Gosling really is an average player.  I can't see him playing regularly for a PL side at any point in the future.  He'll knock around Championship teams for the rest of his career.  If he is lucky he might get a few Premiership seasons at some yo-yo club.

I don't like cryptic Ronaldo.  Angry Ronaldo is much better.

 

Tbf to Ron he reckoned Gosling would turn out to be a very good player. So far, that looks very, very far from true.

 

We've all done it one way or another, calling a player out as potential sh*te or genius. After seeing Carroll's limp substitute apprearance against Man City a few years ago i said the long streak of p*ss would never amount to anything.

 

Even i can be wrong.... hard to believe.

 

Gosling will turn out to be a limited player but a good PL midfield goalscorer. It just won't be here.

 

Like, 10 goals a season?

Nothing at all I've seen so far suggests anything close to Ronaldo's description of what Gozza will amount to.

^^ So far, this looks bang on.

 

Get this fucker out of our club.

I'm guessing Ron probably meant half that amount...10 is decent for a striker :lol:

Aye, lower Premier League/upper Championship he'll get goals given a proper run.

I'll also go on record to say that Dummet won't 'make it' at this level and i reckon Sammy Ameobi will.

 

My arse could be bit big time here :lol:

 

I really like Sammy, one of the few players in the squad who'll try and do something. We'll knock that out of him.

A midfielder with nowt else to his game but goals really needs to be towards the 10 mark. A bit like Gouff when played outwide. If he's not scoring, he's probably not worth keeping in the side.

 

From what i've seen Gosling will need to improve to even be a mediocre PL midfielder. He's Karl Henry level.

He's a far inferior player to Guthrie imo. Guthrie's a terrible athlete but a decent footballer.

 

At one point of the season where we finished 5th he was an outstanding replacement for Cabaye when the later was out.

Yep. Guthrie has some ability, and with a bit more drive and hunger he could have been a very good player. Gosling wouldn't stand out in div 1.

He deputised for Tiote far more than Cabaye.

Gosling is a Championship-quality centre mid. Not a bad player, but probably not cut-out for this level. Seems like he puts in the effort, just doesn't have what it takes. I don't hate him for it, as it's not his fault Pardew plays him every week.
