Frank Lampard opens up to Chelsea FC fans about Ross Barkley

Frank Lampard explains why he's been pleased by Ross Barkley's recent form for Chelsea FC

https://www.thesportreview.com/2020/01/chelsea-fc-news-ross-barkley-lampard/

Frank Lampard had admitted that he was delighted by Ross Barkley’s performance for Chelsea FC in the Blues’ 3-0 win over Burnley at the weekend.

The 26-year-old midfielder played the full 90 minutes as he helped to inspire Lampard’s men to a comfortable and important Premier League victory in front of their home fans.

Barkley has been struggling with a string of injury problems in recent months but the England international now looks to have shaken off the issues.

The former Everton midfielder will now be hoping to hold down a more regular spot in the first team at Stamford Bridge in the second half of the season.

Barkley has started just six games in the Premier League all season and he is yet to score or notch up an assist in the English top flight.

However, Blues boss Lampard has clearly been pleased by what he has seen from Barkley in recent weeks.

Speaking to Chelsea FC’s website, Lampard said: “I speak a lot with Ross and I really like him.

“He came to me a couple of weeks ago and said he was starting to feel good. It was a niggly injury, but he’s just starting to feel absolutely released from it.

“This was the performance [against Burnley] we want out of Ross. It was so positive and you saw his quality on the ball; he can hit a right-foot ball, left-foot ball, take the ball well. He looked confident.

“That’s part of Ross’s game you could maybe question if you look from the outside: how confident is he when things go against him slightly?

“This was exactly what Ross can do; an England player, playing for Chelsea, has given me a lot of thinking to do with that performance.

“He just needs to train well and he needs to play well – and he played well against Burnley. He needs to continue like that.”

Barkley has scored twice in the cup competitions for Chelsea FC this season.

He will be hoping to feature when Chelsea FC travel to Newcastle United in the Premier League on Saturday night.

Played well though against bournemouth without much playing time before 

[bigbluewillie 1,867]

I was going to say "get rid of" don't reckon him at all.

Now Lamps has said he likes him, that's good enough for me

Can't see it happening right now Barkley proved vs Burnley he can still be a useful tactical option in certain situations.

I think he will remain a squad player until the time comes to bring Gallagher in, which point he will be about 27 and at the age where he should be looking for a club he'd be a regular starter at, maybe back at Everton.

The Mirror is almost as bad as the Sun and the DM when it comes to transfer lies

I trust almost nothing now with the papers pushing shit that simply is not true (like the Sun days ago literally saying Piatek had signed for spuds, gave terms of contract and said he was flying in for a medical, all of which was 100% purely made-up lies)

it has always been bad (silly season rot) but actually flat out lying about legally binding contracts is a new low

these hack writers literally just pull names from hats and invent tales of fantasy

all these fucking loans, and then the players ofttimes are near wuthless at the end and/or walk on frees

the crazy salaries Marina negotiated in the first place bollocks us hard too in terms of getting clubs to perm buy at fair market value

I have to lol at some who think our loan system is overall a net plus (not talking about youngsters who are scheduled to eventually come into the first team, there we are doing  oki) when it never remotely comes close to clawing back transfers fees and salaries wasted on shit buys. what little we do make on dregs like Miazga (not even sure if we will turn a profit on him at the end of the day, hopefully we do), etc, is destroyed by the Drinkwaters and Bakayokos, the Babas and Zappacostas, etc etc of the world.

I cannot wait for the new rules to kick in and hopefully we start liquidating now, before they do and we are stuck with a logjam of shit in a saturated market

As a Chelsea fan I do not give a toss if Moses or Pantic or Bakayoko is out on loan l. Just sell them before we get burnt even more.

