5 players set for a big Premier League season

#5 Ross Barkley (Chelsea)

Barkley joined Chelsea from Everton in January 2018

It was an up and down season for Ross Barkley at Chelsea last time out. The England midfielder at times looked to finally be reaching the potential he showed while at Everton, yet at other times, he looked totally out of place in this Chelsea side.

Had it not been for the Blues’ transfer ban this summer, there is a good chance that Barkley would have been replaced in the team, and he would have found opportunities limited.

However, with the transfer ban now in place, and Frank Lampard returning to Chelsea as manager, there is certainly a lot of hope for Barkley this coming season.

If there is anyone he would want to learn from, it’s Lampard, a man who had endless success for Chelsea in the position Barkley is currently playing.

The 25-year-old has had a strong pre-season, and is now at a stage where he should be hitting his peak, and he will be given the chances he needs by Lampard in the Chelsea midfield.
