Gosling walks out on Everton

Gosling walks out on Everton
Everton have lost out on up to £4 million for England U21 star Dan Gosling after an administrative error allowed the midfielder to walk away for nothing.

Gosling stunned Everton by walking out of the Merseyside club as a free agent despite a £15,000 a week contract offer.

And his decision was a double blow for the Merseyside club: an administrative error saw them fail to make Gosling an official written offer, meaning that they will miss out on a tribunal fee should he move to a rival Premier League club.
Really? "Gosling walks"? That's the best that Y!'s headline writers could do? No, "Gosling flies" or any nest puns? I'm a bit embarrassed for them.

But for fantasy, it could be a nice bonus if Gosling finds himself playing in midfield while still being listed in defence. See also Perch, James. And more bird puns likely in our future between these two.

  1. I think Gosling may have made a big mistake. Everton treated him well. No other club owes him anything.
