He's a class act.
I enjoy watching him play, even if it if for the bitters. The upside is they will struggle. There's nobody in their squad which can produce a moment of magic aside of Meireles, and they don't seem too keen to play him.
But do you feel sorry for David Moyes.I feel sorry for him.
I feel sorry for Everton.
I'm very emotional at this terrible, terrible news.
I might be in a minority of one here, but I actually do get slightly peeved when great players like Barkley, Van Persie, Aguero, etc get injured and are out for ages. Don't you want to watch great players all the time? Well, I do. I watch every single game I can, and if I'm watching Everton I'd much prefer to sit there and look at how Barkley plays the game than Steven fuckin Naismith.
Same goes for United; fuck watching Hernandez running around doing zip fuck all. Van Persie's one of the great forwards of our time - I want to watch him.
And same again goes for wishing injury on other players too as if it somehow advantages us. Back in the day, (look away now Britishers) Down were playing Tyrone and Peter Canavan was apparently going to be ruled out injured - which I let my Dad know as this'd be great for us desperate Down folk. My wise oul man said "you should want him to play, you should always want to beat a team when they're at their best - gives you zero excuses."
I like that. Fuck hoping for excuses, be good enough yourselves.
Now throw all the tomatoes at me you like.
I like the sentiment, but surely Everton and Utd are the exceptions, not to mention your main example is a complete prick in RVP.
I'm all for beating teams at their best but at the end of your career nobody looks back and asks if everyone was fit against you.
They look at who won what trophies and after last year I hope every single team loses their best players and right before they play us.
Do you think Germans are sitting at home thinking, "ah shit, this world cup is a bit tarnished because Ageuro was not match fit and Di Maria was out??

AmenI prefer to see utd minus 7 players, and get twatted at home by Swansea.
You'd like to feel him up, wouldn't you?There is talent in Barkley, no doubt.
He needs to take the next step though, and I am not talking on his dietary plan to move from crispy pancakes and orange soda to fried rice with gatoradwe, because what I see now is too much of the Barosesque head-down, trying to do it all ball hogging.
You'd like to feel him up, wouldn't you?
Unless that player is Theo Walcott and they just continue to pick up injury after injury.Young players can have runs of injuries before hardening up. Barkley may be the same. Unfortunately.

What do you think I'm trying to deflect?
