In this photograph, Ross Barkley of Everton Football Club is seen in full flight during a pre-season friendly match against Partick Thistle at Firhill Stadium during the 2012-13 season. The young midfielder, then just 19 years old, was making a name for himself in the Everton first team, having already made his debut in the Premier League the previous year. Barkley's electric pace and dynamic energy were on full display in this encounter, as he charged forward with the ball at his feet, leaving Thistle defenders in his wake. His technical ability, vision, and creativity were also evident, as he threaded passes through the opposition's defense and created chances for his teammates. The pre-season friendly matches provided an opportunity for players to fine-tune their skills and build fitness ahead of the new campaign. For Barkley, these games were particularly important as he looked to establish himself as a regular starter for Everton. His impressive performances during the pre-season earned him the confidence of manager David Moyes, and he went on to make 33 appearances in all competitions that season, scoring six goals and providing six assists. Craig Halkett's photograph captures the excitement and anticipation of a young player on the rise, determined to make an impact on the biggest stage. The image is a testament to Barkley's talent, hard work, and dedication, and serves as a reminder of his promising future with Everton Football Club.
