Earlier, Everton announced Ross Barkley had signed a new 4-year-deal and fans have been tweeting us their views;
@grandoldteam Great display of intent, now it’s time to kick on with building a stronger team around him – before the window shuts. — aims is a slur (@aimsetc) July 29, 2014
@grandoldteam nice to see a world class down to earth player showing his love for the club and not selling out brilliant news!

@grandoldteam Fantastic. A raw, homegrown talent has committed to Everton for some of his best years. Couldn’t be happier. — Alexander Bennett (@Aley_Benno) July 29, 2014
@grandoldteam proper buzzing and shows great commitment from a young lad who enjoys playing for Roberto #trust from manager and player

@grandoldteam Robertos pulled it out the hat again, don’t rule out Lukaku, the players want to play for him! — michael gundersen (@gundo78m) July 29, 2014
@grandoldteam wouldn’t have happened under Moyes. Would have sold him this year after not making world cup squad. Sold as Rodwell was

@grandoldteam Sends out a statement that Martinez keeps talent instead of selling it away like previous years — Will (@WillyWhitby) July 29, 2014
@grandoldteam easy, best signing of the summer, regardless who else we might get.
