ThatGinolaVolley 144 Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 He looked lethal on the counterattack on that left hand side. Crossed one for Wilson to score; crossed one for Wilson to miss; and cut inside and scored one himself. He’s going to help us kill off a few games this season, can’t wait to see it! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 23642 Posted October 7, 2024 Share Posted October 7, 2024 (edited) So, he’s finally had a run of games in the first team. On paper, he’s been out most dangerous finisher this season. However…. When everyone is fit, does he start in his favourite position? I think Gordon is our best option at left wing. He fits the way Howe wants to play in terms of pressing intensity. Barnes is a great finisher but has looked best coming off the bench and going at tired defences. Sometimes when he starts games he doesn’t seem to do much when he isn’t scoring. However I do think the decision to sub him on Saturday was weird given the main thing he does offer is a goal threat when we were struggling to break Everton down. Shame neither Gordon or Barnes look as good on the right wing. We have two great options on the left - in an ideal world the same would be said for the right wing as I don’t think Barnes or Gordon want to play there. Both look better on the left but if I had to pick one it would be Gordon. Edited October 7, 2024 by Dr Gloom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnes is arguably our best finisher especially amongst the midfielders however I don't think his tank is as robust as the others which is why Eddie has probably used him as a sub or taken him off when starting.

PaddockLad 19013 Posted October 7, 2024 Share Posted October 7, 2024 (edited) When he saw the team on Saturday one of our lot said in the system Eddie plays he’s definitely better as an impact sub. I don’t usually give a lot of credence to this individual’s opinions but it’s difficult to argue after what we saw during the game Edited October 7, 2024 by PaddockLad 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is, he had an hour in which Gordon quite often occupied two or three defenders creating a shit load of space and did absolutely nothing. It's pointless having him on the pitch if he's not doing the one thing he does well - threatening goal. You may as well have Miggy and Murphy on the pitch doing absolutely fuck all in the final third but stretching their defenders to bits. I completely understood the logic in taking him off as he was playing shite IMO, however at that point I'd probably have hooked Murphy for Osula as well and put Gordon out left. For me, it would have made more sense having a big lump up top who is also insanely quick - Tarkowski and the other slouch would have no doubt threw a few more dodgy tackles in and won us some dangerous free kicks, maybe a red card and perhaps another stonewall pen (that someone else could have actually scored). 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut 480 Posted November 11, 2024 Share Posted November 11, 2024 Barnes will get about 12 goals this season coming in & out of the team. He's deadly. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
