Seven shots up front Gordon generated seven shots (two on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Aston Villa.

Impact During the 2024-25 Premier League, Gordon not only logged six goals but also recorded 34 appearances. None of them saw him attempt more than five shots, which he surpassed Saturday. Perhaps his position can explain why, considering that up front for Newcastle was Gordon. At least temporarily, this may continue to be the case if the Magpies cannot sign anyone else in place of Alexander Isak (transfer). For the first matchday, Harvey Barnes occupied Gordon's usual position out left.

Returns in starting XI Gordon (ankle) makes the starting XI for Saturday's opener against Aston Villa.

Impact Gordon starts Saturday's season opener as expected after his minor ankle issue, with the player downplaying the situation earlier in the week on social media before returning to take his usual spot in the XI. Gordon will hope to regain his goal contributions from 2023/24 since he will be needed in good shape to help replace Alexander Isak who is on the move.

Available for opener Gordon (ankle) is available for Saturday's opener against Aston Villa, according to manager Eddie Howe.

Impact Gordon wasn't even mentioned by name by Howe, which suggests Gordon is fine and this was never really an issue as the player suggested on social media earlier in the week. If that's the case, Gordon will be in the XI for the opener with the other questions being who starts around him, as Jacob Murphy, Anthony Elanga and Harvey Barnes are fighting for the other attacking spots.

Ready for opening day Gordon (ankle) was holding a minor injury and appears to be an option for Saturday's match against Aston Villa, the player stated via Instagram, per Dominic Scurr of the Shields Ga...

Impact Gordon appears to have shaken off the ankle injury he suffered last week and is on the mend for opening day, with the attacker claiming to have just suffered a twisted ankle. This is good news for the club as they likely will have to do without Alexander Isak in matchday one, leaving Gordon as the club's top attacking option. He should claim a starting role immediately if fit and will hope to get back to his 2023/24 levels, bagging 21 goal contributions that season, compared to the 11 he earned in the 2024/25 season.

Impact Gordon suffered an injury Saturday but appears to have avoided a major issue, with the attacker now claimed to have suffered only a twisted ankle. This is good news, but it still puts him in a bit of a bind for their season opener on Aug. 16, as the club likely won't want to risk him unless fully fit. That said, he will probably be a late call and required to pass some testing, with Harvey Barnes, Jacob Murphy and Anthony Elanga as a possible front three if Gordon is left out.

Exits late in friendly Gordon was forced off late in Saturday's friendly against Atletico Madrid, leaving in the 84th minute.

Impact Gordon went 84 minutes Saturday before pulling up with an injury and walking down the tunnel immediately after, per reporter Lee Ryder. With a week before the season, there's a big question on availability for Gordon, especially with Alexander Isak already ruled out. If this turns into a real injury for Gordon, it'll likely mean a front three of Harvey Barnes, Jacob Murphy and Anthony Elanga for the Aug. 16 opener unless Will Osula gets a surprise nod in the XI.

Relative decline post-Euros Gordon logged 34 appearances (28 starts) with six goals and five assists on 59 shots (19 on goal), 131 crosses (31 accurate), 53 corners and 51 chances created during Newcastle Uni...

Impact When comparing both of Gordon's last two seasons, his later one includes more accurate crosses and corners. Though they suggest he should have logged more assists, it was the opposite that came to fruition. That is such for Gordon's overall G/A, which went down double digits from 21 to 11 between seasons. As a young Englishman filling one of Newcastle United's required non-international roster requirements, he should have another chance to bounce back, especially with the 2026 FIFA World Cup approaching and an England team brimming with attacking players. Gordon still logged a double-digit G/A as well, so he is definitely capable of getting involved in much of Newcastle's offense.

Inefficient in service Gordon had six crosses in Newcastle United's 1-0 loss Sunday to Arsenal.

Impact The midfielder had only one accurate cross and created just one chance in what could prove to be a costly loss for Newcastle. Gordon will need to be better if Newcastle want to get a win over Everton next week to secure a UCL spot for next year. Everton have only conceded 44 goals in 37 league matches this season.

Still not fully fit Gordon has appeared off the bench in the club's past four games but is still not fully fit, according to manager Eddie Howe, per Joe Buck of the Shields Gazette.

Impact Gordon has made his return but is still battling some fitness issues recently, not fully recovered from the thigh injury that has plagued him for the last two months. That said, it was revealed he still isn't fully match fit, likely still feeling some pain. He will look to return to the starting XI this season, although he will have to make it quick with only four matches left this campaign.

On bench Sunday Gordon (thigh) is on the bench for Sunday's game versus Manchester United.

Impact Gordon has been sidelined since March 2 but could see minutes against the Red Devils. The attacker's return should be a huge boost to his team in both open play and set pieces, as he's one of their most reliable playmakers and finishers, having scored seven goals and five assists in 29 appearances across all competitions in the 2024/25 campaign. He'll likely replace Harvey Barnes on the left wing at some point.

Impact Gordon could be back available on Sunday against Manchester United and will face a late call after resuming training on grass Thursday. He has been recovering from a thigh injury picked up while on international duty with England, and his potential return could be a nice boost for the team since he is an undisputed starter when fit. If he has to miss one more game, Harvey Barnes is expected to replace him in the frontline.

Left out Monday Gordon (thigh) is out for Monday's match against Leicester City.

Impact Gordon was doubtful heading into Monday and appears to have not passed his testing, with the attackers left out to face the Foxes.

Impact Gordon is an option moving forward for Newcastle after serving his three-game ban due to the red card he received in the FA Cup against Brighton. He should be training with the group later this week but remains a doubt for Monday's clash against Leicester and will likely be a late decision for that game.

Impact Gordon looks to be set for testing after Friday's injury, with the attacker now questionable due to his hip injury. He is a regular starter for Newcastle and has made 11 goal contributions in 26 appearances, so this will be something to monitor, likely to return to his club soon if the injury is even somewhat serious. He will hope he can make a quick turnaround, with England playing again on Monday and Newcastle returning to play April 2.
