"Gordon enjoyed a productive international window with the Three Lions, scoring in their 5-0 win over Latvia to seal their place at FIFA's flagship tournament in 2026. He also ended that game with a team-high total for touches in the opposition box (11), further proving his case of being involved in Tuchel's plans from the start. But Gordon is yet to hit the ground running in the Premier League in 2025-26, failing to score in his four matches in the competition, albeit he has served a three-match suspension following a straight red card against Liverpool in August."
""Amazing. It is something I have dreamed of as a kid. Probably didn't hit me till I got into the changing room and saw everyone celebrating," Gordon said. "I think definitely in the last three performances they have been my best for England. I still feel like I can do more. "If I want to be a top elite world level winger, I have got loads more to do. I'm not scared of competition. It pushes me to be better, it pushes us all to be better. "Every young lad dreams of playing in a World Cup for England.""
Anthony Gordon scored in England's 5-0 win over Latvia and recorded a team-high 11 touches in the opposition box, strengthening his case for selection. He has not scored in four Premier League appearances in 2025-26 and missed three matches due to a straight red card suspension. Gordon says international performances have been among his best and that he still needs to improve to reach elite world-class winger level. He welcomes competition as motivation. Newcastle face Brighton next, with Brighton unbeaten in three league matches and sitting 12th after seven games.
