Barkley stuns Chelsea with late u-turn
Lyndon Lloyd Thursday 31 August 2017 83 Comments [Jump to last]

Ross Barkley has turned down a move to Chelsea after a £35m fee had been agreed with Everton and his medical was already underway.
Sky Sports reported that the 23-year-old was set to complete a deadline-beating £30m move to Stamford Bridge but changed his mind before the deal could be completed.

Though there are conflicting accounts of whether the player actually started his medical, the general story was corroborated by the Blues' major shareholder, Farhad Moshiri, who told Sky that Barkley wanted to reconsider his position in January, by which time he should have recovered from a hamstring injury.



Seems a strange decision by Ross. Lot of conspiracy theory's circulating. Surely Chelsea would have given him more money than Spurs would have paid him salary wise. Maybe money isn't a factor at all who actually knows. He needs to be playing, it wont be as a ten if he stays at Everton there are three now ahead of him. Weird situation.

Brilliant form my point of view

And shafted the club that is renowned for always turning the first offer down - even better

Is that the same way as Gaza..........

Wayne Rooney arrested on suspicion of drink-driving

Everton striker Wayne Rooney has been arrested on suspicion of drink-driving, the BBC understands.

England's all-time record scorer was stopped by police near his home in Cheshire on Thursday night.

Rooney, 31, announced his international retirement last week, after 53 goals for his country in 119 appearances.

He rejoined his boyhood club Everton in the summer and scored in each of his opening two Premier League games.

Cheshire Police declined to comment and Everton has not responded to the BBC's request for a statement.

£300,000. a week for how long and no intelligence to get a taxi , dick .

He can afford to hire a driver. The intelligence is in his feet!! ROOONEY :0)

Daily Telegraph........

Stephen Hawking mission to find alien civilisation detects radio signals coming from dwarf galaxy.

Ronald Koeman to enquire do they have a centre forward and a left back for sale?

Apparently Rooney was overheard saying "Ronald said we need to wrack up as many points as possible, so i thought I'd steel a march on the rest, by bagging 6 whilst the rest are on international duty. People thought I was daft, but I didn't retire from international duty for nothing, who's the clever one now?"

Rooney drink driving....have to feel sorry for him.....it doesn't take much to be over the limit nowadays......most people can be over the limit and drive safely home but because of a few that can't : we now have these drink driving laws....that's the way it is...anyway seriously euhhh :....only thing is ....why was he driving a vw beetle ?....I mean...what was he thinking ? ....it's like being caught with your pants down...(streetwise cred that is).....jesus......I would have thought an Aston was more his mark....

Feel sorry for an overpaid Lardo who's got more money then sense, you are joking I assume.

Stan...don't be too harsh...he's one of England's all time greats !......
I reckon that when you pass your driving test ; there should be : how much can you drink test ? before becoming dangerous on the roads....that way...some of us can have dozens of pintz.....beforz..weez canotz drives anyz longerz....thatz woudz be faireuz four everbodees ....youz think yes.....notz badz ideaz.....(top gear should take up this idea)....

4-0 in Malta.
And so it should be.

Nah don't feel sorry for Rooney, Dick Head got caught. Great timing Wazza, as if the Ross Barclay fiasco, failing to sign a centre forward and left back was not embarassing enough for the Blues you plank.

"He's one of England's all time greats!"? Of don't make me laugh 😂

The word great seems to be one of the most overused words bandied around these days, but if you do want to use it how about Bobby Charlton?

Record books don't lie Stan. You may not like him but he can play football. He will do a good job at Everton.

Not a case of like CC so much as I don't think he commands respect.

Fraid i'm with Stan here . he's always been a total dick , feel sorry for him jeez .

Morning hils, you still a season ticket holder at Stamford Bridge? :0)
