Dug this up from 2008. Although employed on the right flank by Plymouth this season,Dan Gosling prefers to play at right-back and Moyes believes that is the youngsterâs best position. ....................................... Now I know our present RB has his fans but surely with the abundance of talent in midfield , Gosling would want regular 1st team action, which with the quality we have he may struggle to get. Simpson is a great squad player but I'd give Gosling a run. If called upon elsewhere in the team, he's a pretty versatile lad.
one of the reasons he joined us was because he didn't like Moyes playing him at RB or to a lesser extent RM. He prefers CM
Surely he will want to use the absence of Cabaye and Barton to try and get a spot in CM instead of playing at RB.
