Gordon - who was also in contention for the top flight's EA Sports Player of the Month prize - played a starring role for the Magpies, netting the winner in the 1-0 victory over Arsenal at St. James' Park.

The 22-year-old also scored in the 4-1 thrashing of Chelsea on Tyneside, providing an assist for Jamaal Lascelles too as he continued his fine start to his first full season in black and white.
