London Blue

In his first spell at Everton he scored 35 goals in 107 appearances, in a struggling team. On his day he was unplayable, his strength, aggression, ability to motivate others and his skill made him a very good striker. His second spell was ruined by injuries. He was a quality player for us and has become an Everton Legend, so maybe pick another player to make your point.

A good signing for us 3 or 4 years ago but not at the level we need now.

Everton legend.

Not a bad family lineage.

Ah, now all becomes clear!

He is not a left or right back, he plays across the top 3 or center forward.

Call Mulder and Scully!!

Yeah averages a goal and an assist every 6 games, great player to have in your team, if your West Ham or Stoke! For Everton, not so much.

Depends how bad the injury is, if he has had surgery and its healing then it would not necessarily prevent the deal going ahead.

Good man, have a virtual hug from me!

Center Back needed, unless we are going to let one of the youngsters play or Martina can cover there?

He created more chances than other U23 player in Europes top 5 leagues. That is good enough for us! I think 1 of two things has happend: 1) With his alleged demand to Spurs I am more convinced that he is playing hardball with Everton, this is what I want, this is what I told Spurs I want, now match it Everton. Whether its him or his adviser I don't know. 2) He has had a major fall out with Koeman, just doesn't get on with him or cant get the assurances about game time he needs. My gut feeling is that he does not want to leave, his family and friends are here, he is a Everton Fan. This is just hardball negotiating.

You a Republican?

His contract with us ends next summer so, unless he has a stormer on loan he may never return to us. Hope he makes a go of it, as Romey says he could well end up staying there.

Looking through her tweets she doesn't seem to have much credibility. Said spurs would announce a signing today, so guess we will know how good she is by end of play today.

Will fit in with allot of the West Ham squad.

Truth is we just don't know whats going on or why.

I think club screwed up in not sorting the contract out a year ago. I don't know what the difference is between the two parties but I hope it can be resolved as Barkley is a very good player. If he wont sign then I hope he is sold, what I was arguing against is punishing Barkley by not letting him play any form of football. I think that is petty and beneath us.

Not the way I want the club to treat its players. If he does not sign the club will sell him for what they can get. Koeman also will not want him sat around distracting the club.

True but if he stays and does not play at all his value will be even less in the winter transfer window.

To harsh, we don't know whats going on, we don't know what the contract offer is. Even if Barkley wants to leave for whatever reason to destroy the boy makes no sense and is not right. Either he signs or he leaves. If he stays and does not sign and does not play then his value will plummet and everyone loses.

Damaged goods and has been found out. Avoid as much better players out there.

Congrats Ramiro and family.
