Which player, in hindsight, do you think regrets leaving the club ?

[toffeeblue9]

I'm going to say possibly Deulofeu, although not sure that was all his doing.

Probably Barkley

Probably Jeffers

Marcus Bent, Radzinski, Dan Gosling, Don Hutchison, Big Dunc

 

[gedefc]

Barkley
Pienaar
Richarlison (not sure if it was totally his decision to go anyway, more like we had to sell)
Jeffers
Radzinski
Gosling
Bent

Hutchison was offered much bigger wages at Sunderland and thats why he left, don't think he wanted to leave, but Everton wouldn't up his wage enough

Good thread this.

DAVID MOYES

He never played for us, but deffo the way things went after he left us he probably regrets the move down the road. He`d of been here until Blue Bill popped his cloggs and a new owner replaced him.

 

[Timbucktoo]

I'll go with Franny Jeffers.

Did he want to move or was that a transfer needed to be done to keep the creditors happy?

Lescott would be obvious one, yes he played a minimal role in them winning league, and played a few games in Europe, but he was a no mark at City. Richarlison moved to a side with countless strikers, where he was never going to be loved. I don't think we would of been in relegation trouble if he had stayed. The amount of games in 22/23 where players missed sitters was ridiculous. Gravesen was another one, and Felaini. I don't begrudge Rooney or Stones because they actually went on to better things. But players who pointlessly leave going to a club when they aren't guaranteed starters is moronic. Gordon is a rat, but I understand why he left.

And by the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, Baines and Jagielka helmed the England back four while Joleon was in flip flops, a bit-part player at City and an no-part player for England.

I'm not saying he'd regret his move - he won titles, even if only as a supporting act - but personal ego must also tell him that while he got richer and garnered a few medals, he was an extra at a time in his career where he should have been a main act.

 

[Drico]

Howard Kendall.

 

[MisterJ]

Is this just Premier League or all of our history?

If all, then aren't we missing the obvious...Alan Ball

 

[smileychap]

Yeah, he signed for some American team

Helluva mgt career...

 

[Neiler]

Don Hutchinson.

 

[Neiler]

I doubt Barkley regrets leaving if im honest.

 

[Tipp blue]

Neil Maupay Loves Everton him.

 

[matty1878]

Don Hutchinson.

i really rated him in our CM

could tackle pass score

 

[Cameron Manning]

Dan Gosling

I think he couldn’t wait to leave and him and his agent getting a much better deal off Newcastle through Kenwright’s incompetence!

I doubt Barkley regrets leaving if im honest.

Earned a right few quid , Won a couple of medals , a season in mainland Europe and about 30 European competition appearances .

I know he went down with Luton but I doubt he’s too broken up about missing out on relegations battles pretty much every season since he left .

Isn't it the truth mate - id say he says to himself he dodged a massive bullet, completely blipped the Moshiri era, so id say he has 0 regrets.

Has himself a FA Cup winners medal, Europa League Medal and Club World Cup and a League Cup medals.
