Barcelona fans have unanimously praised Anthony Gordon after his La Liga debut, where he provided two assists in a 5-0 win over Elche on Sunday. The £69 million signing from Newcastle impressed with a selfless cameo off the bench. Gordon entered the match in the 65th minute, replacing Lamine Yamal, and quickly assisted Raphinha before setting up Fermin Lopez despite being one-on-one with the goalkeeper. His unselfish play earned him the label "a true Cule" from supporters on social media. Fans have called him "a gem" and "the perfect Hansi Flick player," with some claiming he is an upgrade on Marcus Rashford. Gordon hopes his performance earns him a start against Athletic Bilbao on Thursday.
