Now I have really heard it all......... Funny thing is, you believe it. Barkley is nearly 25 (December). At that age, Lampard was on the verge of becoming one of the best midfielders in the world. Lampard had world class around him and stood out. Gerrard didn't and stood out. What's Barkley's excuse? Don't want to put the lad down, but he's achieved nothing of note yet and you're trying to compare him to Lampard. Potential means ****. My 8 year old has potential. Jordi Cruyf also came from 'footballing royalty'. Most of the Brazilians and Argentinian legends come from 'rough backgrounds'. You're talking ****e
Stan your latest comment is verbal diarhhea, to even think that Barkley is in the same class as Frank Lampard is totally unacceptable for a sane person. I have defended you in the past but you have gone too far this time. You do not have a clue. Adios amigo.
