The Ross Barkley Thread

[Xchurch Villa]

Hats off to Ross. To me, a slightly strange player in so far as he only ever seems to be operating at half pace and yet he is so, so efficient.

What an option to have coming off the bench. He seems to have matured so so much from his 1st stint here. Like some other have said on here, does not seem to crack under pressure any more and finds space to play out of danger. He still has the ability to drive forwards as well.

I know it shouldn’t colour my judgement but that last minute free kick he gave away against Bournemouth keeps popping into my mind.

I think you're looking for the Ross Barkley thread. Or did we play Bournemouth in pre season? Can't remember.

Strayed a bit off thread there didn’t I? Yes I meant Barkley.
I was thinking of the home game against Bournemouth on 26th October.
Villa 1- 1Bournemouth.
Last minute goal for Bournemouth equalizer.

Is there any update on how serious Barkleys injury is? Could do without anymore players in the treatment room

Calf injury, 2-4 weeks I think Emery said.

Looked like a calf injury to me. Got to be 2-3 weeks at the least for that.

Not ideal with the congested fixtures coming up

Edit: although could be the excuse we need to get Dougie back on loan
