Karim Adeyemi or Anthony Gordon, that's the question | OneFootball

After last night’s brilliant performance by Karim Adeyemi against Racing de Santander, in which the German was one of the standout players with eight shots, six completed dribbles, four chances created, two penalties won, and one assist, a question has emerged among the Barça fans, one that Hansi Flick is surely asking himself as well: Who will play on the left wing in the big matches, Adeyemi or Gordon?

Both signings have fitted in wonderfully at Hansi Flick’s Barça, and both have shown in these first matches of the season why the club decided to back them. Both the Englishman and the German have contributed to Barcelona’s attack and have gone down very well with the Barça fans.

In the seven matches Barça have played across LaLiga EA Sports and the Champions League, Adeyemi has managed, in 292 minutes, to record three goals and three assists. It should be noted that the German has only started 3 of the seven matches.

For his part, Anthony Gordon has registered 5 assists in 338 minutes, but he has yet to find the net. Yesterday, we saw something that had not happened before: Gordon did not play. The Englishman, however, has played more minutes than Karim Adeyemi despite having one fewer match.

For Hansi Flick, however, this is a “good problem to have”. Compared to the previous two seasons, he now has “strength in depth.” According to the Barcelona manager himself, “both players are very good and it is a pleasure to be able to count on them.” As for who would play in a big match, the coach did not want to commit himself and said that “we’ll see.”
