Ross Barkley

Better than Dembele like (well, maybe not Dembele at his peak a few years ago but very close).

Has that same strength and agility to just breeze past players. We take it for granted but any other side in the league would beg to have that quality in their side

How many goals and assists did Dembele get even at his peak? He can't touch Ross.

lol Dembele is only 28 and is up there with the very best in the league.

Barkley will get there soon enough.

He's not tbh though.

He was superb a few years ago in his last 6 months at Fulham and first season at Spurs, but tailed off dramatically over the last few years.

He's come back into his form this season but still I'd say Barkley is just as good/or has more to his game anyway.

Opinions though and they aren't similar in loads of ways.

Always prefer Dembele when he plays higher up the field as I think that's where he's at his most dangerous - personally.

:lol:You truly are the worst.

I can see why you're such a big Martinez fan. The pair of you think midfield is for fouling and crab passing.
 

Can't be bothered looking back through the last few pages, but are him and Barkley being compared?
I made the comparison. I think they have similar styles, and that like Dembele, Barkley will have his best days deep in midfield, running games.

Obviously I forgot where I was for a moment. What I meant to say was that he is the entire French World Cup-winning midfield crammed into a short back and sides.

It's all about opinions mate, but I don't reckon Dembele can be mentioned in the same breath as Barkley, even when Dembele was in the best form of his career.
 
Ross is getting better and better all the time. Even when he's not playing brilliantly he's able to pull something out of the bag now, which is the sign of a top player.

Imagine not realising that dembele is absolutely at the top of his game though, and the odd great goal he scored at Fulham wasn't the high point of his career.
