Our Gordon

[Daffy Duck]

Well done to Gordon Greer.

He's made the Scotland squad for the Germany Euro qualifer next month. Well deserved.

 

[algie]

Rather he didn't from a selfish point of view

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Very well deserved.

Good luck against the world champions though, Gordon

I keep forgetting to drone on about our centre halfs on Saturday.

When Dunk had his header cleared off the line, the interplay between Dunk and Greer to create another chance was fantastic.
Certainly a level of skill Bolton's defenders were incapable of.
In fairness something seems to have happened to GG's attacking intent, it's gone from nonexistent to 5+ goals this season.

 

[Rod Marsh]

I rather liked the chest control and volley attempt from GG! Would have loved that to have gone in.

The club v country debate was something that rarely affected us, and I never understood why it should ever warrant discussion. Until it came our way.....

Country every time.

 

[Eeyore]

Country every time.

Oh I do agree, but I guess there is that little selfish insular concern for many when one of our international players goes on duty.

 

[Mowgli37]

Very pleased for him, would be brilliant to see him start.

I would imagine GG's international call ups have positively effected his game.
Couple that with 'if a centre half can't play for Sami he can't play for anyone', and it would seem Brighton and Gordon have been very fortunate.

I like your perspective. There's no denial on that. He will really benefit from the current set up.

 

[Monkey Man]

Really impressed with Gordon so far this season. Well done.

 

[Lincoln Imp]

There are several players who seem to be performing better under Sami - for a start Greer, Dunk, LuaLua, CMS, potentially Agustein, arguably JFC. A big plus sign for the manager.

Very much agree. I belive that was gus's attitude too. Never stand in the way of someone representing their country and it will benefit the team as aresult. everyone's a winner.

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Has started the season very well.

 

[Official Old Man]

Anyone else noticed how G Greer (Brighton & Hove Albion) is in whilst L Bridcutt (Sunderland) is not. Add to this a certain Buckley played v Man Utd and was replaced late in the game by said Bridcutt, now a mere substitute. Life carries on.

My garden is absolutely sodden. Glad I cut the grass yesterday.

Buckley, I noticed yesterday, is eligible for the Republic of Ireland. Presumably via the usual granny rule.

They're not exactly flush with stars at the moment. If he could maintain even the slightest hint of the form he showed yesterday, and if his fragile hamstrings can take the strain, getting picked for Ireland should be well within his grasp.

 

[The Modfather]

Would be brilliant if he started against the world champs

Yes I noticed, and was going to stifle a snigger, until I realised I was the only one watching. So I just sat there with a smug look on my face. Although I was a bit cheesed off with Buckleys performance...He looked worth the money
