Why Anthony Gordon Must Go To EURO 2024

On this week's episode of The Breakdown, brought to you by Sky Bet, we took a closer look at Newcastle United star, Anthony Gordon and how he’s one of the most underrated players in the league.
Do you think Gordon deserves to go to the EUROs with England this summer or do you think he’s still got a lot more to learn before he’s ready?

[@kanyewest2345]

Gary really fell in love with Gordon after that interview 😂

[@charliemartn]

Beat me to it

[@o2xb]

Didn't we all. A good lad😂

[@user-sz2ut4od6s]

His mental strength seems impressive. He comes across as very confident, but not cocky. And never mind his versatility! I think we were all well impressed, never mind Gary.

[@markdixon1089]

Many did 😂😂😂

[@SB-ou5yp]

​@FunkyMonk6 nah Jude is a bit arrogant

[@deanharding740]

This lad is the real deal he has everything with and without the ball. Him and rashford shouldn’t even be in the same conversation in my opinion. His attitude is spot on as well and gives 100% every game.

[@Bert-lw1ot]

100% has to go. Not just his attacking stats, he works so hard in defence

[@civilian2hk]

Id take Gordon over rashford any day

[@JunacCRO]

saka too. Those 2 can stay lol. Bowen/Gordon much better and cooler choices.

[@ikennaduru170]

Say whatever you think about Rashford, He's a Big game player,which you can't really say about the other wingers.

[@dfdvrg1044]

...gordon has scored against every big 6 team

[@JunacCRO]

@@ikennaduru170 when has he been a big game player? dude is invisible most of the time

[@SPARKLEPANDA4LIFE]

He's terrible big game player my arse haha ​@ikennaduru170

[@paulday3936]

I would definitely take him. He's a good option from the bench. I thought the recent Overlap interview between Nev & him was quite an eyeopener & he comes across as focused & level headed.

[@Bert-lw1ot]

Came across really well. Great attitude

[@UBZUKki]

Spot on...

[@gameforalaugh5743]

He should be starting - looked really good with Bellingham in the friendlies. Should really be Kane Gordon - Foden - Saka Rice - Bellingham

[@chrisgoblin4857]

​@@gameforalaugh5743 That's a real scary line up.

[@harrybrown943]

How you can drop Bellingham out of the 10 is criminal he’s our best player

[@michaeltodd1640]

Why he must go? Well because he’s the best left winger we have.

[@LeahCaldwell-ho4cn]

Fact

[@alexcashin5374]

Gordon is another level to Rashford. People need to stop being nostalgic, imagine watching Rashford strolling around in an England shirt, 0 defending and doing F all with the ball. It’s Grealish to control games when needed and Gordon off the bench to add something more explosive

[@ULT1MAT3B]

One of the hardest working players for Newcastle always gives 100% on the field. Im sure he would do the same for his country given the chance again.

[@DSabatage]

Has to be on the plane and starting every match

[@o2xb]

Better than trashford

[@darrenbullock9153]

Saka, Foden, Bellingham, Palmer, Gordon all got be on the plane. Speed, intelligence and all around technical ability wins tournaments. All other top nations wouldn't even make it a discussion.

[@andygordon1028]

He should be starting, not just going. Great player in great form

[@craiglee3653]

If you had a squad of players with the same attitude and application on the pitch no one could beat you!

[@Tbobobo]

He was also the Player of 2023 UEFA U-21 and those biased media chose to ignore mentioning.

[@ianbell6680]

Total class with Gordon and Trips the Toon are mint

[@pauldawson7776]

Gordon is player of season above Bruno so that speaks for itself

[@wazzapk]

Cause gary fell in love with him as a player during the interview😂

[@michaelt2939]

Not only would I take him in the squad, I'd start him.

[@brettsinclair3550]

His mind is more of a number 9 while his skillset is more of a winger.

[@POSTIEPLAYS]

He’s ahead of Grealish for me

[@D.M.T]

Absolutely deserves a place

[@MultiBurger1]

Really good review

[@johnfisher2269]

Anthony Gordon - pure genius. So versatile and creative. Opposition's nightmare.

[@Hesukdyjjom]

100% has to go. 100% has to start.

[@strollingsteve4271]

He should go…but Southgate will bend over backward to take a massively out of form Rashford which makes me doubt whether he’ll go.

[@jonfairriephotography3799]

Gareth won't take him, he'll take Rashford instead cause hes clueless

[@TheDarkKnightRacist]

of course he'll go to EURO's if not injured, he's the only decent inverted left winger for England, other than Grealish.

[@gameforalaugh5743]

Grealish has not been good this season really, nor has Rashford. Best thing about Gordon as well, is that he doesn't mind going outside and using his left!

[@oitoitoi1]

Grealish has been overly specialised by Pep, he does one very specific thing (hold the ball up and win fouls and corners) for City but that's basically it, Gordon is more versatile, better in attack, better out of possession, and has incredible big match temperament. Rashford shouldn't even be in the conversation, only reason he's even mentioned is because he plays for salford united.

[@TheDarkKnightRacist]

@@oitoitoi1 wow, you clearly a football highlights expert, try to watch the full game you'll know Grealish is better than that, he can destroy opponent defense with his dribble and short passes, his cross is also good

[@insanebe1]

yes, but Foden will be playing in that position (even if he wants to be in the middle) also, Rashford will go because he can play in multiple positions so, unfortunately, he wont go... probably

[@gaskellr44]

@@insanebe1 no

[@paulcoffield2102]

If it's over Rashford, I agree.

[@StriderDSC]

He's also got that element of shithousing that can elevate a team and throw the opposition off their game.

