Was a good player for us last season, has had his good games (And his bad) this year. Replace him and I'm happy.

Surprised about the animosity. We knew what we were getting when we got him and he did what we expected from him. Maybe not quite good enough at this level, but that's hardly his fault and I think we may regret it greatly if Barton is out for any amount of time. Also, he gave us pace, something few of our other players do which can be very useful from the bench in certain situation. Surprised and not happy with this development. We'd better replace him.

 

Agree.

I don't think people are slagging him off as such, but I'm seeing people say he's not Premier League class but would keep him...why?

Because at this current time, we have nobody else who can play there other than Barton.

During tomorrow's game if we lose a midfielder to injury, we have literally nobody to turn to. Reason enough to not let him go on loan and without a replacement in place.

Can hardly rely on Gosling at this moment, and if Jonas covers right who will play left.

It's a no brainer really, even though this seems to have somehow escaped the no brainers in charge of the club..

Besides, isn't Gosling a central midfielder by trade? Barton has worked out fine there, but I do remember the likes of Bowyer in that position looking half the player they looked in the middle. It's a specialist position, in which we have absolutely no cover now..

We have Gosling & Ferguson. Plus Tiote will only have one more game to go. We can also play Ranger on the right like we did at Chelsea.

Gosling's out tomorrow isn't he?

 

Obviously after the Spurs game, he and/or Guthrie will be an option

Ranger and Ferguson have in no way proven they are any better than Routledge.

Out of all those, I would rate Routledge the best option for the right side of midfield still. Moving Jonas and Ferguson on the left will move Jonas to a position where he is less effective and have us relying on a lightweight 11 or something year old ffs..

Gosling's out tomorrow

 

Plus he hasn't played for ages. Absolutely no guarantee he will be a good option in that position in terms of fitness, positional ability and coming back from injury as good as before (even then, what has he really proven in the game?)

So you would genuinely rather play Ranger on the right than Routledge? If that's the case, I can't even take your argument seriously.

Gosling has played a few minutes in many months and has swelling on his recently injured knee so he's probably a long way from playing regularly and Ferguson has hardly played.

He's an optimistic nut all right if he thinks we will not regret this if not replaced and Barton gets injured/suspended/jailed... ;)
