Considered to be the next big hope for English football, Ross Barkley had had a mixed start to his Premier League campaign so far. One of the most talented players in the Everton squad, Barkley was dropped by Koeman in a key match against Manchester City. Speaking about his tough treatment towards Barkley, Koeman said:
“Yes, he’s young but after four years of playing in the Premier League don’t mention that too much. He is experienced, and yes, he needs to perform. That’s what everybody needs to do.”
The Merseyside lad seemed to take the criticism on the chin and has come back looking much sharper than before. He even scored a goal after his comeback to the team and Ronald Koeman will be hoping that the immensely talented Barkley lives up to his potential this year.
