Anthony Gordon revealed that Alexander Isak’s transfer situation has tested the Newcastle United team.
Magpys drawed in Goulala against the Aston Villa, despite the last 24 minutes, with 10 men, Ezri Kons sent a last man in Gordon.
Eddie Howe’s parties were more threatened at the Villa Park, 1.47 the scores (XG) were expected to 0.13, but the absence of Isaks was highlighted in the last third party.
Newcastle has now won one of his last six league games without his Talisman (D4 L2), without scoring each last four, despite 75 shots (9.4 xg) in these last four.
Isak has had main titles this summer, Liverpool managed to acquire the striker, despite the initial offer of £ 110 million.
The 25-year-old was left out of the previous season camp and now he moved away from the group, and he said he wants to fix the situation later.
Gordon gave the news that it was not easy to deal with at the beginning, but he stressed that the team has become stronger.
“It’s been hard for we have a close point,” Gordon said TNT sports.
“We’ve never had any problems being publicly and has been tested to be the first thing that has happened. But now we’ve seen that spirit and together.
“We work every day and never disappear from any individual. We are the top team, our solidarity is from above and it will always be.
“Such things can do a fighting test and I think you’re doing better and so.”
We didn’t win, but it’s good to return

The next match of Newcastle is against Liverpool, at the EFL Cup finals of the San Sebastián season, in the game of Isak.
After everything happened between Isa and Liverpool this summer, Gordon expects a passionate atmosphere against the league champions.
“I think about everything you went to the atmosphere” Gordon added.
“I’m excited to see household fans again and return to the stadium. It will be a top game.”
