Ross Barkley joins Chelsea, er, Villa on loan

[Toffee in Jandals]

Best game he ever played was when he went off i jured and let inNaisnith for a hat trick...which was also the best game he ever played too.

Not bad going that, 2 world class performances in 1 game

Besic was brilliant when we beat City 2-1 in the league cup semi 1st leg a couple of years' back. Had Yaya Toure and Fernandinho on toast. http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/35155377

I don't wish to sound rude about Ross, but did anyone else reckon that he didn't come across as the brightest candle in the candelabra. He always had a look on his boat akin to befuddlement. He ran well with the ball but appeared confused as to what to do next. As I said, it's just a personal observation, he might have a PhD in cosmology for all I know

Went to school with the Lad and I honestly don’t think I ever seen him without that gormless expression on his face like. Never spoke to him all that much but he did come across abit thick like

The game where Barry was MOTM, as for Besic we should of sold him the next day while his stock was high

No, he's as dumb as a box of hair.

Another game as an unused sub.

LOL

 

[Stutheblue]

He looked good with that subs bib on.

 

[marsh]

Ran the show once again

 

[kev]

Knew he would come good.
In line for this years 'man of the bench' award

 

[kithnou]

Building up nicely, ready to be unleashed.

 

[MikeH72]

Did he really not get on the pitch AGAIN? Despite them resting Hazard and Willian??

 

[Brisan123]

Eh he could have always known that he wasn't really hot @#$# and cashed in while he had the chance. A lot of clubs are going to start ramping down spending soon.

Man City , PSG and others say hello

 

[BigBlueConk]

The Chelsea dream.

At last the lad is showing some consistency

 

[Yarrgh]

Don't they have a mascots outfit or something so he can do something useful on match days?

I'd love to suffer on 100+k a week mind you. Sitting on my backside and doing a bit of keep fit for that money for the next 5 years or so. I wish I'd did less work at school and been better at games now.
