Ross Barkley joins Chelsea, er, Villa on loan

[gonetomorrow]

What a match he had today. I can't help feeling happy for the chap.

Chelsea are a big threat to City this season, IMO. They will thrive when City get a bit bogged down with the CL.

I hope they are, its more Liverpool im worried about, we need Chelsea and Arsenal to keep in this race

Not arsed how it supposedly all went a bit wonky at Everton.. the kid is a tit. Needs to keep his mouth shut with all of the cryarse 'I wasn't coached properly' and 'I've never played with good players until now' shouts.

Didn't it happen with Stones at City? Was wobbly for a bit and then hit form.

How did that old saying about form and class go again...

The mind boggles.

No need to worry about Liverpool.

One word: Klopp.

 

[Parker]

I'm glad he played well. Means he's more likely to play against us at Goodison. I wouldn't have a good view of him whimpering if he was on the bench.

Burnley

Lol

He's cabbage

I'd buff up my stats if I had a Chelsea team around me against Burnley.

Look we know he can play a bit and had many a decent game for us, but the people coming out and trying to gloat to ones that say he is crap are being as equally premature. He is playing in a good side against a team bereft of confidence and you would swear from the posts above that Ross Barkley on his own is handing out a spanking to the Spanish team of 2010 or Brazil 1970 or AC Milan in the 90's.

This doesn't mean he will suddenly turn in to Mr Consistent. He has the same issues as Lukaku. Great on their day but can they do that against the very best, most of the time.

Same happened with Sigurdsson though, he's had a few good games this season, and then all of a sudden those who had a pop at him for being gash for the majority of last season were told they knew nothing about footy etc.

Class playing centre mid and begining to average a goal or assist a game.

Such a shame

Joint most goals & assists in the league for a midfielder in the league had his mjnutes managed too

"Wont get a game for Chelsea". "Benchwarmer". "He'll be playing for Cardiff soon". "He'll never play for England again". "He'll find out that you dont get better you get worse when you leave us".
