Half of London's Nigerian community just exploded on Twitter when they googled Barkley and saw he was eligible to represent Nigeria :lol:

Alan Stubbs on the City phone in said that Moyes wanted to play Ross a lot more 'but couldn't trust himself to play him in case it cost us'. If one comment ever summed up Moyes it's that one.

CAN'T TRUST THIS

STOP

BARKLEY TIME

It's through his grandad isn't it?

Heard it was through his Dad, but they don't have much to do with each other these days.

Agree to an extent with Bryan, not putting a downer on or anything, just don't expect the next Messi like half the fan base seem to be. He will frustrate a few times, but it's because he's trying stuff other players won't. I just hope we're all patient with him, he's gifted.

Ah right. Somehow I can't see him playing for Nigeria. Could be an outside bet to make our World Cup squad.

I remember Rooney getting into the team for a Euro Qualifier and Turkey being terrified of him every time he had the ball. If Ross fulfills expectation this season he can have that impact

I wonder if he'll get another tattoo sleeve on his other arm, this time with today's date?

Not for one minute am I saying he'll win it, but if you look at Paddy Powers betting for Young PFA player of the year you'll see he's 66/1, look at the players around him in that market and you'll see he's massively overpriced. Worth a tenner at that price....surely!?
