Harvey Barnes

[lgfualol]

Could possibly be the best player in the world 

[Molson Canadian]

I'm curious as to which tournament squad has the better ranked players for England right now.

 

The U-20 World Cup Squad that just made it into the finals or the Toulon Tournament Squad.  Both squads players are in the same age range.

The World Cup should have the better players but Toulon is U21 so the extra year is relevant. I expect there are players in Korea who would have been in Toulon

2nd goal is class . Kid looks a talent.

Top scorer in tournament!

Poor touch, keeper should have done better. 

[Max Power]

Looks a classy player based purely on the goals he's scored for MK and England. Moves smoothly, looks well balanced and strikes the ball nicely. 

 

Wonder what the plans are for him next season. Loans are risky imo.

That link claims he's joining Blackpool on loan, not a chance. I've been told the club class him as first team ready. It'll be an interesting preseason, he seems to take everything in his stride.

No chance he'd go to Blackpool. If he comes back to League 1 (unlikely) I'd be pretty damn sure it would be back to us for a full season with a recall built in (our manager has been speaking with your lot about him coming back).

 

But saying that, there's pretty much no chance he'll be back on loan to League 1. If he does go on loan, it will be to a reasonable Championship team that will be challenging (I'm thinking someone like Fulham or Reading).

 

Got a fair chance of being a key part of your first team though as well, and wouldn't be surprised if he gets 10-15+ Prem games next season.

 

Would love him back here, he seemed to enjoy it.

I know I'm just echoing what others have already said on here but we need to give this lad a chance with the first team this season. He is worth the risk. No point fannying about with loans

[AKCJ]

Bloody hell we've actually got an academy lad worth shouting about.

Chilwell isn't too bad either tbf

Cheap Sigurdsson alternative

Siggy is class and has been class for 3/4 seasons now, Barnes has played 1 first team game.

Rudkin will leave us with Barnes when he can't get Sigurdsson.

[fazzyfox]

For that goal he reminded me of Ross Barkley with the same kind of direct intent but without the excessive extra touches like a dog with a tennis ball in a park that Barkley can be guilty of.

[StevieB]

Hypothetical question: Your Craig Shakespear and have a choice of Andy King or Harvey Barnes, Who do you play?

For me Barnes all day long, he looks fast, intelligent and he's scoring for fun at a decent level, I hope we keep him next season

Chilwell, Gray, and Barnes in the same side the futures bright

We will get relegated if we sell Mahrez and replace him with Barnes.

He's got a good family around him, probably helps that his Dad was a professional footballer so he should be getting good advice.

 

I played with Paul Barnes at Hinckley when I was 18 and he was about 39 and coming to the end of his career - great guy, very professional and very down to Earth. If Harvey has a similar personality then he should at least have the right mentality to succeed.

My mate knows his dad through work and he says the same thing about his dad and he said Harvey is the same.

[AS78UK]

Keep saying it, but we need to start bringing these players through, with Ndidi, Barnes, Chillwell and Gray we could have the foundation of a premiership team for years ahead. 

 

Add to them Lawrence, Amartey and Kapuska..... and other youngsters such as Musake, Choudray, Moore and Nduku (can't spell any of them), the futures bright, the futures blue!

[foxes21]

I'd like to see him played behind the striker in pre-season.

[dominicmsb]

His finishing looks like his strength from all the clips I've seen. Hope he gets lots of minutes in the friendlies to see more.

[Stadt]

Carries the ball well despite seeming not particularly quick 

[lgfualol]

Get him in the team next season. Would be good behind Vardy if Rudkin ****s up and doesn't buy anyone.
