He's played everywhere across the attack and has found form in recent months. Gordon has solid upside in all competitions, at least as long as he holds a place in the starting XI.

UCL appearance includes goal Gordon (suspension) scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Thursday's 2-1 defeat against Barcelona.

Impact Concerning the UEFA Champions League, Gordon is not suspended. So unsurprisingly, all of the Newcastle-Barcelona game included him. Considering that Gordon's goal is last-minute, he required each of its minutes as well, considering his most recent goal is last-minute. Jacob Murphy logged an accurate cross that Gordon successfully converted.

Sent off Monday Gordon was shown a straight red card and sent off during the first half of Monday's clash with Liverpool.

Impact Gordon went in high and late on Virgil van Dijk and was handed his marching orders just before half time. The winger will now be sidelined for three Premier League matches. That rules him out against Leeds, Wolves, and Bournemouth. Unless Alexander Isak re-integrates into the Newcastle squad, Will Osula will be in line to lead the attack for those matches.

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.

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.
