Probably should be arsed tbh as not getting selected yet again is only going to wreck his confidence even more.

Isn't Ali injured as well ?

I feel like someone needs to grab him, give him a good shake and tell him he's on the verge of completely screwing up his career if he's doesn't pull his finger out.

He's got more natural talent in this little toe than some of the players in the current england squad and yet he seems to be wasting it all. I don't see Koeman and his grim tactics ever getting the best out of him either.

Bet 99% of the premier leagues other midfielders wish they could get as many goals & assist & create as many Chances as him when constantly passing backwards.
You can go on squawka & it gives you percentages of passes forwards or backwards I'd suggest you do it go on the player matrix.

you will find your opinion is based upon a misconception.


Again.... stats? They're not accurate... apparently he created 7 chances against palace.... a game where we had two shots all match... the stats are crap.... taking a corner isn't creating a chance IMO... people need to stop reading so deep into stats... just watch him play.... he's not that good.

Appreciate what your saying but the reason people quote stats is because they don't agree with each other's opinion & stats are simple factual information.

You say stats are not accurate that's plain wrong of course there accurate that's the point of them.

I suppose you mean they don't accurately depict a players game.

However I genuinely believe Barkley is a player who isn't always fairly represented by stats instead he is better than They suggest.
 
i thought he was gonna have a shocker after his interview last week after the game "that he's overcome a bad patch" after just one decent game ! :-(

So in other words you ARE saying stats aren't accurate! Remember the saying " there's lies, damned lies and statistics".

Exactly... In more than one sense. His confidence is too easily knocked and he also doesn't have great football intelligence. I still think we can get much, much more out of him but I'm resigned to now not thinking he'll become the player I once thought he would.
