Hypothetically speaking, how easy would it be to be deceptive through the media in order to manipulate the RS/potential suitors during the transfer window into thinking the injury is more serious than it actually is? Well, it would be very easy to be honest as the general public cannot fathom a professional organisation (Everton) doing such a thing.
Moreover, Evertonians would soon forget any "white lie" they are told about Barkley if he was to be in the starting XI v the RS...
Food for thought.

Officially the club is saying "3 to 6 weeks". From the injury (January 4th) to the derby it's 3 weeks and 3 days. Within the window. The RS can't say we're not being truthful if he makes it back for the derby at the eleventh hour.

Would it even matter if we were not being truthful?

Not at all. What was I thinking...

How do you know the club is placing the time frame from the injury date and not from when it was announced? Just doesn't make sense to me.
For example, if a player was injured 2 weeks ago and someone says they will be out for 2 weeks do you assume they mean they are now fit to play or that they will need another couple of weeks to get fit?

What would we do with a 'want-away' Ross Barkley?
After watching Cabaye score there against West Ham, I think this season has truely smashed the notion that if a player wants to leave it's better for the club the let them go. United struggle when Rooney is not there and we all know about Suarez. Three high profile want-aways. Many of us thought 'just let them ****ing go'. But it has worked in their favor to hold them down.
Would you feel the same about an Everton player like Barkley 'just let him go' or would you feel we need to hold him against his will?, considering what we have seen from this year.

Hold him unless someone pays the price we want - up to the point where he has 1 and a half years on his contract - then sell in the jan transfer window. However, its not going to happen...

Players come, players go. The club endures. As will we.
So why even bother worrying about something you have no control over?
