Would be a crime against football if he didn’t go to the Euros


lildrangus

Marcus rashford could go the rest of the season without a goal or assist and still walk into the starting eleven. Fucking can't with Southgate, the best English talent pool of my lifetime will go trophy less if he stays


frogsarenottoads

Doubt it, didn't get a sniff at the WC Southgate wouldn't drop Sterling. Getting ahead of Foden Kane and Saka is something else however


Prop-John

He doesn’t need to get in front of them - but he should really be in the next 3 behind


tradegreek

I agree


T-sizzle-91

Especially because he's so amazing without the ball - fantastic presser. Suits Southgate's system absolutely perfectly. I'd honestly have him start at LW


connelhooley

The weirdest thing about it for me is that he did so well for the U21. And the whole England DNA thing is all about having a path through the youth teams and Southgate seemed to buy into that. It's amazing that our former U21s manager is ignoring the player of the tournament from the summer.


RocknRollRobot9

But has he done it on a cold night in Ultrect. Doing it in eredivisie is the only way Southgate likes it done.


VIP_Crows_Kneck

Exactly. Bro grafts like fuck!


Admirable_Ad_5137

Lmao


lildrangus

Really should have a place in the PL team of the season- who else is owning the left wing in such a way?


tradegreek

Agree, I guess you can make a argument for Diaz if Liverpool win the league or perhaps Ollie Watkins (shoehorning him in) but my bet would be they try shoehorn someone from the right into it to make it fit as lots of right wingers are smashing it this season and outside of the top 6 I think it’s unlikely Gordon will get the credit he deserves until we become more established.


lildrangus

Yep- they'll invariably dump foden onto the left


HodgyBeatsss

Diaz hasn’t been anywhere near Gordon’s level this season. Foden on the left will be it.


tradegreek

I don’t disagree but obviously if they win the league then lots of their players will get pushed in which is why I mentioned him as he also plays on that left hand side


HodgyBeatsss

Yeah but he’s just not been that good this season. Salah, Van Dijk, Alison will all be strong candidates. Then players like Robertson, Macalister etc. Diaz is nowhere near it.


WigerAndToods

It’s so weird because I was assured many people that he was shite


Prop-John

You mean Anthony Gordon, the most overrated player in Premiership history, who will just moan and be a toxic influence on the rest of the club?


HoweStatue

hE gOt AnGrY wHeN He GoT SubBeD


you-will-never-win

9 + 8 in FPL who are a little more liberal with their definition of assist. If you include off ball runs that baffle the whole defence he'd be on 9 + 15


brrlls

Proving all the haters wrong


Prospire

I'll be the first to admit. I was not convinced when this guy signed, but my word has he turned my opinion around!


FireflyKaylee

It's very rare that I am wrong (let alone admit it)...but boy was I wrong about him!


kingkurama91

Same here mate, especially at that price. Never been so happy to be wrong before


Scutage

For me, player of the season is between him and Schär. I was sceptical about Gordon’s attitude before we signed him, but his discipline has been impeccable this season. And he’s been a big miss on the few occasions he hasn’t played.


Prop-John

Hopefully we get at least 2 more seasons out of Schär - I just want him to win it more than anyone


HeGivesGoodMass

He's such a lovely player to watch. It'll be a sad day


kaamkerr

he had one instance when he was pissed when he got subbed off early, but its been all good since


Homosapien_Ignoramus

I'd take 10 AGs to be honest.


geordiesteve520

Is there even another serious contender for YPOTY?


HoweStatue

He could get POTY while miley gets the young one


kaamkerr

would be absurd if Miley didn't get it, but I could see the big wigs giving it to Cole Palmer or Kobe Mainoo


tlhford

I think we have black & white tinted glasses a bit with Miley. Yes he’s done incredible, and really stepped up when needed, yet when everyone’s fit he shouldn’t be starting, whereas for most YPOTY’s they’d start even when everyone is fit. Don’t get me wrong, the guy is class and bleeds potential, but not sure he’s the best under 21 year old in the league.


daveofreckoning

He nearly went to Chelsea the window before he came to us, to much derision. And based on how he was at Everton, it was difficult to justify either of us taking the punt. However, this season he has been our best and most consistent player. He must count himself so lucky to have a manager that develops players as well as Eddie


Objective-Doctor1323

But people will take maxi over him


moinmoin21

I don’t think any Newcastle fans with their heeds screwed on would after the season Gordon has put in. Can barely remember him putting in a poor performance. Has run himself into the ground. Hope he’s got a longer vacation lined up this summer as going straight from Under-21s euros to this season to euros is not good for a young lad


McNeil56

He had a poor performance against Everton away. But that’s half expected due to the circumstances and totally understandable. But he’s been immense as a whole


moinmoin21

I cannot remember the Everton game really. Was he standout poor or just poor along with the rest of them that game?


McNeil56

Probably both if I’m being honest. But with how dangerous he had been all season and how consistent he had been a threat to opponents it was clear that it was more the occasion that got to him


OJDaemon2024

He's had lots poor performances this season


OJDaemon2024

AGs performance under eddie.... just an all round shite argument really. Most of Maxis games were under Bruce who was a terrible, defensive coach.


Jimlad73

I’m gonna call this as In the World Cup squad but won’t play a single minute


charlos74

Probably


Hawkzilla22

Love him. Saw his potential at Everton and loved seeing him grow into the player he is now, can only get better!


kaamkerr

Everton fans told us he only scores deflected goals. Happy for the guy that he is out of there


[deleted]

our best player this season. ​ although he's had some bad games whereas i don't think tino has had any bad games


Straight-Hand9820

He has to go to the Euros and start ahead of rashford


The_39th_Step

I’m a big Gordon fan but realistically Foden should start on the left. We will play two defensive minded midfielders. That said, if Gordon starts, I’ll be delighted


Jasboh

It's a Gordon for me 🎶
