Completely different to our other youth options and with the bonus of being able to buy low and sell high if it comes to it. Still seems like a no brainer to me...

If we really want to compete in 4 competitions we need greater strength in depth. Barkley is still you at 23 and he has much potential which Poch can help to bring out. If the price is right we should sign him.

At the same time we don't want to block the progress of our youngsters so anyone in the senior squad deemed not good enough should be let go.

No.

But Koeman being sacked might affect the prospects of us signing Ross Barkley.

Dembele isn't playing much games these days and Sissoko I suspect won't be there next year if Barkley comes in so I don't see how he'd affect anything.

I really think Winks could be really special, I see a lot of Modric in him, Barkley would be a good addition might give Ali some competition.

Winks and Onomah have a very high ceiling, i think Barkley is better suited as a more attacking
player.

I think Barkley would be a good signing, if the price is not rediculas.

Is that a Latin word?o_O

If we don't take him for whatever reason and he goes elsewhere, in all likelihood to strengthen our closest rivals. If he does move, he's going to a top 6 club
