Ketsbaia Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Barton on Sky: "I have not made a final decision just yet, but speaking to the club, they have got big ambitions and I had to come down and hear what they have got to say and go through the formalities of the medical side of it just in case any deal does happen." He blatantly isn't sold on QPR, don't know whether to feel sorry for him or not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In theory he could wait until Wednesday to decide on the deal, leaving us no replacement. MA would be delighted with this! We won't be signing any replacements anyway.

Baggio Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 So much for only leaving for a top side, Joey. Not too bothered he's off, he's a decent player but not good enough to make up for the complete liability he is, add to that he's had one good season for us in the 4 years he's been here and that the majority of his assists came from dead balls that Cabaye will now take anyway then you're left with a player that is just not worth the hassle. If Pardew is happy with Marveaux and Obertan on the right then put Barton's wages towards signing a new right back. if pardew's happy with marveuax and obertan on the right he's a bloody idiot How much have you seen of Marveaux to come to the conclusion he wouldn't be good enough to replace Barton in the starting 11? none, his injury record over rules any form Yet he's played more games than Barton since he signed for us in 2007, which makes your logic terrible.

Sounds to me that he's desperately waiting for that phone call from the c***s from above/Pardew offering him a new contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Her next question should be - If he's so good, how come he's ending up at QPR? The answer will probably be, what would you choose if your options were a) QPR b) f*** all? At which point she will say, why are QPR the only club that want him?

Novocastrian Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 I don't think it's because he desperately wants to stay with us; he wants a longterm Nolanesque deal and knows he won't get it here. I think he is getting twitchy because he was expecting QPR's interest to kick start interest from other, bigger, teams #wishfulthinking Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marveuax clearly has muscle problems, hamstring, groin etc You're completely changing your stance here after I've pointed out Marveaux's appearances have been better than Barton's, he was on the bench vs Sunderland too btw. The fact is both have had injury problems over the last few years so your point about one replacing the other because of his injury record is void, so it then comes down to ability and you've admitted you've seen nothing of him to pass judgement on him as a player, in fact looking at it like that I'm not even sure you have a point at all.

ExiledGeordie Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 All seems a bit tragic really that he's going to end up at QPR. His character issues on the pitch/twitter carry on his ruined chances of going to "one of the bigger" clubs thats for certain. I love watching him play for NUFC but he's a total self publicist with his twitter carry on creating constant drama and often find myself thinking "just shut up and get on with playing football". That said I like the way he'll come on the radio and talk to pundits, fans alike. I don't however like the way he's positioned himself as some kind of club legend when in fact if you break it down most of his career here has been spent on the injury bench, in jail or general controversy. Certainly a proper mixed bag of a player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
