Osman: Barkley hasn't kicked on since he was 18
Former Everton midfielder Leon Osman says his old team-mate Ross Barkley needs to step-up and stop making mistakes.
This comes after recent criticism of the current Everton midfielder, who has also been left out of Gareth Southgate's England squad.
Osman told 5 live Sport: "He's been playing in the first-team since he was 17-18. That's a long time to have been playing in the Premier League and not kicked on, and not made that next step. It's worrying that he's still being talked about as a young player and 'give him time’.”
