'Are we missing something?' we asked when Chelsea wanted Anthony Gordon for £60m. We don't think so, but thre's no doubt he's found it now. What a performance.
‘Are we missing something?’ we asked when Chelsea wanted Anthony Gordon for £60m. We don’t think so, but thre’s no doubt he’s found it now. What a performance.weren’t averse to a bit of gentle Anthony Gordon mocking not all that long ago. Not of the man himself per se, more of Chelsea, and then Newcastle, for being willing to pay quite so much for his services. And we weren’t alone.when asked about the £60m Chelsea were apparently willing to pay in January.
Perhaps it was the lack of opportunity to effect games at Everton that was the problem. They were never a free-flowing attacking side and Gordon often cut a pretty lonely figure, foraging for scraps on the wing with little support from his teammates. Missed chances would be highlighted because they were few and far between, while assists were a rarity simply because he had no-one to pass to.
They don’t have loads of the ball, which means there’s always opportunity for Gordon to charge at teams on the break. Not always quite so much opportunity as at Bramall Lane on Sunday mind you – the space Sheffield United allowed him was quite extraordinary. Maybe with a point to prove having been dropped, or at least rotated, Gordon immediately ran at poor Jayden Bogle and continued long after the wing-back was given the sweet release of a spot on the bench at half-time. Perhaps the perfect illustration of Gordon’s influence is that Sheffield United were in the ascendency at the start of this 8-0 defeat, before the winger came on.
