I mean this with no disrespect to CT, but the CN is the CT of 'journalism' in that the C stands for contrary. With CN you can probably swap out the o for a u. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polarboy 2317 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Everton are supposedly close to brining in Danjuma on loan from Villarreal. He can play Gordon's position so it will be interesting to see if there's any movement on him early next week once Danjuma is fully singed off.

Howay 12496 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 While I don’t rate Gordon I’m warming to the idea because it’ll be fucking immense to pluck him from Everton and watch their heads melt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougle 3677 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Now that we have a high level selection of chaps deciding who to buy, or try to buy, I do wonder which of these highly paid fuckers may be the decision maker on this apparent Gordon interest. Do they like his hair? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarboy 2317 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 The thing about Gordon is that it's probably unfair to judge him on this season at least in terms of his form. His diving and general demeanour are a separate issue. He's still very young at 21 and he's been playing in a shit team that can barely string a few passes together in forward areas. He has Lampard as a manager and seems to have had a falling out with him. I can't see Lampard benching him like he has if something personal wasn't going on. It's not as if Lampard's squad is overflowing with options. If Ashworth and Howe think there's potential in Gordon who are we to judge. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTF 8381 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) He looks pretty good to me tbh, brings good energy which would suit our high tempo play. I think that his price would be prohibitive and that Everton would not sell him on the cheap when he has a few years on his existing contract and would be on comparatively low wages. I'm still expecting us to bring 2 players in before the window closes. More potentially if we can sell anyone else.

RobElliott 1791 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) Gordon has lots of potential in the shithousery department which I'm sure Eddie and Mad Dog love. I'd say if we get him, Lascelles will take him under his wing and show him the ropes Edited January 23, 2023 by RobElliott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aimaad22 4655 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Hopefully there's a Wood replacement on the horizon plus a couple of loan deals at worst. A week to go, it's hard to see the club not doing anything with the position we are in. Interesting to see what Ashworth and co have up their sleeves though. If we didn't have this newfound trust in the club management there'd bit a bit more of an uproar at this stage no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polarboy 2317 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 The Chronicle are reporting that the change in managers won't stop the transfer from happening if the price is right, and that Everton are continuing their transfer business regardless of their current manager situation. It's almost as if they haven't learnt anything given all the money they've spunked up a wall, and will continue to buy players that managers have had no say or consultation in at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they need the cash tbf for FFP As for the price compared to Maddison. Maybe the age thing has something to do with it? I.e more potential than Maddison? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acrossthepond 979 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 re: Gordon, I'm not sure I would even at 4m. He's a shit clogger who had three months of decent form. 40m for that clown is the sort of transfer Chelsea would do, not the shrewd business that Howe and co have made their trademark. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're buying potential mostly, plus Gordon is nearly 6 years younger than Maddison. Hopefully Maddison will be at the club come the end of the summer. In fairness to Gordon his pace and first touch is top class when he's on it. Edit. Before wykikitoon posts a meme I'd like to say that I didn't see his post before I changed the page. Great minds and all that 😂 Edited January 23, 2023 by Polarboy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimaad22 4655 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Age alone doesn't equal potential. Gordon showed a bit of fire and drive in very shite team last year. So far he's done very little to show he can be anywhere near Maddison's level in the final third. The 40M would be mainly thanks to Chelsea/Man Utd blowing up the market for wide players. I'm still hoping there's no truth in this rumour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
