Ross Barkley

[DB]

And Matty Cash and Watkins.

…and Buendia.

[PaulWinch again]

I thought he’d flopp this season but he’s definitely had some good moments

Strange comment after the season he had last year.  He was never going to be a starter here with a full squad, but definitely a contributor - and he's doing just that.

Indeed he is the absolute epitome of a quality player to add squad depth.

[VillaTim]

He's done really well when called upon . Scored some important goals too . Long may it continue.

[rob_bridge]

For years we didn't have squad breadth or depth. Or didn't utilise what we had.

Barkley is exactly the type of player we need to plugs gaps in midfield especially with McGinn, Youri and Rogers being able to play more advanced

[SaddVillan]

We just can't get a break.

Meatball- hammy.
And now Barkley.

ai Emery says Ross Barkley could be out for up to three weeks after the Aston Villa midfielder picked up a calf injury in Friday’s FA Cup victory over West Ham United.

[Somniloquism]

We might need to look at getting a central midfielder in at this rate.

[London Villan]

Calling Turin.

[LeeB]

Calling Turin.

"Look, you're not using him, come on. Promise we'll sort you out later, you can have first dibs on Ollie in the summer"

Royaume-Uni...douze points!

Gutted for the lad, just seemed to be getting going. And he looked gutted when he had to go off.

[Villafirst]

UE said Barkley is still about a week away from returning to training.

Be good to get him back, he’d been impressive this season

[rougegorge]

Any update on when Barkley may be available? When he got injured a month ago, I thought it was only a small calf injury?

[kippaxvilla2]

That turned out to be bull.

[Tuscans]

Barkley...

"MCL tear*. Calf happened trying to play on with the knee issue. Not far off 👍🏻"
