Warrington Dan said:I thought Barkley had a great first half but in the second half I thought he was too selfish as he wanted to impress too much. Some tricks/ runs were great but some shot went nearer to the corner flag. If Barkley chose to pass rather then shoot a few more times I think Everton would of created some better chances.
Although to be fair we could of played until Christmas and not scored.

pass to who though? beckford went through a stage of giving 8 balls away in a row ( probs a record) cahill has the technical abilty of slappy the sea lion, osman was poor, arteta was to deep, fellaini was playing upfront saha isnt fit, neville is awfull, so barkley tried to create things himself ( rightly so) him baines and distin were the only players wernt pathetic, maybe howard who had nothing to do.
HOWIE8 said:Ifind the well ok constructive critisism of Barkley out of order. He's 17, playing alonside yesterday, players who offered him nothing whatsoever. If he was 28 he would have done exactly the same. It had nothing to do with being selfish or trying to impress. He was trying to make something happen, and trying to get us back in the game, no one else was.

Howard - 6 He had nothing to do really and he didn't stand a chance for the goalNeville - 6 Got down the wing well and did a good job defensivelyJagielka - 6 did some good tackles but gave the ball away at timesDistin - 8 Man of the match for me and he looks our fittest player and he's so quickBaines - 7 provided some amazing crossesRodwell - 5 he had times were he looked good but he flashed in and out the gameOsman - 7 good on the ballSheitinga - 4 won a few decent headers in the middle of the park but he didn't win the ball and once again ran around aimlesslyBarkley - 6.5 he did some great tricks and had some decent shots but he had too many shots and I think he wanted it too much. Remember Barkley you have team mates and the fans already like you stop trying to do too much!Cahill - 7 determined to score, could of won a pen and created chances but wasted a lot of them but he wasn't the only one.Beckford - 6 did a lot more running off the ball but failed to work Paddy KennySubsFellaini - 6 held the ball up well and brought others into the game. Wrong for the fans to boo this substitutionsArteta - 5.5 never got on the ball enough but over time him and Baines could look like a good partnershipSaha - 3 I think he lost the ball almost every time he got it. But Moyes said he only came back to full training two days ago.To sum up - QPR got the first goal and then they parked the bus and slowed the game as much as they could. We didn't look like we were capable of breaking through QPR once they got the goal. But I believe if we got the first goal then we could of won 4 or 5 nil. Sh|t happens I guess.I think if Yakubu got a run of games then he will get goals. I suggest we play him but Moyes doesn't like him because he doesn't run about enough. I personally couldn't care less as long as he was getting the goals.
Warrington Dan said:Oops, Osman is meant to be a 6. Typo. I'll fix that now.
Distin was solid and Cahill had a hard game and could of won a penalty. Knowing Everton we'd of missed it anyway lol.
Barkley's first half performances could of been a 7.5 or even an 8 but his second half wasn't the best.
Please people don't get carried away with the kid and put pressure on him. I think that has happened to Rodders because it's been a while since he had a great performance.
Warrington Dan said:we had our chances and wasted them all. Sh|t happens now we need to move on the next game.
Bring back the Yak!
Warrington Dan said:He'd score one or two great goals a season and go missing for the rest of the season lol
