Its not even that Eggs - the rumours are rife he has to leave the area a good distance away if he ends up at unt then this is a bad rumour - we have lost players before Alan Ball etc not one player is bigger than our club - but bally was special barkley is only potential - what I cannot understand is we sign klassen and then go after a more similar expensive sigi why not just get Sigi in the first place?
Then pay more for a top goalscoring striker?

Because Klaassen and Sigurdsson play in diff position. Klaassen is box to box while Sig is a playmaker.
 
Mate, we replace Ross with Gylfi then, job done!
You said that was easy we are paying £50 million it's took weeks & still isn't quite done he is 5 years older.

Not interested if he is better or not you said it was easy which is as i have now pointed out 3 times wrong.
 
mad that this has gone on for so long, it's been confirmed by the manager he's rejected the contract.... and we've not heard a peep from ross himself, not a single direct quote
 
Oh boy.

He became an England international under the previous manager.

Did Barkley have a decent season? An ok one. He improved nothing in his game. That was just commentariat BS.

Would've happened anyway. He also severely lost his confidence under the previous manager.

What are the rumours like ?
 

Its a fact any performance Ross out in in a defeat only him and Robles to my recollection for his one mistake got publicly criticised by RK
- as I stated I have heard its for totally different reasons, but we may never find out the reason why? Ross has potential he is better than Klassen imo!

...his woeful performance in the Derby at Goodison was indicative of the frustration that Barkley is. When we most wanted our best player to produce, Henderson made him look like a little schoolboy. Barkley ended up kicking him when I wanted to see the opposite. A free kick near the end gave us an opportunity to get the ball into the box, Barkley miskicked it into the Gwladys St. I can imagine Koeman thinking what I was thinking.

I was happy with Barkley staying, I love watching him when he's playing well but we needed somebody who positively impacted games week in week out.

Well that's not hard to figure out. It's another atrempt by Ross and his people to make the club look like the bad guys and Ross the injured party. A formal stament or a transfer request would be a public awknolagement that its Ross forcing the club's hand. A fact that some seem incapable of excepting for some reason.

It isn't wrong at all.

Ross is going, he is coming in, it is actually quite simple.

As for your break down, yes he is costing 50m or thereabouts, but some will be recouped for Ross and for McCarthy, so don't really see that as a major sticking point personally.

He was equally as bad at the pit and was nearly sent off there too.
