Joey Barton (now retired)


Recommended Posts

Is it going too far to suggest Barton will never play for England again thanks to this? I don't particularly mean the incident itself, I mean that he's probably been playing better than ever and was close to being called up as he has been since he won his cap. He's blown it for good now IMO.

As long as he's playing well enough to warrant a call up but isn't getting one due to his reputation it can only be better for us :D

 

Just need Carroll to glass a few more people and we're sorted...

1 down, 2 to go.

 

Really missed him against Fulham, like. Odd to think how important he is to the way we play now, really links everything together.

Had a few people PM and ask for the Joey/Dexter mash-up wallpaper, so I'm just posting it here for anyone else that might want it.

We missed him on Saturday, gonna miss his other two exclusions- Twice the player of Danny Guthrie.

 

And yet the set pieces were to a higher standard on Saturday :shifty:

 

And yet we didn't score from one, unlike the previous 3 games.

Guthrie's freekick hit the wall iirc

corners were slightly better, free kicks slightly worse.

Oh no! Might as well rip up his contract now

Guthries deliveries from corners has always been better than Bartons. Barton is better at delivering crosses from free kicks, and neither of them are good enough at scoring directly from a free kick.

 

:sadnod:

 

Think R.Taylor is good at it though.

 

For me it's:

 

Best at corners - Guthrie

Best at distance free kicks - Barton

Best at close free kicks - R.Taylor

Where's the knobheeds who reckon Guthrie should start ahead of Barton on a regular basis?

 

Guthrie was an absolute non entity today, he should have been hooked at half time. I'm convinced Guthrie is a very very average player.
