BAXTER JOINS OLDHAM ATHLETIC

[Brennan]

20 year old "kid" ?

Yep..

 

[BoysInBlue]

He's a professional footballer who didn't realise how lucky he was. You don't see Barkley or Rodwell screwing up on Twitter.

Barkley goes to Sheff Wed, tweets 'Going to stay off twitter for a bit now. I'll be back!!!'

Twitter isn't the be all and end all, but it certainly gives you a glimse into a players personality/motivations. All Baxter ever tweets about is his nights out.

Just scored the equaliser for Oldham.

 

[Brennan]

He's just scored, btw.

BRENNAN IN

Is right.

 

[ToffeeBlueNose]

he's gone who cares

 

[Jamo Martinez]

Hodgson should give him a call up.

 

[kenada_blue]

Hope he gets a longer deal.

Must be gutting for him having his career up in the air after rejecting a 2 year deal with us.

Fair play to him, he could have accepted the 2 year contract from us. Sat on the bench and played in the reserves, easy money.

But, he wants to play first team football. The other week when Mirallas was linked to Arsenal, majority of people were saying " He would be on the bench for Arsenal, if he wants to play all the time he should sign for us "

Nailed it there mate. People will always put a spin on a story though.

Rodwell was in the papers not so long ago sending foto's of his todger. Young people make mistakes lad.

It's not a case of putting 'a spin' on it, as Brennan said.

It's not like the Mirallas situation, because he snubbed a deal with us, then struggled to find a club. He did a BBC website interview and even said as much. He only got the short term Oldham deal because Stubbs had a word with Dickov to give him a trial.

It was the part about him claiming we 'treated him bad' - how? - that rubs up the wrong way. There's players out there who'd kill to play for Everton Football Club, yet he's not only turning down the chance but ****ging the club off. It's just sad. If he'd stayed and had a better attitude, maybe he could have developed as a player and a person, and forced his way into the 1st team reckoning. Or maybe he left because he doesn't have the fire in his belly to match his own ego and opinion of his own talent.

Let's get real does anyone know kids of 17-21 with an acceptable attitude if the club was run with an attitude to deal with what kids of this age go through and he has the right talent ??? then they need to learn. Were they trying to teach him a lesson then I really think the club and Moyes need to accept that kids have an attitude and they need to work around if the talent is up to the mark.
