Imagine being a professional football player and sabotaging your own career by getting run out of your own city and boyhood club all because you were so intimidated by a handful of lads occasionally shouting "turn Ross!" at the match and a little Lacoste wearing scally threatening to knock you out for goosing his bird........

He is a bit of a pathetic character really is Ross, reckon his best bet would be to find a move abroad somewhere and start over again.
 

He wouldn't last five mins without a carer in a country where he doesn't speak the language. He can barely cope here without one! The lad is as thick as six short planks.
Then he is going to end up in the Championship tbh as I don't see any PL team coming in for him. He was hyped up a bit too much by us imo and I don't think he is particularly strong from a mental pov and I think he has just failed over the years to meet the expectations when the reality was he actually pretty average in the first place and when truly in the moment he could offer a little bit extra but most of the time it was all a bit meh.
 

Would still take him on loan but don't think either Everton or Barkley would be interested. West Ham or Newcastle seem like the kind of clubs I’d expect him to now join.
