Whatever Barkley has said, and whatever context it is meant, he isn't better than what we currently have at the club and that's all that matters to me.

Compare his sideways passing and wayward shooting to Sighurdssons defence splitting passing and accurate shooting and that pretty much decides it for me.

Bottom line is for me he's nowhere near Sigis quality and still won't be in 10 years time. I've moved on and so has the team.

Better not Bitter.

I think Barkley is a quality player with real ability who has amazing potential that injuries have curtailed. If he can stay fit will blossom. But he has a mouth totally disconnected from any brain and even if there is a connection, he makes Rooney look like a genius! What the **** is he doing coming out with comments about EFC now anyway? The guy might be a great footballer, but he is an person for getting involved with his past club and silly comments!

{Ed025's Note - a rocking horse has more brains than ross degsy, amazing potential only matters if you realize it and up to now he is falling well short mate..

Eds sound like bitter blues and should respect the talent Barkley has. bit childish to rubbish him just because he's no longer with us. yes frustrated with his exit but still a talent.

{Ed025's Note - your wrong trev i have always been consistent where ross is concerned, bags of talent but has never grown up and has made some terrible life choices imo mate, as a wavertree lad myself i was desperate for him to do well, this is not sour grapes its an indictment of how fame and fortune have blighted his career and if he turns it around then no one will be happier than me, this is of course just my opinion and you are entitled to yours..

I have always likened RB to Gazza. Like Gazza superb with the ball at his feet, like Gazza a potential game winner, like Gazza thick as two short planks. We are better off without him. I like what we have.

His final pass and decision making let's him down. If and it's a big If, he can sort that part of his game he could be a very good player. Unfortunately they are two very hard traits to coach at the speed the prem is played at.
Those traits are the difference between good and great players.

No one has said He's a bad player it was his attitude that let him down.

{Ed001's Note - personally I would say it is his terrible lifestyle, poor choice of friends and laziness in training that let him down. Ed025 might be a bit harsh on him, but he has a very good point, Barkley was all potential, potential that would never have been achieved at Everton as he was being overhyped and thought he was already great. He simply wasn't great and was exceedingly average but had the potential to be much better. I still do not see anything special about him.}

Like I said may times in the past. he has ability and that ability has constantly been held back with injuries both severe and mild. He has only ever had one constant run of games and that was with Everton and he scored 8 goals that season and created loads for Lukaku. In my opinion he is a really great player. But as both Eds have said and I also said, he makes poor life choices and also is as dim as a 10 watt light bulb when opening his mouth. I think his call into the Chelsea first team and his inclusion in the England team that beat Spain in Spain shows exactly what ability he has. He has now scored a few goals in his last few games and also had a few assists. If he continues staying fit and stays working hard, he will show his ability. Perhaps the one decision he made that was a good decision was to leave Everton? I only say this because he had surrounded himself with bad advice and needed a fresh start. But he has since spoilt that decision with further comments about Everton FC. He has supposedly moved on so should do that and shut up about Everton.

{Ed025's Note - spot on degsy mate..
