17 - Anthony Gordon

[serghei]

Gordon scores today for sure.

 

[Naija_Crisp]

He's really donkeying today.

 

[FCBarça]

Should’ve had at least a brace today, very active & involved but final ball was lacking - this will happen

 

[Barcelonista10]

His teammates need to pass to him when he gets into a clear spot for scoring.

 

[Windhook]

What sealed the game was his pass to Fermin for 0-2. His awareness is on elite level.

 

[Loki]

He's good in all, but finishing. That will come soon as well.

 

[mc_lovin]

His link up play is top notch. That's what surprised me the most.

 

[Danie7]

Yes, he needs to improve his finishing. Apart from that he is doing all the right things.

 

[serghei]

It is far more important for him to find a way to be clutch when we will have trouble and Raphinha and Yamal will have an off night with very tight marking.

Couldn't care less personally if he bags goals at 3-0 or 4-0. Makes no difference at all.

He's combining well with players and is very smart.

 

[Jamque]

Well, atleast we managed to replace Ferran Torres finishing. Deco got that one correct.

 

[Barcaman]

4 assists in first 4 matches. Last who managed that were Cesc and Suarez

 

[Origami]

ngl he looked sluggish. as if late season fatigueness

 

[ZenI]

Meh, didn't play good today.

 

[Jamologist]

Was okay, just not super impactful in dead rubber minutes. Had good cross to Jesus, which was not converted and made some high IQ decisions as expected, like one, where he didn't give the obvious pass to Yamal on wing, but looked around and lazered it to Fermin in the center, who was brought down and then Yamal scored from that free kick. So still got impact. But let's make nonsense drama for love.

 

[JamanagaSensei]

Just tried too hard.

 

[Jamologist]

He always does.

 

[JamanagaSensei]

He always does.

Not in that sense. He tried too hard to impress. One of his first actions was a shot that would go in 1 in 100 times. He wants a goal, you can see it. No need to force it though. Should just continue to play as he did in the last few games.

 

[Jamologist]

Yeah, but that's the only instance. He really wants that goal, but he obviously sucks at shooting. Should stop with the unrealistic shots and it will come naturally. Otherwise, he will always look a tryhard because that's what he is. Man, who tries hard. Very alien to nonchalant southernmost people, who want to make thing happen, while trying as least hard as possible (and maybe just stealing the thing, if can get away with it).
"La pausa" is basically having a mini siesta amidst ball game.

 

[Don Money Laporta Estruch]

There has to come a point where all this running around, neat technique and assists against shitters is not enough and we need some GOALS from an 80m winger in Flick's Barca.

That's always been his Achilles heel after all, and why we worried about his signing.

Adeyimi's goal yesterday is why I prefer him over Gordon. We are a bit too reliant on Fermin and Lamine to carry the slack when the shot shy Scouser is in the team.

 

[Loki]

Adeyimi's goal yesterday is why I prefer him over Gordon.

He does literally everything better than Adeyemi, aside from scoring in the first 5 games where the team scored 22 goals anyways. And it will come as well.
