Stifler Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Barton in the PL again, man. There's a guy who's squeezed every drop from his talent. Has he had a good full season since Man City? Is he not out of contract again? I thought he only signed a 1 year deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A CM pairing of Barton and Colback, shoot me now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Snrub Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 He was Burnley's player of the year so I'm sure there will be an extra year added on to it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superior Acuña Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Think it was a one year deal but he was (apparently considered) one of their players of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaizero Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 I have watched four or five Burnley matches this season and in those, Barton was the best player on the pitch by a country mile. Which, to be fair, is more telling of the general quality in the Championship more so than Barton's general ability. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozy Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Always liked Barton, not afraid to speak his mind and what he says is generally on point. He's become a better player since that season playing right midfield for us as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc4eva Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 He's 34 this year you f***ing idiots. He was s*** in his prime. Don't want him back but we need experience down there and a few over 30s wouldn't be the worst thing if on a year deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 He's a massive gobshite. Don't really trust a mans genuineness when you grow a pencil tache and put on an accent because you're in France. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Wasn't the only reason he left something to do with the contract length we offered compared to what QPR did? (similar with West Ham and Nolan iirc) Couldn't have hated Llambias, Ashley, etc. that much. Just knew how to play to his audience to make up for being a waste of space for 3 and a half years.

Which, to be fair, is more telling of the general quality in the Championship more so than Barton's general ability. Did you watch him vs QPR? Because that's the only one I saw him in and he was god-awful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altamullan Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Heard his full interview on the radio. He made some persuasive points, around the sense of personal and collective responsibility in a core of the squad he was previously relegated with. How it was this coupled with the determination to 'make good' which got them back. How he didn't see enough of this in current squad, how they wouldn't bounce straight back without it. He they needed to get shot of everyone who isn't up for the fight. He also sees Charnley as a good guy, with his heart in the right place. Doesn't have a problem with Ashley. Describes Llambias as the devil incarnate. Is another pro/ITK who rates Jack Colback. I agree about needing men who are up for a fight and think Barton had (too much of) this, I wouldn't want him back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilikenewcastle Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Can't believe how many fans think this guy is some sort of legend. Was as culpable as any player when we went down, and did bugger all to get us back up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree about needing men who are up for a fight and think Barton had (too much of) this, I wouldn't want him back. Just a reminder that Joey Barton was injured for the vast majority of our last Championship season. He played in the first few games then vanished with an injury until near the end of the season when we were almost already promoted. He played in fewer games than Fabrice Pancrate. If there was a determination amongst the players to make good and get back into the Premiership it had fuck all to do with him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 But he probably shouted really loudly at people like Martins & Beye after the Leyton Orient friendly. Legend man, the radgy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
