Hey Lads was having a heated discussion with my mates over who u would rather have on your team, me being a newcastle fan am delighted in having gordon and think he has been exceptional for newcastle at the start of the season and really had a breakthrough u21’s euros with england and was arguably their best player in the tournament. However haven’t seen enough of cole palmer to really intrigue me is a great talent for sure and my friends were adamant he is better than gordon but want to get second opinions on it.

Palmer is a much better player and it isn’t even close. Gordon is just a pace merchant who is pretty average on the ball.
Gordon has a fucking annoying face.
I’d say Palmer.
Jacob Ramsey is better then both of rhem
Cole Palmer
I hate Gordon so palmer by the process of elimination
It depends on what your team needs.
For Newcastle I think Gordon is a much better fit because we play with that high tempo high press system that suits Gordon perfectly.
For England, I can see why Palmer’s been selected ahead of Gordon, because we need someone who can slot into that #10 type role in the absence of Madison and Bellingham. If those 2 were fit and the injuries had been to wide players (especially on the left) then we might have seen Gordon get a callup instead
Palmer is one of the best pressers i’ve seen. he’s not that athletic but he seems to create a chance solely through his own pressing intelligence at least once a game.
But i do agree they’re different players and this is kind of a silly comparison
Palmer. Although Gordon is a crack of a player, love his tenacity. Palmer oozes confidence and is very smooth. He’s gonna be a star they both are
You got into a heated discussion over that???
Palmer has a considerably less punchable face and an overall less whiny bearing. So there’s that.
Gordon probably a marginally more impactful player at the moment though.
Palmer is the better footballer for sure.
Strange to say that with so much confidence, if Gordon had taken like 5 penalties too I feel like it wouldn’t even be a discussion
Palmers upside is much, much greater than Gordon
LOL Palmer in a heartbeat and I’m a big fan of Gordon. seen most of what Gordon can do, not sure he will grow much more. Palmer on the other hand looks like he is just getting started
Agree, while Gordon definitely has improved since he left us, Palmer is much more mature of a player for his age.
He’s already improved massively since he joined Newcastle though, I’m not seeing anything to say he won’t continue to improve he’s still very young
Simple really, who has the more punchable face? Anthony Gordon in my book. Therefore I’d rather have Cole Palmer on my team.
Cole Palmer all day for me.
