Ross Barkley

I'd sooner swap Willian + Bakayoko for Aaron Lennon than have Barkley start games for us, even on a free.

I like Barkley, he needs coaching by a top coach, he needs moulding because somewhere underneath he is a very good footballer.

 

He showed glimpses of becoming a top footballer at one point. He has doen fuck all in a while though.

You could be talking about Bakayoko here

[Eidur the Spider 4,515]

Could he be the one to chip in with goals from midfield we've sorely missed since Super Frank left? Not saying he will be THAT successful but surely worth a punt and another option. Under Conte he could flourish.

[The Skipper 20,593]

Should’ve signed two of DD, Barkley and Bakayoko. Not all three. RLC isn’t coming back next season guys.

IT'S HAPPENING!

[Artandur 939]

The good thing i take from this is, that 3-5-2 seems to be the future...

[turgi 71]

Where do we fit him?

[Eidur the Spider 4,515]

15 million for a still young Englishman with lots of room to improve is a great deal. I'm all for it, probs in the minority.

Telles and either of Caraasco/Lemar to follow...

He turns 25 this year. Feels like it's now or never for him.

Hopefully he comes in motivated then dude!

As mentioned on the previous page, this would surely be the end for RLC's hopes of breaking through our team next season. That fucking sucks.

15m?? This is astonishing deal.

For an English talent in this market its a steal. We have the end of his contract to thank.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Drinkwater, Barkley and Bakayoko. 

Such skill and technique.

If only we invested in proper midfileder and use RLC. 

Just imagine we are buying Drinks and Barkley, sell RLC, those two end up average and RLc turn into fine midfielder. 

We can just stop being involved in football then.

[Pizy 18,368]

Buying all these midfielders in recent windows and yet Cesc is still irreplaceable. With Barkley, we'll have about 4 (5 if you count RLC) of the same sort of midfielder and only one creative one.

We should've made a play for Arturo Vidal on a short term contract to bridge the gap to RLC. Watch Ruben now move to Liverpool or another of our rivals and become world class.
