๐จ๐๏ธThierry Henry comparing Anthony Gordon and Marcus Rashford after England's game against New Zealand:
๐ฃ๏ธ You could see the difference between them, and I'm not just talking about this game. When you look at their careers so far, Rashford has consistently shown his quality at the highest level.
He's still young, but he already has a lot of experience. Gordon is a very talented player and has all the attributes to become one of the best wingers in football, but there are still things he can learn from Rashford, especially in terms of decision-making, movement, and handling big moments.
That's not criticism of Gordon. In fact, it's the opposite. I think he has huge potential and all the tools needed to succeed at a club like Barcelona. People will talk about the transfer fee and question whether Barcelona made the right decision, but I don't see it that way.
Young players need time. Gordon has the quality, the work rate, and the mentality to improve. Rashford is ahead right now because he has proven himself over a longer period, but that doesn't mean Gordon cannot reach that level.
If Barcelona are able to keep Rashford and continue developing Gordon, they will have two outstanding players. I'm convinced Gordon will improve, fulfil his potential, and achieve a lot in a Barcelona shirt.
