- Asked why he is scoring in the Champions League but not from open play in the Premier League, Gordon called it very unusual. He is trying the exact same in both and has no answer.
- Gordon stays off social media and does not see a lot of it. He does not care whether people love him or not, and his motivation comes from within.
- For atmosphere and adrenaline, Gordon said the first PSG game was one of the best he has been part of. The second was more frustrating: a performance he was proud of, then a tough finish.
- Asked whether the way that game ended, with a penalty, gives extra motivation, Gordon said decisions do not always go your way. It was devastating at the time, but he is kind of over it now.
- Gordon thinks perception can distort reality a little, and says expectations of him have grown, rightly so. The right-backs he faces are elite too, and paid quite well to stop him.
- Everybody visualises, Gordon said, more than they realise, like daydreaming out of a car window with more focus. He does not want to look six months ahead with a game every three days.
- Gordon said Champions League teams are more open and try to play. The Premier League has become more physical than he has known it, like a basketball game sometimes, and more set-piece based.
“…I'll back myself against anyone. So, I'm excited for it.”
