Keefaz Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Barton has rarely earned his wage, he's starting to now and long may it continue. This. Clearly this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ross magoo Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 I thought he was fucking majestic today. Whether he can hold it together until the end of the season without his head bursting again we'll just have to wait and see but more performances like today and no front page headlines = everybody's happy.

Incognito Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Joey Barton showed such class today that Gareth Barry could only dream of showing.Didn't give the ball away all day,best player on the park IMO. :clap: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 First time since we signed him I wouldn't want to sell him. Loving this Barton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Was he good enough for Wullie to praise him though? Best game in black and white for me, I thought he was superb. Some of his long range passes were unbelievable. Much prefer him in a slightly wider role as Tiote and Nolan are much better at keeping possession which is my main problem with him.

David28 Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 In pure football terms the best player we've got - anyone with a pair of eyes could see that. Some of the posts on this thread early doors this season BTW Er, he'd been largely total horseshit prior to West Ham. That's rubbish, man. He was mainly brilliant up until the Stoke game. This. Can't believe how bad some people are talking about Barton. Whenever he's been on the pitch for us he was a very good player for us - of course he won't be able to produce a performance like he did yesterday all the time, but every player has a poor game here and there. And even if he had a poor game he still often wasn't worse than the rest of our midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ObiChrisKenobi Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 People slam him for losing possession with his passing, but he's the only one in the team who thinks of any creative balls played in behind the defence, or with angles out to the flanks. He's been trying it all season, and obviously some games it pays off more than others. What they don't mention is the amount of ground he covers, and has started to fill the role of linking all the other players together, which is something we've lacked for a while. He's always available off the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayson Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 On his day hes really brilliant, the abilities been there the whole time. Needs to find that consistancy & sense of drive he had yesterday always because it took him to another level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Think it's no coincidence that our worst display this season came when him and Tiote had their worst performances of the season. Technically him on the right shouldn't work but somehow it does. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically him on the right shouldn't work but somehow it does. I still think it made us a bit too narrow yesterday, but to be fair he had probably been allowed to tuck in to counter Sunderland's extra man in midifeld.

biggs Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Best game for the Toon by a long shot slowly but surely looking like he belongs in the shirt ,clearly enjoying his football and as long as he can keep his temper at bay during our bad patches that will come along .He is a clever ,intelligent lad who is repaying the majoritys faith in him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PRL Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Nice little stat from F365 today: Joey Barton has created 20 chances for teammates this season - the same as Mikel Arteta and more than Ashley Young and Andrey Arshavin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
