Ross Barkley

[ToffeeTim]

Yeah, it was all Barkley's fault. Even when he wasn't on the pitch.

Barkley has so far too much ability to be performing so abjectly. That's the difference. Mirallas, Valencia etc haven't got an ounce of the talent. But their performances are not much different.

Barkley is yet another of our talented youngsters who just simply hadn't the mental strength to succeed. He won't be missed, which is a shame. As long as we replace him adaquately with quality, and a better mentality.

Davies probably they seem to hate local lads coming good.

Twitter has already started on that.

Statement tomorrow? Hmm.

Why does he have to make a statement unless he's already been sold???

 

[bicycleheader]

I'm in a koff Koeman mood now.

Just like the start of the season really

 

[kenada_blue]

No doubt to say he's been transfer listed

Masterstroke in reducing the transfer fee.

Unless Ross has handed a transfer request.

Why does he have to make a statement unless he's already been sold???

Because he engineered a situation where he keeps getting asked questions and he's expected to answer.

He's dug his own hole on this one, so he has to finish it. The statement will be to officially transfer list Barkley and probably withdraw the contract.

Sad that they can't feel happy for the lads instead of resenting them. Guess seeing someone of the same background come good makes them feel inadequate or something.

 

[Fansince1988]

He's gone.

Good he's to inconsistent, as soon as he has time to think it all goes wrong for him. It's all in there naturally but I'm not sure he knows what to do with it. I actually wish him luck elsewhere but I fear he will land up another Rodwell but then again that won't be our problem.

Sounds like Ron wants this settled sooner rather than later, probably wants to publicly state he's off and start the circus. If he is off, it needs to be done ASAP, we can't afford a summer long soap opera to disrupt the transfer dealings that need to be completed. Bye Ross lad.

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Statement tomorrow suggests he's willing to listen to offers, or something along those lines.

I'm sorry, but this really is ridiculous. This is ego over the club - no matter what, he shouldn't be making comments like this about a valuable asset for the club as a business, as it devalues the asset.

 

[BlueLlama]

You are all in denial about him. He's had a poor/mixed season but he is capable of great things, If you think him going makes us stronger you know very little about football.

What an absolute s**t storm he's created when all he had to do was keep it quiet.

Now he's gonna turn Barkley into another Judas and lower his fee.

Nice on Ronald. You gonna do the same with Lukaku??

 

[Saint Domingo]

Was his biggest fan as I think his talent is endless but he's not arsed and he's shown that over a long period for us. If he goes and tears it up for someone else then fair enough because he's not doing it for us. If he was giving everything and the rest of the team was failing him you'd say fair enough, but he's walking round the pitch. He is not arsed about Everton.
