With two goal contributions already, it has been a bright start to the season for Anthony Gordon; Newcastle winger will look to build on his fine early-season form when Eddie Howes side visit Brighton on Saturday, live on Sky Sports
Gordon opens scoring after Alexander-Arnold mistake
It is a different player to the one that flattered to deceive at both Everton and Newcastle last year. With a bit of patience and a bit of confidence, suddenly Newcastle are beginning to look like they have a talent on their hands.Speaking last Sunday, Gary Neville said:"Gordon didn't settle straight away here but he now looks like he's got his legs and his confidence."
"I'm delighted and over the moon," the winger said following England's victory over Spain in the final."I feel as though I've had a good tournament and I don't want give the cliché because it's the truth - me winning the [player of the tournament] trophy was down to my team-mates and the staff." "If he's going to go right to the top level, he needs to be scoring more and providing more assists."
This time last year, as the end of the summer transfer window approached, there was significant interest from Chelsea, then managed by Thomas Tuchel. Everton rejected a bid in the region of £40m. Earlier that summer, Tottenham had wanted to sign the player in a package deal with Richarlison for a combined £80m.
"He lost the fearlessness he had as a young kid in one-v-one situations. He started to think, 'what if I lose it? The fans and the media will get on my back'. "His enthusiasm, aggression and motivation levels are really high. He's fiercely determined to do well and achieve. It's one of his hallmarks and it's one of his strengths.
