Ross Barkley

You appear to be trusting stats.

Honest question, do you not watch Everton games?

If you did, you wouldnt need stats.

For example, that game the other day when Stickleback cocked up, Payet got an assist for his 2 yard pass to Pogba, thats how comical stats are.

Alternatively against Arsenal in the F A cup 2 years ago Ross ran down the right wing beating those in his way , got to the byline and crossed for Mirallas to fluff an open goal opportunity, the ball squirmed to Rom to touch the ball over the line. Kev got the assist !

Dropping down the pecking order. That's with McCarthy and Besic both unavailable too.

Keep the faith lads. He's going through a tough patch, needs support to help him on his way back. Hope he comes on today and bags the winner

Thought this game would have suited him to be honest as City will afford him plenty of space. Normally does well against them tbf.

He gives the ball away to easily. We'll struggle for possession as it is today, so I get the logic

Ross Barkley is a brilliant player, not playing in one big game does not mean that Koeman has lost faith or he's not good enough. He's not the greatest a tracking back or closing down. It's unlikely that we will have a tougher game this season or face a better team.

Omitted Ridiculously

Omitted worryingly.

Reason being, since my last post, I was listening to a podcast and it was mentioned (although obvious) Barkley has just had an entire international break with Koeman (aside from days off) and hasn't done enough to convince Koeman to start him.

If true.

Then that's fully deserved, hope he rested up well and improved that handicap.

Know what you're saying, but the teams we have been playing Ross has been getting a lot of close attention that he's not been able to cope with. Reckon he'd have got a lot more freedom today. They're playing a very attacking formation though so it's probably a good call to fill the midfield and try and hit them on the break.

For Tom Cleverley.

His name even works with this ffs.

Still may do something from bench.
