Ross Barkley

[PaulWinch again]

Well yes he has a personal issue, according to Emery, so he’s not going to be front and centre of attention. Hope he’s ok and he’s given the space he needs.

[Hookeysmith]

I hope that its not, but he had recently become a Father so i hope its not related to an issue with that part of his life.

I think we should not speculate until we know - it is obvious that the club are aware of it and are happy to support him

I was going to say could well be a family issue of some kind.

[Drummond]

Maybe he is just really upset that Ramsey went.

[eamonn]

Doubt it, seems too macho for that. Hope his babby is alright.

[Dave]

Oh hello.

[PaulWinch again]

Welcome back Ross.

[eamonn]

Roscoe lives!

[Drummond]

He's looking trim. And very serious.

[Hookeysmith]

Unlike McGinn who looks like he has been shoplifting with something under his shirt

[jwarry]

Well I hope we’ve looked after him during his troubles and now he feels he needs to repay us and prove himself yet again.  You never know he might be the catalyst we need

I don’t mind Barkley but if he’s the answer, I’m not sure what the question is.

[DB]

He was excellent last season before he got injured...again.

Question is, is he going to help us avoid relegation?

[Ian.]

Welcome back Ross, he might be useful these coming months.
