On the other hand he is the first hairy-headed bald bloke so I don't know what to believe anymore.

Everton Lock-Up, sometimes referenced by one of its nicknames such as Prince Rupert's Tower or Prince Rupert's Castle is al ock-up located on Everton Brow in Everton, Liverpool. The 18th-century structure is one of two Georgian lock-ups that still survive in Liverpool. It is famous for being the centre-piece of the crest of Everton F.C.[1][2]

The Grade II-listed building, which was opened in 1787, was originally an overnight holding place where local drunks and criminals were taken by parish constables.

Coutinho, Coutinho's link up with firmino is majestic. I like to see Barkley being direct though and in an england shirt. Same with Deli Ali, love to see him competing for england.

Coutinho certainly has more potential, but he also manages to look at times like one of those naturally gifted players who never fulfilled all their potential. He's a bit inconsistent. Has a wonderful skill set, but in some games looks like he doesn't put it all to use.

As for Barkley, I'm still not sure how to rate him. Watching him last season, I thought he lacked football intelligence, he wasn't making the right choices, didn't play the right passes or get into dangerous areas. But this season it's looking like he's found that decisiveness and confidence to be a more dangerous player.

I'd still rate Coutinho higher right now, but it's a verdict that's not set in stone yet.

Obviously Barkley, coz he's used to getting a lot of stick.

Cou is just back, he'll pummel old Barkley into the ground once he's up and running again.

Another bump after a decent start from both teams. This was perhaps worth a debate back when I made the thread and poll, but I don't think there is any doubt any more, is there?

On a side note, have a quick read of Smudge's comments on Barkley in the Bournemouth matchday thread. Scathing.

Coutinho or Barkley? Hahaha. That's one of the silliest questions I think anyone could possibly ask. Barkley has talent but Coutinho is on a completely different level.

He should be allowed back. He might have been a pain in the arse but was a laugh some of the time. It would be worth letting him back just for the flat earth thread.

His ban finishes at the end of the month I believe unless something has changed. Dunno whether he'll come back after it though.

If he can come back at the end of the month it's a suspension and not a ban. Seems a long time for one, not seen him in months.

Telling it like it is since 2003. Anyway, Coutinho has taken strides Barkley hasn't come near matching. Back when the question was asked it was fair, though.
