Ross Barkley

Would shine at any club where he doesn't have to play next to Gareth Barry.

 

[Saint Domingo]

If we sell Ross then we've gone wrong, simple as that. We cried out for years about not having attacking threat from midfield then we get a quick strong scouser who can score with both feet. Now we've managed to degrade him to a slow unfit wreck with no confidence and a fear of passing forward. Well done Everton.

Ross and Gueye in deep midfield should have been our star pairing. Koeman didn't have the balls to do it. Bit risky letting Barkley play there when you can just play the pensioner Barry instead who'll let any man and his dog run off him.

Let's get some quality in the side around him. Players that will actually move into space and create things, which will ease the burden on Ross' young shoulders. If we are still seeing inconsistent and poor performances, then is the time to move Ross on not before.

Barry hasn't got the legs any more in that position to track runners and I feel Ross doesn't have the knowledge or discipline to play that role further forward. Get in schneiderlin and Gana alongside him and get two wide players with pace ahead of him, who make runs off the ball. Ross and the whole team will benefit.

Where does the 'try him at Central midfield' come from? His work rate is almost as bad as Deulofeu. He lacks the footballing brain to track people's runs. He can't tackle.

For me, he just hasn't progressed the way he should have. Maybe that's down to his leg break a few years ago, maybe it's a confidence issue. I just don't know how we'll get the best from him.

The idea that fans criticising him on twitter or indeed in the ground could be a reasonable cause of any lack of form at any point and that they are to blame is absolute horse manure.

Time to sell.

Okay last 6 months we have given Gibson Barry & baines new contracts & you want to sell Barkley. Continued decision making of this Calibre will definitely see us getting back to the top

Why would it be horse manure ?

How could anyone possibly know the effects other than Barkley himself or perhaps those he has confided in.

 

[Badge1878]

*gasp*

Why?

 

[Caolam]

I would like to see him playing in a mid field with Gana and Schneiderlin with two up front to give our attack some variety.

New keeper

New centre half
Williams Funes Mori

Coleman Gana Schneiderlin Baines
Barkley

New forward Lukaku

It could be a cause, but it would never be a reasonable one on Barkley's part, because fans can't be held responsible for the poor performances of any player of his experience and age.