[@jbitting8212]

I think you take your best players and he’s up there

[@davidwebster5946]

His numbers don't lie its not even a decision Gordon should be on the plane. Not only is he smashing it on LW but can play anywhere oacross the front 3

[@mthornton4096]

Gordon, Saka, Palmer, Foden would all do a job. Shame Southgate will probably stick Maguire on the right wing with Rashford on the left

[@AnneBear-cs2ov]

With his great work and skills, Gordon will be playing very well for England in Euro 2024. He's also the one to help win penalties for his country. ❤😊

[@AllInTheGame01]

With Official 26 Man Squads recently confirmed by UEFA, both Anthony Gordon & Cole Palmer should/will be selected, same with Watkins & Toney even though Toney's form has dipped a bit as Solanke has had a fantastic season for Bournemouth! Should/will Grealish be selected? Will the likes of Jarrod Bowen & Ben White also make it? Tomori & Loftus-Cheek should also be considered.

[@habilhussain3387]

Yh id choose solanke over Toney don’t really see a need for Toney doesn’t really offer anything different than Watkins

[@seaneames4156]

I'd argue Barkley for Luton has been fantastic

[@AllInTheGame01]

@@seaneames4156 True, but over Maddison for Spurs? Or even JWP for West Ham?

[@seaneames4156]

@@AllInTheGame01 not over Madison, jwp is quite a similar comparison id take either or but Henderson or Phillips shouldn't be there

[@AllInTheGame01]

@@seaneames4156 Agreed, would take any of Maddison, Barkley, Loftus-Cheek & JWP over Henderson & Phillips.

[@alexandereast4072]

Can we take rickie lambert just for pens .

[@ElmiWareMedia]

Yes Gordon deserves to go the Euros With England.

[@jamieolde1716]

I would take gordon and palmer for the euros

[@alexanderhowcroft8779]

His work off the ball makes him a must, potentially even starter. But definitely bring on to protect a lead with 20 minutes to go

[@fader1912]

If Sterling was in form I’d hesitate because aside from him we don’t have anyone to run in behind. Bowen can do that but on the right so Gordon defo deserves a shout at least but I’d take him.

[@mutts.nutts1]

🎶Woah, Anthony Gordon Woah Anthony Gordon🎶

[@Britpopsoul]

If Gordon can replicate his home form away from home he will be the best winger in the league

[@amranhossain7831]

Gordon over rashford if minimum Justice is there from Southgate

[@HarryKanee]

A lot of great players might miss the chance they need to change it from a 23 man sqaud to a 26

[@Bert-lw1ot]

I think they have

[@TORRES999ify]

26 is too much. Last time it happened during covid 3 players would be left out of every match day squad was ridiculous Your not going to use 23 players anyway on a 6/7 game tournament, always a few that go and don't get any minutes

[@AllInTheGame01]

UEFA recently confirmed 26 Man Squads! 25 is a better compromise imo & should be the norm for Tournament Football - 3 GKs & 22 Outfield Players.

[@JunacCRO]

@@TORRES999ify theyre doing 26 cause all leagues have been plagued with injuries. It wont be uncommon for some players to injure themselves on the euro after their club seasons. 26 is a must

[@TORRES999ify]

@JunacCRO guarantee more than 4 players don't get on the pitch over the course of the tournament

[@Nienna1837]

Southgate would be an absolute donkey not to take Gordon.

[@athreyathandeswaran7510]

Can become a 30-35 G/A per season player

[@JunacCRO]

Gordon >> Saka big time. Much more versatile player ,and calmer too. With foden and Bellingham will do wonders.

[@alancharlton109]

Gordon is miles better than rashford on current form there’s only really saka whos been better in the league. Foden is more of a number 10 so I wouldn’t include him

[@DarrenDelaneyMcDel]

& Everton fans said Newcastle were robbed 😂 even tho Chelsea offered more the season earlier

[@DT-rb7ro]

Danny Welbeck is another option.

[@stevenjohncollins3847]

Callum Wilson is to be ruled out of the final 23 by England manager Gareth Southgate

[@rvp589]

Gordon should go and play... same with Bowen

[@amekaiza]

Take Trashford's place please. The guy rn is just overusing the victim's card at this point

[@user-sz2ut4od6s]

I haven’t heard from Rashford for a while, what has he said or done lately? About football or being a victim or anything for that matter?

[@MrTemesgan]

@@user-sz2ut4od6s absolutely nothing, that guy is just waffling for the sake of it

[@SPARKLEPANDA4LIFE]

Why Antony Gordon has to go to the Euros Because G. Nev fell in love with him

[@SWAL3SYx]

.. yet Gordon doesn’t even make the player of the season nomination list, absolutely scandalous, only have to look at his stats.

[@_Super_Hans_]

Because he did an interview for the channel. I wonder if this video would have been made had he not done that.

[@Kristian-wj9up]

If you believe that then you should just take up badminton because clearly football isn’t for you.

[@rh6951]

maybe the reason they even interviewed him was because of this, they knew he had top stats this season

[@user-wu2lh7di2l]

You can’t justify taking Rashford over Gordon. He has this protection cloak that I’ve never seen on a player before, so overrated, could score and assist zero in a season and England and United would still play him

[@ive3336]

Gary and Gordon sitting in a tree...

[@alancharlton109]

If rashford goes and Gordon doesn’t then Southgate needs the sack

[@seancollins8120]

100% needs to go. Better than grealish

[@unoriginalfilms3458]

Cuz u interviewed him

[@malcomflibbleghast8140]

imo better season than rashford

[@DreamTeamWrestling]

gordon, foden, palmer, saka, bowen go, rashford , grealish no chance, rashford gotta be the most over rated english player of all time and grealish is too predictable, slows the whole game down and has done absolutely nothing in an england shirt

He's been in Overlap episode - thus he HAVE TO.
