Everton boss Roberto Martinez is happy with the praise of Roy Hodgson raining down on Ross Barkley.
The England coach has likened the youngster to Paul Gascoigne this week.
"We spoke a lot about Ross," said Martinez. "He is very unique footballer and will draw those comparisons. He can bring memories of many different footballers. It is a phenomenal compliment to him for someone to say they see parts of Paul Gascoigne in Ross.
"I mentioned Michael Ballack last season but, ultimately, Ross Barkley is himself. The young players need understanding at this point in their careers. They need guidance and support of the older players, but he is a great talent."
