I think Barkley is a genuine talent...but he needs time to hone his skills and is still learning. As is Chamberlain who many on here were saying would have a breakthrough / POTS campaign.

Barkley isn't half the player Ramsey is.
Ramsey is an exceptional talent. He'd be a starter for any team in this league.
NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
I'd say Barkley and Ox were pretty much analogous, both head down dribblers who don't contribute enough defensively.
Barkley has the advantage of playing every week as a central attacking midfielder - parachute Ox into that exact situation and I suspect he would outshine Barkley by some distance.
