Gordon has netted nine times in 26 Premier League appearances in the most impressive season of his career. Unsurprisingly, the former Toffee has been in the media spotlight this week and has opened up on his ideal 5-a-side team. Talking to England’s official YouTube channel, Gordon admitted he would choose Jordan Pickford in goal. In goal, I’d go Pickers,” he said. The 23-year-old also included former Toffee John Stones, who he believes is the best ball-playing central defender on the planet. He added: “For centre-back, I’ll go with John Stones, the best ball-playing centre-back in the world. In midfield, I’ll go with Phil and Jude, and up top, H [Kane]. He’ll score from anywhere.” Gordon has a good chance of making an impact at the European Championships in the summer. Phil Foden is the obvious candidate to start on the left flank, but if the Manchester City star operates in a more central role, the Liverpudlian could find himself firmly in contention. It’s hard for Evertonians to admit, but his exit was best for all concerned. Would he be pushing to start for England if he was at Goodison Park? The answer is pretty unequivocal. The transfer fee could also play a part in the club complying with the Premier League’s FFP regulation.Of course, there’s a sour taste, but it will no doubt be quickly forgotten about by large swathes of the fan base.
