For a start Fabregas is nearly 30 and was signed by Mourinho, not Conte. Barkley is 23 and needs to be at a club where he will play virtually every game in order to kick on, not be a rotation option.
Barkley should stay at Everton if that's the case, because he won't be an automatic starter for any of the top 6.
Plus he probably, and rightly so has enough confidence in his ability to think that he can force his way into a bigger team.
