Anthony Gordon has become the centre of social media scrutiny after the England international failed to find the back of the net in yet another Premier League game.

England are going to the 2026 World Cup, and they are going there in style after another 5-0 win away from home as Latvia became the latest victims of a team that is well and truly taking shape under Thomas Tuchel. The Three Lions have booked their place at next summer's bonanza in North America with two games to spare after winning their first six qualifiers, without conceding a single goal in the process.
A typically insatiable Harry Kane fired England to the 2026 World Cup as the captain scored twice in the 5-0 hammering of Latvia which extended the Three Lions' 100 percent record in qualifying.

England showed little mercy as they tore Wales apart in a 3-0 friendly win at Wembley on Thursday.

Anthony Gordon has compared Nick Woltemade to England "quarterback" Harry Kane and explained how Newcastle's £69 million ($93m) frontman has positively impacted his game.

England star Anthony Gordon has shockingly admitted that he's only performed at "50 per cent" on the international stage, despite featuring in all of Thomas Tuchel's Three Lions squads so far.

But while giving a brutally honest assessment of his form, Gordon insisted there’s “much more to come” from him in an England shirt.
Anthony Gordon has suggested that some of the star names that have been overlooked for Thomas Tuchel's latest England squad, including Jude Bellingham, Jack Grealish and Phil Foden, shouldn't take their omission personally.

Newcastle United promised so much on their return to the Champions League but Marcus Rashford's moments of magic secured Barcelona a hard-fought 2-1 win.

What initially looked like a yellow-card offence was swiftly upgraded to a straight red after VAR intervention, leaving Eddie Howe’s side fighting an uphill battle.
