You’ll be surprised to learn where Ross Barkley reckons his best position is

Out on the left? Deep in midfield? In the hole?

Nope, according to the Everton midf player, his best position is as a striker. Speaking to the magazine show Premier League World, Barkley said that he operates best up front, with more freedom to look for and take chances. “I’m a striker,” he said. “I feel I can have my greatest impact there because I’m free to roam around the pitch, take players on, have shots and create chances.” Barkley has played in a variety of different positions this season for Everton, and the England international hasn't been pleased with an inconsistent season. “From my point of view I haven’t done as well as I know I can, but things like this happen,” Barkley said. “You have to go through bad days to get to the great days you have in your career. “Everything’s a learning curve." With Everton's season really petering out, could we see Barkley given a run up to before the end of May?
