- Chelsea fans criticise Ross Barkley after poor showing vs. Crystal Palace.
- Barkley scored three goals and provided two assists during October.
- WATCH: Alvaro Morata gives Chelsea the lead over Palace at the Bridge
Chelsea fans singled out Ross Barkley for criticism following his first-half performance against Crystal Palace.
Barkley was one of the best players in the Premier League throughout the month of October. He scored three goals and provided two assists for his teammates.
Barkley also forced his way back in the England squad. He was part of the Three Lions’ victory over Spain, which will go down in the country’s history. However, he’s not been at the races today.
The former Everton man will have been hoping to kick-on from his recent form, but he hasn’t been able to do so during the first-half against Palace.
He’s been unusually wasteful in possession – and Chelsea fans are not impressed. Many have taken to Twitter through the first-half to criticise Barkley, despite the fact that the Blues have the lead. Let’s hope he can put in a better performance during the second period.
Barkley picking up exactly in the opposite place of where he left off

Barkley has been pretty poor so far, his lack of technical ability really apparent when he’s forced into playing in tight areas. RLC would be much more suited to this type of game. #CFC #CHECRY

Barkley awful 1st half.
Come on mate get your act together.— losriley (@losriley) November 4, 2018

He is not a forward.
People were expecting to see … Willian tricks from Barkley.
It’s not his position.
