Ross Barkley

Lineker virtually asked Roy outright what everyone else is wanting.. A young side to just go and have a crack..
Roy immediately went on the defensive.

Amazes me, and I'm not an England fan btw, although English. ( ? ) BUT I would get right behind a young side and not the old guard.
Kane, Ross, Alli.. Would excite me no end.. And scare a few opponents too..

As this is a Ross thread, I can just see him going away ( again ) and not doing anything, which would set Us back again as a club.

Don't care what he says, there's no way a manager like Hodgson fits Alli and Barkley into the same team without dropping Henderson, which he'd never do.

Did you see the game against NUFC ??? If so who was that carthorse wearing Shelvey's shirt. ?

Don't worry about it mate, there's some infatuation with Shelvey on here. He was awful playing for that, he was average for Swansea and now he's played 3 good passes for Newcastle he's the new Xavi.

He's not arsed. He's awful. He's not Russ and he's not even good enough to wash his boots.

Thank you for coming on here and enlightening us Mr Nostradamus.

In the meantime we will continue to enjoy one sublime young scouse Evertonian making the attacking midfield position look easy.

You can call me Nostradamus if you like or you can say that i share the same opinion as Roy Hodgson on Ross Barkley.
I do not say Ross is not good enough for England - all i am saying is that he is not a good enough nr 10 playmaker , distributor - not even for a top 5 side but maybe for Everton if we are happy remaining a mid table team.
Everton has a very poor record for a side with the best attacking midfielder in their engine room -
look what Mahrez has done for Leicester for example
i think Barkley must still find his best position as a team player and not a lone ranger

1. Find a bin

3. Remain stationary for the foreseeable future.

We're the third top scorers in the league. Creating and scoring has not been an issue this season.

I could have said :"Please do not remove your blindfold in the forseeable future for the bright light of reality will permanently blind you -
rather let other experts like Hodgson convince you after they have seen it clearly." - but i won't.
A very small percentage of fans outside Everton believe that we have in Barkley a future world star nr 10(nevermind a present one) in our midst -
How many of our goals from open play has been created by our main creator ?
By the way ,our real main creator has been Deulefeu - but he is not good enough to even make the starting line-up.Neither is Mirallas - Martinez seems to favour English players like Lennon, Cleverly and Osman and even oddly Kone above those two.
Everton fans in general get carried away too quickly with English players - since our "world star" defenders Stones and Baines have been dropped we started seeing clean sheets again.
Stones and Barkley and Baines are similar in that they all have very strong points but at the same time very weak ones - all three are not complete players yet - England lacks real world stars like Gerard, young Roony, Terry, Giggs , Lampard ,Shearer etc- that is why their international football is in the state it is.
You can not put Barkley and Stones in that league yet ,can you?
potential means nothing in practice - lets focus on reality rather than potential -
you can bin me and my opinion straight away - of course i may be wrong - but remember you might be wrong too -
but you are fully entitled to your opinion - and i will listen to it with the respect it deserves without dooming it to failure forthright like you did with mine - only time will tell.
