    Gordon must be told to use his feet as little as possible. His distribution must be by hand.

    Those saves are the sole reason we didn't lose at home to * Sevco. MOTM today.

    Pretty much what I´m thinking. Saved us today again, but his long kicks never really reach our players.

    Not overly impressed with him today. Got away with a couple against a * team. Made a couple of decent saves but thats why he's in goal. There goalie pulled off some better saves but I wouldn't want him in goal for us either

    Their goalie pulled off better saves... Are you mental? He can only save the shots into him ffs and he done that today.

    good shot stopper but still * me off no end with his distribution, takes about 10 minutes to kick the ball.

    I struggle to see anything spectacular about Gordons saves today. They are the type of saves I would expect off anybody picked to start for us in goal should make. Too often when he is making saves he is palming the ball away instead of smothering it to make sure there is no follow up. It seems to me he sometimes want to make his saves look more spectacular

    Granted he made a couple of saves but we still need to improve. Playing out from the goalkeeper is such a massive part of our game and Gordon's distribution is terrible.

    BR on Craig Gordon: "He had a really good save off the full-back. You see his reaction off Morelos, probably should score, but he made a brilliant save with his leg. He didn’t have too much to do but in those moments in the second-half he saved them very well.

    It's a pity he's so * at kicking and his general decision-making is dubious... as he does have those excellent reflex saves in him.

    Still felt he * up a lot today. Seemed to take ages to kick the ball out and when he did it either went to a Hun or to one of our players who then had to battle to hold it.

    Had a good game,the short passes need to stop though as he isn't good enough at it,suppose that's what Brendan wants him to do though
