And a Barkley that isn't faced with the massed ranks that City have to contend with every week.
 
I'm reluctant to take too much from that because there's no way in hell that Puncheon or Redmond are better players than Sterling.
But that single stat doesn't mean they are better players does it? You have to put the stat into context - for example how many creative players they have competing to create chances etc. Sterling has Silva, KdB and Sane also looking to create chances, Barkley has...Mirallas if he gets on maybe, Coleman when he gets forward? It's no real surprise that most of Everton's creativity flows through Barkley.
 
would be quite excited about barkley if we got him, not entirely sure why

Problem with Barkley is consistency because on form he is easily one of the best midfielders in the country.

Some of his passes in the last month or so have been outstanding.

he's still so young so that's not surprising

Ok. The stat simply showed who created more chances. Not who is better. But when a player creates chances at a rate that much higher than all the others, its hard to argue he is not a good player... Barkley clearly is playing well this season. Its hard to deny that.

In fairness he isn't that inconsistent. As far as CMs go, he has been quite consistent with his passing.
