Ross Barkley joins Chelsea, er, Villa on loan

[ToffeeTim]

But this is the Barkley thread Timothy... what else should we talk about ??

Talk about him all you like but he's not our player and no amount of yearning over him will change that or the circumstances he chose to leave under.

Nobody is though are they....

 

[4737carlin]

Yeah maybe but it's not him ppl are talking about, it's the ones that came at the summer

 

[PITA]

Not a hater, if he gets his confidence right could be a fantastic player, consistently. There is no doubt the talent is there.

For me you cannot categorically state that he would:

1: Fit into this team
2: Be a better player than those players that we have not seen much of.
3: Over time be more influential than players that should be playing better than they are (mainly Sigurdsson).
4: As with above, in his position or just in a general sense. If we are talking about a general attacking sense then Richarlison is, for me, miles better and has the potential to be even more miles better than Barkley could ever dream of being.

With all that being said, he didn't want to be here and that is the end of it.

All that effort posting that when the last sentence nailed it.

WHAT DID WE HAVE?

Nobody is though are they....

Are you sure about that?

 

[Kurt.]

Are you sure about that?

Ok... some probably are... not me though

We always sell the players we have boss songs for.

Are you telling us that you are a nobody? (see 2402 above).

I've always thought that you're quite cool.

 

[goodisonopheliac]

Who cares? he isnt in our squad and dosent want to be, no point us worrying about these players who dont want to stay.
A few weeks ago we were all made up with the work Brands did, no all of a sudden after a few poor games people think the new buys are crap even tho they haven even all played

Tbf, I'm made up with Richarlison and I'm not going to pass judgement on Digne et al as it's too early.

Seamus Coleman prayer circle, anyone?

Perhaps we can work this to our advantage...

Back to his natural habitat, the bench

 

[YoboCopter]

Hes in
11 mins to do his thing

Come on ross

 

[NCLBlue]

I’m surprised he was benched seemed to do well the other night? I didn’t watch it.

It’s a shame he didn’t want to stay we might’ve had him captain and not Davies.
