Ross Barkley

[Pseudonym]

Barkley can do one at this stage, being a proper snake here. Not a word from him for two years, but as soon as the story of him asking for too much money from Spurs surfaces the Echo "understands" (ie gets told by his reps) that he isn't looking to be their top earners...

Does The Echo actually know anything?

Not really a fan of the "we've got a diamond" song. He's still very much a lump of coal in my humble opinion.

As much as I love to see a local lad do well, Ross just doesn't have the mental side of the game down despite being physically superb on his day.

He's just not as good as people make him out to be.

Oh so wait now when people say he's not all that it's fine cuz he's being a tit, but all of last season when I was saying it I was wrong and told off?

Sorry if already posted
From the Mirror:
Ross Barkley wants £150,000 a week to join Tottenham and Everton are demanding £50m for him, the Daily Mirror say.

The newspaper say Spurs value Barkley at more like £15m and that agreeing to his wage demands would make him the highest-paid player at the club.
Large difference in valuation

The only regret I'll have when he goes will be the loss of another of our best recent songs. First it was 'Roberto had a dream' and now we'll lose 'We got a diamond'. Maybe though we can still use it, just replace 'Ross Barkley' with 'Tom Davies' - does Tom come from Wavertree as well though......

 

[Igrok]

He wouldnt even make a bench now in many Prem league clubs

 

[BillLovesRoo]

I see his agent is a guy called Paul Martin.
Same agent as John Stones, JAck Rodwell & Jolean Lescott...........................says it all

"We've got a diamond called Ross Barkley,
A toffee, he comes from Wavertree,
He sits in seat number C23,
Together with Farhad Moshiri,
And when he needs a poo,
he'll be standing in the queue,
Cos Barkley was a toffee through and through....2....3...4....."
