Ross Barkley: 'Roberto Martinez lets me make mistakes'

By , Reporter
Ross Barkley is enjoying the trust of new Everton manager Roberto Martinez as he continues his run in the first team.

Everton midfielder Ross Barkley has praised manager Roberto Martinez for allowing him to make mistakes.

The 19-year-old has started four times for the Toffees this season having been in and around the first team for the past few seasons.

"Roberto gave me a lot of confidence when he first came in by telling me I was going to be involved this season," Barkley told The Guardian.

"Roberto is allowing me to make mistakes so I can learn from them. He's giving me information about where not to make mistakes and where I can afford to take risks, and I'm taking all of that on board.

"I'd say the new manager trusts me more, but David Moyes helped me a lot. I used to go into his office and he'd always be honest with me."

Barkley was involved as Everton came from behind to beat West Ham United 3-2 in the Premier League yesterday afternoon.
