2017/18 Ross Barkley

Only thing I'm annoyed about is if no one buys him and he leaves on pre-contract in January shanking us out of money after we've developed him (tried to anyway).

Good luck on the bench of whichever Top 6 side takes a punt on you though lad.

That's the only thing I've been bothered about really, losing out on a fee or portion.......
 

Don't get this at all...

Supposed to be a massive blue, and at the exact time that we are (hopefully) on the up, he wants out?! Doesn't make any sense to me.

It's not like there are a whole host of bigger clubs banging on the door for him; the link to Spurs is one thing, but in all honesty is that really a massive step up? Could be argued that they look a little in danger of standing still this summer + I'm doubtful he'll be anywhere near their first XI for the time being. The Man Utd link seems tenuous at best; can't see that being legit.

I've always felt we've seen maybe 85% of what Ross has to offer; but as the seasons go by, I just doubt he's ever going to become the player we all hoped he would be. He's a good premier league player; but he's never going to be a great. The lad who sits next to me does his nut in about him slowing down the play all the time - I think he's right; it's like his mind is a half-second behind all the time.

Got to wonder if there is more going on behind the scenes here; maybe he's got personal problems living in Liverpool? Maybe something more to that 'fight' the other month? I just can't understand why he'd want to jump ship now; he should be all over this new money-spending Everton - maybe he's just got no stomach to fight for his place?
 
Koeman is a fool for messing this up so bad.

I always put what's best for the club first, and I think Steve Walsh & Farhad Moshiri have the clubs best interest at heart; however, Koeman is not the right fit in this. I hope we perform well under him and he leaves as soon as possible. The way he has handled this whole Ross situation has left me very sour on his abilities as a manger.
 

Who have they ever taken who's done well for them or improved after leaving us though? The only person who did well was Lescott and that wasn't because he got better it was because a poor player like him can say he won the prem twice! If were gonna lose Ross it might as well be to City, they'll destroy the lads career.

I don't like the way he left... but lescott was not a poor player... he was immense for us.
