Newcastle winger Anthony Gordon took to social media to send a warning shot to Liverpool ahead of their League Cup final meeting.

The 23-year-old scored Newcastle’s second goal as Eddie Howe’s side eased to a 4-0 aggregate win over Premier League title-chasing Arsenal.

Newcastle are set for their second League Cup final in three years as they take on Liverpool on March 16th, in search of their first piece of silverware in the Howe era.

Several stars sent messages to the fans to commemorate reaching the final with a comprehensive win over Arsenal, including captain Bruno Guimaraes and Sven Botman.

Goals from Cody Gakpo, Mohamed Salah, Dominik Szoboszlai, and Virgil van Dijk secured a second-leg comeback win for Liverpool against Tottenham.

Speaking exclusively to Football Insider, former PGMOL chief and ex-FIFA official Keith Hackett believes Van Dijk could have seen red for an incident with Richarlison earlier in the game.

Gordon has been key for Newcastle so far this season, starting 26 of his 30 games across all competitions, scoring nine goals, and providing six assists in his 2288 minutes of action.

The England international took to Instagram after Liverpool were confirmed as Newcastle’s opponents, sharing a post made by the club that says: “Bring it on.”

Howe has his side in contention for Champions League qualification as well as the League Cup trophy, sitting in sixth with 41 points from their 24 games, two behind Chelsea in fourth.

Football Insider revealed (February 4) that Howe was looking to sign a new winger and a centre-back in the January transfer window but was ultimately denied.
