I don't care what anyone says, the reason for Barkley's performances is the fans. Boos before the ball even got to him, its a joke and thankfully commentators are starting to pick up on how we are killing any sort of confidence the lad had. Must be impossible to play without fear when 40k fans are waiting for your next mistake to get right on your back. If it continues this way, he's better off without us and deserves a club with fans who will support him into what he'll inevitably become.
He's hiding, not wanting the ball because he is scared to upset impatient bellends in the stands who instead of supporting their team and helping them win would rather boo, in fact that's the only time the ground makes any sort of noise. Embarrassing.
I've said it before, he is 21, an Evertonian, he's not gonna be Messi every game. Now get off his backs, and start supporting not only him, but the whole team. We're ruining one of the best English talents around game by game, if you can't see that then football isn't for you.
