Once again he was away with Spain during the week and scored against Italy. Being away every 2/3 weeks for games or training camps really isn't helping him get a run of games for us
Yeah and it's a promising sign that even when he comes on he's having a decent impact as he did again today. Here's his goal if you haven't seen it
I think a lot of it is just him getting used to the pace and physicality of English football and a very different system than he played previously, from what I've seen of him he looks at his best in a midfield 3 but we don't tend to play that way so he has been used out wide quite a bit so far just to help him get used to the pace of the game. I'd like to see him playing as a proper cm because I think he'd have the ability to beat the press that most teams try to play against us but with Garner, Galbraith, Traore and Levitt all needing games in cm playing from the wings as Barlow has done quite a bit might be his best chance of getting game time at the moment.
