1. Ross Barkley
Age: 20 | Club: Everton | Nationality: English | Position: Attacking Midfielder | Premier League Appearances: 17
The English media are notorious for their over the top praise for any youngster who has the potential to be a half decent player but in the case of Ross Barkley, we’re only too happy to join the bandwagon. Why? Simply because the boy is a serious talent.
Barkley’s hardly an unknown talent who’s risen from nowhere as Moyes had handed him his debut a couple of seasons ago. After a handful of appearances and loan spells in the lower divisions, Barkley’s really made the step up this season. Martinez started him in the 1st game of the season against Norwich and the midfielder duly obliged with a goal.

Barkley’s added further goals against Newcastle and Swansea to his tally. He’s been pretty much a constant in the team since and has played a crucial role in Everton’s eye catching style of football. He’s started 14 games in the campaign thus far and is now a genuine option for this summer’s World Cup.
Barkley represents the new Everton and given his tender age should go on to have a great career. Given his ability, it’s only a matter of time until he’s wanted by bigger clubs but for now he’s an Everton player and quite a good one at that.
