte etc. all think he has?
