Koeman Not Confident On Barkley

[N.S.N.O.]

At least when he gets his wish to sit on a bench in London he will immediately be recalled into the England starting 11........

Nice gesture from Koeman to give Barkley a chance today to prepare for sitting on a bench in London

He can demonstrate how a world class midfielder should sit.........

Mad the way some people don't realise how much ability he has.

I'm tired of this. Honestly think the best thing for his career is to play elsewhere now - a club whose fans would let the boy breathe.

We'll see how that goes

Stupid if you think he won't push on.

Yep.... Be interesting to see if he goes for the 'Leg over leg' position, 'figure 4' position, or both feet on the ground.... Big decisions for him....

We've been saying these things for at least 2 seasons now. I like him a lot but there's only so long we can wait for it to actually happen.

Nothing to do with not recognising his ability.

It has everything to do with not tolerating homegrown players messing us around like they are bigger than the club. As I've said before, if he doesn't want to be here, then get rid asap.

He's creative, it'll be the feet on the back of the seat in front, proper laid back.......

Yeh Yeh - just like all those that have had their heads turned before him?

He might push on - he might not - time will tell - doesn't mean your stupid if you are of the opinion he won't.

Sandro is a striker. Barkley is an attacking midfielder. That's my understanding.

I base my opinion on watching a few Malaga games from La Liga. He links up from midfield with a number 9. I should imagine that we can make
our minds up if we watch Malaga and Real Madrid later today.

Just like Barkley. But better...Your point was that Barkley leaving would put off good players coming to EFC. Disagree. And I hope Sandro coming will be evidence of that.

It's not an issue of ability, he's been messing the club around over this contract for a while. If he wants to go then goodbye....
