John P Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Didn't he almost exclusively play right wing for Everton? My only memories of seeing him play there were always on the right, so it's a bit weird that he seemingly doesn't like playing there any more. He's certainly played more often on the right in his career than Barnes has, and at the moment Barnes deserves to keep his place on the left Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPERTOON Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Was relieved to see him come on yesterday, he went down in the warm up at half time and was holding his knee. Went down the tunnel just after HT as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Having him available again is what gives me confidence we'll see it through to CL qualification. Just means we're strong on the wings for the full game again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BergenMagpie Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Barnes/Tino is giving me Big Joe/Small joe (biggie smalls) vibes on the left. Gordon needs to be told to start using Hall more on the overlap Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s no good having a good squad if we’re going to be weird about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackyboy Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 When the substitution is made I would like to see Barnes staying on the left and put Gordon on the right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 (edited) Gordon has had a few spells of being pretty poor this season so he only has himself to blame that Barnes took his chance and made the position his own. I can't see both Barnes and Gordon hanging around beyond next season being rotated all the time, both far too good not to be starting every game for their club.

A title challenging UCL club (hopefully us) I’m sure they’ll be OK with that! Edited April 17 by PauloGeordio Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see both Barnes and Gordon hanging around beyond next season being rotated all the time, both far too good not to be starting every game for their club. I don't think this is possible / good with a team that is challenging in the CL. City & Liverpool only have 1 attacker that starts every game and neither has to do the same amount of work off the ball that Gordon/Barnes has to do. That's Isak in our case, not Gordon. Arsenal are the exception who seem to run their attackers into the ground and they've picked up loads of injuries this season. I also don't think Gordon is good enough to start 50 games for another team in the CL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also don't think Gordon is good enough to start 50 games for another team in the CL. I think it depends on several factors, one being his place in the England team. If he loses that he'll want to be starting week in week out somewhere. I've full faith on Gordon coming back in though, if he finds his form again he's one of our best players.
