Ross Barkley

The top teams will still bid for Ross in the Summer, they will play him in his correct position and there wont be a single Albino smackhead anywhere near him.

On many occasions I have compared him Albert Quixall in the 1950s regrettable as time goes by
the comparison gets more and more accurate.

Did he used to snort lemo in Garlands as well?

They are obviously identical aren't they ffs

Having a rough patch. Team's struggling, he's struggling. It happens. He's still young and due to injuries and crap managing he's still relatively inexperienced.

No need to worry about his future, though. He's got the talent, he'll do well for us.

Mostly crap managing.

I will wager a mythical penny that no top clubs will bid for him.
I do hope the are daft enough to do so.

.Clearly the lad could do worse than study the training habits of one Steven John Naismith to model his game on.

. Naisy is the perfect mentor for Ross as he adapts to football at the very highest level. I also think Aiden has a significant part to play in Ross's tutelage

I am not sure about McGeady, but also reckon Naismith's attitude and skilfulness are vital for Barkley to learn from and try to copy

No Quixall was a better player, I saw him and I am sure you did not

He deserves to be at a club with supporters who actually support him and don't get on his back.

You know who you are.

I thought Quixall was the gravy from Aldi.

It's called confidence mate. He was rushed back from injury was poor and list confidence.

To suggest he is finished is beyond ridiculous

...and the one thing that great players have,,,to a man...and its one of the things that makes them great...is CONFIDENCE in their own ability. Its why great players do things instinctively, and why even if a great player is having a poor game, he is always dangerous. He was taken off on Sunday because he was stinking the place out in what is supposed to be 'his' position. Even when Naismith for example is having a poor game, he can be seen to be running his balls off for the team. Ross hardly ever breaks into a trot.

Quixall was a very good player, another who might have been great, but who somehow came to very little in the end. I think this is what you mean when comparing him with Barkley.
