Joey Barton (now retired)


Recommended Posts

Totally blanked out Gosling playing for us, wasn't he shite? I liked Guthrie but he was straight down the line mediocre and Barton always seemed to flatter to deceive like he was actually better then what he showed. Total cunt of a human though.

Remember being quite pleased when we got Gosling. Did he do that thing of having one match where he played a blinder and never looked any good ever again?

 

I think he was injured when we signed him or he got injured for a long time a short time after?

 

Always found him a bit underwhelming when he played for us. Was good at getting at the end of chances as someone mentioned, but he was awful at ever getting any of them at goal.

Can't remember how he performed in the midfield since I hardly ever noticed him there.

Aye, that's it. Everton fans seems gutted to lose him, he got fit, had one game, got crocked, came back, wasn't very good either because he never really recovered from his injury or just because he's not a great player, faded out of the picture, never headbutted anyone.

34% is bad isn’t it?  Even the likes of Pardew are in the 40% bracket i think.

 

34% isn't inherently good or bad, it completely depends on the context of the results.

 

Anyone know what they were expected to achieve this season?

Joey had some talent. There's no way all those clubs would have taken on the clear risks with him if they didn't see some significant ability.

 

In the end, that fed into the problem. Why change if you're always going to get another chance elsewhere.

Surprised he is still Fleetwood manager to be honest

 

Would open them up to lawsuits firing him before he's officially charged with anything. Gardening leave would be the most they could do until that point I guess.
