When Chelsea signed Ross Barkley in the January transfer window, it was not a signing that a lot of fans were in favor off. After barely getting any minutes under Antonio Conte, most people wrote off the 24-year old. However, Barkley's life has turned for the better under Maurizio Sarri.

The former Everton midfielder scored a brilliant goal from outside the box and assisted two against Burnley. In the last three games, Barkley has three goals and three assists to show for including the late equalizer against Manchester United. In this period Barkley also earned a comeback to the England side and produced a terrific performance against Spain.

He is well and truly a man revitalized and hitting the same heights he hit in his initial years for Everton. It also looks like Chelsea have finally found an outlet of goals from midfield, something they have lacked since Frank Lampard's departure. Having signed him for only a fee £15 million, Barkley could turn to be a great bargain at Stamford Bridge.
