Ross Barkley

[GwladysPhil]

Looking at the picture for Ross's instagram story. Man he looks WAAAY more fit than last year. I know a lot of us thought he got a bit out of shape, but man, he looks like he lost 1.5 - 2 stone

Mate I thought exactly the same but after seeing him in the last few matches.

He definitely looked more bulky last year, a combination of muscle and fat.

Last year he was fit he just had far too much bulk muscle on him. He's probably just as strong now but more lean.

Fit for you and me but if he was carrying too much bulk/muscle (I would argue there was a couple pints or desserts there too). I believe there were comments during the England camp he was not fit. In any event he wasn't fit for 90 minutes of EPL. He does look significantly leaner. At least in that pic.

 

[Bud McBlokeski]

Agreed. He looks lean and mean. He needed quickness not power, and it looks like that is where he is headed.

couple pints

He doesn't drink, does he?

He doesn't drink, does he?

I don't know, more making a comment about some was diet based. Not that he is Gibson, I don't think it was all Muscle is the point. I'm not trying to slag him off, I couldn't be happier with his form and I was just thinking he looks noticeably more trim this year.

Hopefully he's still strong enough for faux hardmen like Emre Can to bounce off him when they push him.

He has just said in a interview he's growing out his hair because his mum wanted to see what it looked like.

Awww hahaha

Just read that hahaha. Gotta love young Ross' interview style he's still just like a schoolboy.

Think Jamie Redknapp needs to just shut up and keep pretending he's of any us to the footballing world:

"I think there's also a question mark over how long Barkley will stay at Everton. There was obviously some breakdown in his relationship with Ronald Koeman earlier this year and he's spoken about how he finds it hard to be the local hero there.

With just 18 months left on his contract, he is in control of the situation. But it may be the best thing for him if he moves on."

So Everton and Barkley are in flying form, Ross looks happy and full of confidence so he comes up with that?

He doesn't drink, does he?

What was he going to Garlands for then?

Actually don't answer that

 

[Shibbywiggles]

He also had a little dig at the RS and their terrible form, saying we're looking forward to the derby... glad someone is!

The atmosphere and trannies on stilts I imagine

Yeah I mean he could've said about how Koeman was really hard on Barkley at first and even dropped him from the first team but that actually worked out for the best as Ross has come back fighting and is now in the most consistent form of his career but nah mate you're right, Koeman said he wasn't playing well when he wasn't playing well so he should probably leave the club, why not?
