I've got various views on it, but I think it's actually, in a way, a very good signing for Barcelona.
I just can't quite get over the price tag.
I feel like it's so much money for Anthony Gordon.
And I don't know if I'm still just very old and that that is actually just a completely fair amount to put on him.
But also, I'm kind of imagining it from Anthony Gordon's perspective.
He must be absolutely over the moon, right?
Imagine.
Just imagine signing for Barcelona.
I don't feel like he's the kind of player that ever felt like he would sign for Barcelona.
But again...
Maybe I'm still looking at things from an old lens where English players were less likely to do this.
But I just think you'd be so happy, wouldn't you?
Can you imagine?
Checking your emails, checking your emails.
Now, I think what I would want as a player is to have a set time by which you will be let know one way or the other.
Because can you imagine if you don't get a call, you are literally sitting there.
And you've probably got your teammates as well.
You don't know whether they've got in.
You don't know whether they're going to... So you've just got this complete tension.
So I actually think you want to call as a player whether you're in or out.
