Newcastle United have been given a major boost as Anthony Gordon can play in tomorrow night's Champions League game against Barcelona. The England international has been suspended for recent matches due to the red card he picked up in the defeat to Liverpool at St James' Park. Thankfully, however, Newcastle will be able to field Gordon in the Champions League as his suspension isn't valid for European competition.
Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has probably earned the right to have some pretty high standards, and he showed that with his analysis of Viktor Gyokeres last night. Speaking as a pundit on CBS Sports, Henry singled out one poor moment from Gyokeres in Arsenal's 2-0 win over Athletic Bilbao in yesterday evening's Champions League clash. Although the Gunners ended up winning thanks to two late goals from substitutes Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard, there was a big opportunity wasted by Gyokeres earlier in the game.
Conceding four goals here, two in stoppage time, is incredibly frustrating for me. Getting a point here is okay, but of course we would have preferred to win. We simply have to finish the game more coolly and composed. You just have to push the ball forward, play down the clock, and get it done. We simply have to play more mature football in the end.
They have a lot of similar attributes Both find the spaces really well, their forward passing is really good, they see runs and through balls - and both score goals. Michael might be a bit more of a wide player that goes into 1v1 and uses his pace, while Cole is more of a number 10 or even as a number 9 that runs in behind and finishes himself. Both are fantastic players.
