I watched Ross Barkley the other week and I felt sorry for him because he was clearly drilled to play the ball sideways.I want Ross having a go at people and playing with purpose and trying to hurt the opposition.“He wasnt doing that against Southampton because he was so conscious of just keeping the ball.
