Anderson Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Caulkin says that there will be a "quite positive" update on Barton's contract situation in tomorrows papers (from today's Pardew press conference). Surely the only positive thing is that it's signed? Anything else just adds to the delay. Pardew's gone and bought got some pens on loan from WH Smith so Barton can sign the contract. I think he might have just nicked one from the Post Office upstairs actually. I'm not ITK or anything, but I've been told they were actually taken from Argos.

Guest Recoba Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Exactly. The bulk of the £35 million will go on wages, not transfer fees. A five year, £40K per week contract costs over £10 million. We will be lucky to spend £15 million on transfer fees this summer, on two to four players.

taxfree Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Basically Barton says: Disappointing to lose a player of his calibre. Fantastic player, but also a good friend. Will be in contact for the rest of our lifes. Think he'll do well in Liverpool. Wish him all the luck in the world. And as our other scouser...: "Fantastic move for Carroll" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oakie Doke Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 If he doesn't even make the provisional squad then I think the message is clear: he's never going to get recalled. Probably because he had the nerve to question the FA's little darling Frank Lampard last time he was in the squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 If he doesn't make the squad, he only has himself to blame. There's long-standing concern about whether he'll affect team spirit, and all his talk about how no-one's playing better than him isn't helping. It's like he wants to remain the victim.

Chris_R Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Now Carroll's not here anymore, I'd question the wisdom of persisting with Barton on the right wing. It worked with Carroll up front as Barton had someone who was phenomenal in the air to aim at. Maybe it's not such a good idea now, and he'll start to look much less effective. That said, not sure what options we've got to replace him. We've got no players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