 

Out on loan (sell all of these ffs before we get burnt with loan limits and/or before they are total worthless or walk on frees))

 

GK Jamal Blackman (to Vitesse until 30 June 2020) <<< he is 27yo this year and clearly we will never play him on the first team

DF Juan Castillo (to Ajax until 30 June 2020) (Ajax have option to buy, which they will use, I still have no clue why we sold our best LB prospect when we are fucked at LB)

DF Matt Miazga (to Reading until 31 May 2020)

DF Baba Rahman (to Mallorca until 30 June 2020) << one of our worst buys ever

DF Davide Zappacosta (to Roma until 31 January 2020)<<< another pure shit panic and overpriced buy

MF Tiémoué Bakayoko (to Monaco until 30 June 2020) <<< I think Monaco buys him perm, thank dog

MF Danny Drinkwater (to Aston Villa until 30 June 2020) << words fail me

MF Lewis Baker (to Fortuna Düsseldorf until 30 June 2020)  << being sent back for disciplinary reasons, sell him, he has no future here at all

MF Kenedy (to Getafe until 30 June 2020) <<< may walk on a free, if not, renew and SELL, we were numpty cunts for not taking Newcastles quid and demanding outrageous overpay from them, we never will come close to making that loss up if he walks on a free (so typical)

MF Luke McCormick (to Shrewsbury Town until 31 May 2020)

MF Victor Moses (to Fenerbahçe until 30 June 2020) <<< all I can say is grrrrrrr

MF Charly Musonda (to Vitesse until 30 June 2020) <<< what a waste of talent, arfffff

MF Nathan (to Atlético Mineiro until 30 June 2020) << we just renewed him, but it was startegic to sell him due to season end and the Brasilians shit money situ. NOW, that said, IF we do not sell him when it gets sorted, thenjust FUCK OFF (as at that point, it was all just a lie) 

MF Danilo Pantić (to Fehévár until 30 June 2020)

MF Mario Pašalić (to Atalanta until 30 June 2020) << Atalanta is buying him in the summer, so one of the rare good outcomes all-round

FW Izzy Brown (to Luton Town until 31 May 2020)  smdh

FW Lucas Piazon (to Rio Ave until 30 June 2020) smdh 2.0

then finally, a non-loan tragedy

MF Marco van Ginkel (he may walk on a free, but wants to renew, lol, if we do renew, as soon as he is healthy, sell him)
 

keep

 

FW Ike Ugbo (to Roda JC until 30 June 2020)

DF Ethan Ampadu (to RB Leipzig until 30 June 2020)

MF Dujon Sterling (to Wigan Athletic until 31 May 2020)

MF Conor Gallagher (to Swansea City until 31 May 2020)

DF Trevoh Chalobah (to Huddersfield Town until 31 May 2020)

DF Marc Guehi (to Swansea City until 31 May 2020)

GK Nathan Baxter (to Ross County until 30 June 2020) <<< tbh, no clue here, I am very unfamiliar with his talent and future

 

finally, these 3 we need to decide soonish on, as none appear to be Chels quality atm, and they will take up loan cap space eventually I think (depending on the rules)

 

DF Jake Clarke-Salter (to Birmingham City until 31 May 2020) <<< we do soon have to decide what we are going to do with him before the other 2, he turns 23yo and seems like he is not Chels talent to me atm

DF Josh Grant (to Plymouth Argyle until 31 May 2020) 

DF Richard Nartey (to Burton Albion until 31 May 2020)

Been a poor season from him but surely he can have offered much more than what Mason has for weeks on end where he has been very very poor?

I know this is Masons first PL season but he hasnt offered a lot in the last run of games and its frustrating that Frank seems stubborn in his selection along with no natural LB of late.

This talk of Mason does the pressing etc is an excuse, almost Oscar-esque for his selection, he is a number 10, scoring and assisting goals as well as creating chances is what he should be doing but he hasnt of late.

I said beforehand Franks lack of use of Ross, Giroud (although Tammy has done better than expected and his form hasnt been as inconsistent as Mason or Willians for instance) and Pedro this season has been rather strange.

Good player. Should play more. 

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Possibly his best game for us in 15 months or so, since that good spell under Sarri.

Another interesting stat. Barkley played just 6 times full 90 minutes this season. We won all 6 games.

Barkley still is one of our worst players regardless. Shows how bad Pool were if guys like Barkley can look good against them
