Scores goal
Gibbs-White scored one goal to go with five shots (three on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-2 loss versus Manchester United.
Analysis: Gibbs-White returned to the starting XI Sunday after a brutal face injury in his last appearance, available for the full 90, which is a good sign heading into World Cup selection. He would score a goal in the 78th minute to make it two straight games with a goal contribution, earning an assist in the match he suffered his facial injury. The midfielder is now up to 14 goals and four assists in 36 appearances (34 starts) this campaign.
Finds starting role
Gibbs-White (face) is in the starting XI for Sunday's clash against Manchester United.
Analysis: Gibbs-White made his return from the face injury that had kept him out of the Newcastle fixture, with manager Vitor Pereira handing him a starting role after the playmaker came through his first training session with the mask and expressed comfort with wearing it during play. The 13-goal, four-assist campaign he has put together across 35 Premier League appearances this season made a compelling case for his immediate return, and the coach opted to trust him from the off with a World Cup spot with England potentially on the line.
