Dr.Spaceman Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Yeah, Isak wasn't one of our best performers for too long earlier in the season to win this. AG has been consistently impressive throughout, with only the odd poor game here and there. He's been very impressive this season and the league award nominees are an absolute joke, however there'll be supporters from loads of clubs looking at that list laughing their tits off at some of the omissions.

Gallowgate Toon Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 AG, Schar, and Bruno have been mainstays that have dragged us through some absolute shite this season. Any of them could've won but I think Gordon edges it as he's had some massive moments against the best. Bruno's cardless record is genuinely our most impressive individual achievement this year though doubt there's ever been a swing of picking up a card every other game to not getting one at all for half a season.

Yeah none of us would have bet on that run of no cards going more than a few games, if not getting a strait read! outstanding really! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 I have went back and deleted the 100s of posts I made saying he'd be an awful signing. Now I confidentally proclaim I always knew he'd be class. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pubteam Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 I think Gordon wins it solely on his development arc this season which has been literally stratospheric. He arrived at Newcastle as simply a speed merchant, he now performs so many roles as an outside striker, winger and just as important his role in the press, helping to break down play and explode at pace in the counter attack. He comes across as so humble yet has this insatiable appetite to be the best he can. I think you'd have to put him in the world class bracket now, I don't see any other premier league player in Gordon's position that perform his role better. Let's not forget he has produced these unreal stats in a team that misfired for most of the season, put more quality around him and he will hit an even higher level.

He does a fair bit of back tracking too to help out the defence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just reliant on burning people for pace. Looks to combine well with Anderson and Hall. Showing why he was player of the year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Our best and also worst player, somehow. You can never fault his workrate and ability. Pops up all over the place and he is outrageously quick. But I thought like most of our attacking players. His decision making was terrible for the most part. Often cutting infield when he had space down the line, would 180 back when he had the run on his man and felt like he wanted 2-3 extra touches in crowded areas. Probably harsh to single him out. As the attacking display all round was just generally frustrating as fuck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
