Anti-Gordon brigade have short memories
The Journal
|May 22, 2025
NEWCASTLE United are preparing for one of the biggest games of their campaign so, as you'd expect, the pre-match chatter has naturally concerned the future of one of Eddie Howe's most senior and talented stars.
Anthony Gordon's performance at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday was one to forget, but the reaction since, safe to say, has been a touch over the top.
In recent days, there has been overblown talk of the winger absolutely, categorically needing to be dropped for this weekend's final showdown with Everton, while some have rejoiced at speculation that some of Newcastle's rivals - namely Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea - have been credited with interest in his services.
This is nothing new. In the modern game, recency bias rules the day. Social media is awash with armchair pundits and the pressure is subsequently overblown on stars at the top of their game.
