Interesting.....

Quite an honest admission from Barton there. A change from his massive ego I suppose. tbh England could do a lot worse than Barton on the right wing. As much as I like the bloke, don't think he's really England material now. Last season aye when he was on form but this season, from what I gather Barton's form has been indifferent.

Nice, good to see the lad training with the first team

Pretty unsure about putting Jonas at left back/wing back. The only way I can see him playing there is when we're left with no choice....

I feel the same.

Wow Hope you actually won the argument wormy!

The lack of cutting edge for Wigan this season has cost them. Without a player like N'Zogbia, it was always going to be difficult like.

nice one Barack!

Good.

Ha, indeed.

Sure he is Kenny ha.

What a gutter for the lad.

Looks like it. Quotes from Pardew in the Chronicle says the lad is still struggling to be fit.

Ah don't be saying that

I reckon he'll sign a new contract in the end.

Had a look around the club shop yesterday, yeah the 96 one looked a bit meh. Having said that I'll probably buy one. The 94/95 one was great though.

Looks like he's using the Sir Alex-Rooney-is-injured technique.

Sounded like a great experience

Yep.

I can see the merit in starting Best (strength and hold play which could prove useful against Vidic, also works his arse off) but really Ben Arfa is a better option in terms of his attacking play/skills and vision. If Hatem can match/better his display against City in the Man U game, he'll more than likely give Man U's defence a tough time. Might even score.

Righto.
