Pardew said he will pick the team today so im guessing the lads know. Barton seemed to be in a fairly chirpy mood after training. Im putting two and two togther and saying he's playing Will give everyone a massive lift if he does.
Think people forget this.
He's s***, undeniably terrible at this level and essentially leaves us with 10 men when he plays. However, he has contributed towards this club a lot more than many who have came in for bigger fees and earned more money. Would have easily been our top scorer in the promotion season if he'd had a proper pre-season.
