Hopefully he moves to Manchester City and follows a similar career path as Jack Rodwell. I don't want to play devils advocate, but given how Koeman has spoken about him publicly in the last year you can see why Barkley doesn't want to play for him.

LFCMadLad Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 And here we have it. I've said season after season that Barkley is shite and hasn't got the bottle and here we are... Everton don't want him and neither does anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HK85 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 There's not been much talk of his ability from Koeman since the turn of the year, it's just been the relentless contract talk. Could have should have been handled better and away from the cameras but the outcome would still be the same. Most people knew he was leaving a week after the Arsenal game when he turned down the contract. Injured for a month as well so will take longer for him to leave.

Chaaay AFC Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 I'd straight swap him for Chamberlain, think it would be a good deal for all parties. Not sure Chamberlain would go Everton though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UNORTHODOX Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Surely Koeman is mostly to blame for this, Constantly talking about contractual disputes to the media has obviously rattled Barkley a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ Posted July 27, 2017 Subscriber Share Posted July 27, 2017 I don't get the Barkley top 4 links at all. What has he done to justify that? Overhyped like most young English players. I fail to see what he's done in his own mind to outgrow Everton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machado Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Barkley isn't exactly a special player. I don't know why he thinks he can get better than Everton. He's lucky to play for Everton and not the other way around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross has been pampered by David Moyes and Roberto Martinez, now that we have a manager that has ''been there and done that'' on the international stage his anonymous performances won't cut the mustard. Don't get me wrong, I've always liked Ross as he's been ''one of our own'' but he's hardly a world-class footballer, if we can offload him and sign Gylfi Sigurdsson to go with Davy Klaasen we'll be laughing ourselves silly. I didnt see Koeman saying the same things about Lukaku when he was giving about 30% at the end of last season. It was always Ross. Why would he want to stay somewhere like that? 13 hours ago, LFCMadLad said: And here we have it. I've said season after season that Barkley is shite and hasn't got the bottle and here we are...

Last season was a big one for him and he performed well. His attitude and determination will decide if he's a success at his next club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted July 27, 2017 Author Subscriber Share Posted July 27, 2017 Koeman has "gone on about Barkley" all season because the shit house media haven't stopped asking about him since he was dropped for being in poor form. Koeman was honest about Barkley's performances not being good enough and that was enough to make it into this big saga. Thing is that it actually worked and Ross played much better in the second half of the season. Mourinho did the same thing with some of United's players this season and when Martial and Shaw each put in one or two good performances following a public kick up the arse, Jose's man management was praised. In contrast, Koeman received no credit for Barkley's consistent improvements since December and instead has been slated for not handling the situation well. Go figure.

Smiley Culture Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Does anyone actually want Barkley though? Admittedly I try and not read any papers or watch sports news during the summer because it's filled with rumour after rumour and very little substance or interest but I cannot remember seeing anything fairly serious about Barkley's future.

At the moment, no. As of last week there was no approach from any club. He will end up at Spurs when he's recovered from his surgery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't doubt he has ability, it's the mentality he lacks. He's not really a team player. There was rumour on Talksport this morning of Barkley being linked to ManU, I'm praying it's just idle gossip. If he does leave he'd be better suited to Scottish footy....
