I’ve just watched 6 minutes of Gordon being ineffective. I don’t get it. Can someone explain why we’re looking at this guy more than just that Everton were in financial trouble?
Well maybe you should have watched a lot more Everton games especially the last 2-3 months of the season . The boy can play . He can play anywhere across the midfield shoots on sight . Definitely got the confidence to go on and be a top player . Even when we gave them a stuffing at home you could see he is there next best thing .I’ve just watched 6 minutes of Gordon being ineffective. I don’t get it.

As excited as I am to get him in, it’s been pretty quiet on the ITK front on this. Obviously not saying that means it won’t happen, but Id allow myself to believe more if one or two had given it the big ??
I don't think he's wing back material. Perhaps as an option in a midfield three or in an attacking three, but not charging up and down the flanks as a wing back.
Yeah really quiet, that used to mean things were happening, but all rational, normal thinking has gone out of the window in this window and who knows now!Been pretty quiet all weekend as well hasn’t it! Was hoping for that cryptic for the ITK thread but guess something changed.
Re Gordon I like him but I don’t think he’s demonstrably better than Gil tbh.

Completely agree. He had one ok moment in the prem beating pulisic but I haven’t seen anything from himGil who has not at any stage looked like a player who is remotely likely to be a premier league footballer against a young lad who had a breakthrough season in the same league
Kinda harsh. He had absolutely no time in the prem to get any rhythm or momentum whatsoever. Add to that he was playing in one of the most disjointed teams we’ve ever had. Nobody looked good, not even Kane. Think he deserves a completely clean slate and a summer of hard work under Conte at the very least before he is written off.Completely agree.

Why is that? I feel like it’s actually going to be easier to convert a winger into a full back in Conte system than a full back into a wing back (Conte has done it plenty of times). Gordon is a really strong runner, can go past his man purely with pace/strength, can go either way as he is comfortable with both feet (which again seems to be a feature of a Conte player). I’d say he’d be ideally suited, but I don’t think it’ll happen.I don't think he's wing back material.

Now if only we did this kind of scouting, 6 minutes is all we need. Imagine how many players we could cover with that sort of efficiency.I’ve just watched 6 minutes of Gordon being ineffective.
