Quotes<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cHe gives us a lot of control of the ball. When he receives it he is always able to control it and give it back to a teammate to keep possession,”\u00a0Barcelona manager Hansi Flick said about Anthony Gordon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

“That is very important for us. I am very happy with that. Of course, as a forward, when you have chances you want to score, and I hope he gets that very soon. That will also help him settle fully, but I am happy with him.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

“We value what he gives us.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
