And he’ll have done his standing no harm by making an amazing gesture ahead of today’s match.
The Strawberry Pub is located a stone’s throw from St James’ Park and is routinely full of Geordie fans on matchday.
As supporters made their way to the boozer, they found a generous surprise waiting for them.
According to Toon fans on social media, Gordon left money behind the bar to pay for drinks.
Happy supporters have posed for pictures with cards reading: “Anthony Gordon bought me a pint @TheBerryPub.”
According to Sky Sports’ Keith Downie, Gordon made the gesture to thank fans for their support following his penalty miss at Everton last time out.
Prior to the international break, Gordon saw his penalty saved by former team-mate Jordan Pickford as the Toon drew 0-0 at Goodison Park.
Fans have gushed on social media over their beloved winger.
