2022/23 Anthony Gordon

[Nymzee]

Sell him to spurs where he'll rot on the bench and get cash + Djed Spence loan with a buy option. They're apparently looking to loan him out as bringing in Pedro Porro.

So lose an attacker, from a side devoid of attackers, to get a bit of cash and a right-back???

 

[Stuartisitc1878]

if we don't sell, throw him in with the U23's. Remind him regardless of the mess we're in we are Everton Football Club and he's just Anthony Gordon.

enjoying this

Yeh this seems proper likely.

Doesnt suit the narrative of whipping every fecker up into a mouth frothing frenzy though.

 

[coollino]

i don't even know my opinion tbh, i just love the drama

Obviously also sign a replacement with the cash??? Or alternatively just sell him for straight cash and negotiate a loan for Spence at the same time. Duh.

 

[MikeH72]

The only good thing I can read into that is that negotiations are going slowly because we're trying to sort out his replacement(s). If we can't get them sorted, he doesn't go.

He’s clearly never gonna kick a ball for us ever again so why on earth would we keep him?

Because if it were true, he'd still turn up to training but just not train you plonker

Because it kinda helps when buying other players if their cllub knows we just received £50m or not.

I would honestly rather have money in the bank than Gordon sat on his arse sulking, missing training and continuing to take a wage for the next 6 months. Selling him before the deadline has to be a priority, his contributions on the pitch for us are a thing of the distant past.

I do wonder if it suits the club to paint Gordon as the bad guy here

Think in politics it's known as the dead cat. But it could just be him being a t1t

 

[Lloydaldo11]

IF we had a backbone as a club and we’re not the sorry state of affairs that we are, we would take that to the FA and report clubs for tapping up before issuing a months fine for every day he doesn’t rock up due to breach of contract, setting a precedent that we aren’t a soft touch.

Not that he’s added anything to the team for months either

 

[bigboy]

How long until he gets floored in shipping forecast like Ross?

I didn't mean not sell him at all this week. I am saying we could have just accepted day dot of the bid, but then clubs know we're flush and desperate, if he's still here we can negotaite replacements easier.

Not sure about that one J, the closer it gets to the deadline the more desperate we obviously are. We just need the player out the door at this point otherwise we’re absolutely snookered if we end up stuck with him.
