Allegedly talks are ongoing to get him started as soon as. There's no way he can play "his style" with the crap they have for a squad right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a sad turn his career has taken They gave him a new 4-year deal in 2019 (with an option for a further year), it expires this summer. He's apparently on £75K per week and has started around nine games in the last two and a bit seasons. He hasn't even made a subs appearance this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another of the financial guru Woodward's magnificent 'protect the transfer value' contracts that have cost the club numerous millions and contributed in a big way to their current financial situation. They apparently still owe something like £300m in outstanding transfer fees. When the new owners take over I expect we're in for a good laugh at the stories that'll come out about just how bad the Glazers and their appointed executives were, a lot of it hidden by SAF's success. They'll probably make the Rangers/Kevin Kyle and Leeds/Seth Johnson stuff look small fry. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could turn it around, maybe he just doesn't want to join mid season. Can do whatever he wants tbh. There are few certainties in football, Gordons career flailing out seems one of them. Doesn't seem to have the mentality for top level football, and he's been signed on the basis on 'potential' like Ross Barkley and Jack Rodwell before him. The more surprising one is Phil Foden who has managed 90 mins in the league once since October, and was dropped for 'lack of match fitness'. Clearly something behind the scenes going on, boys a notorious daftie. Could end up being another Dele Alli / Jadon Sancho. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon's shown promise in the mental department in how he rose above a lot of others as a young guy in a rotten club, but this season has been a bit more worrying. It's always a fine balance between the arrogance and determination required to make it at the highest level and the ill-discipline that that could lead to. It's interesting imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd take a stab that getting a 21yo English player with ~100 senior games, most in the EPL, is enough to warrant a high fee in these crazy days. Presumably they're looking at launching more foreign players into the squad to so need players for the homegrown rule. Hes clearly got potential and, if he reaches it, they could get a lot from him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theroadlesstravelled Posted January 29, 2023 Author Share Posted January 29, 2023 Saint-Maximin is a better player. Howe should just play him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genuine Hibs Fan Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Ashby going to Newcastle as well. Can't get too carried away but would imagine they're looking for a long term replacement for trippier who isn't getting any younger. With the number of games they'll be hoping to play going forward you'd imagine there'll be opportunities for him 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last few games highlights how much Howe doesn't fancy him with starting Joelinton out in left wing rather than just playing him. Looks like Shelvey and Fraser will be out the door so be interesting to see what centre mid comes in as cover will be needed there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
