Ross Barkley

[USABlue]

Doesn't have the discipline to play in CM.

Meant behind the striker, not out on the wing like he has been. Problem is that Naisy was in great form and now eto is playing there

Tonight's the night - feel it in my bones.

be a interesting one tonight .. he's clearly getting over-marked playing AMC teams are onto him

lets see if playing him deeper will open the games / make our play faster .. am hoping it does

 

[Titus Bramble]

I think he's better running with the ball from deep rather than with his back to goal in the ACM position.

 

[MACCA75]

Not sure this will go well tbh.

 

[Moomin]

Has to be disciplined tonight.

Has to be disciplined tonight.

No he doesn't. It's QPR at home.

Form is temporary, class is permanent.

Scoring Spectacularly

 

[FTY]

Much better in that deeper role, spraying some lovely balls about, and has more space to run into.

.....I'm afraid I'm hopeless at uploading clips or sending links, but if the above works hopefully you will get a feel for what I mean when I say Barkley reminds me of Bobby Chartlon. The powerful running style isn't obvious from this but the shooting strength off right and left is. I think Barkley has the potential to have a similar impact and that is a real accolade.

....this is the Bobby Charlton clip I loaded a while ago. For those not of that age, Charlton was supreme and Barkley reminds me. We need more end product from Ross, but tonight was Charltonesque.
