David28 Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 He'll hopefully push Butt down the pecking order, but not likely. I think it is likely. Hughton does not seem to rate Butt as high as many other managers we've had here. Today he had to play him as Smith was out. But once Barton returns I expect a centre midfield of him with Smith.

Guest Alan Shearer 9 Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 The fuck would that solve? It'd solve Butt's fitness problem. ie he's fit every fucking week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 He'd be out there in an yellow wheelchair with 'captain' painted on the side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayson Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Looking foward to him playing again, far more useful than Butt anyhow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liam Liam Liam O Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Needs to get fit, if only to put some pressure on all of our midfield, which seems to pick itself regardless of the performances of those in it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sicko2ndbest Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 To get out this division I would honestly play, when all fit: back 5 Guthrie Barton smith Jonas Nolan Ameobi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 I don't think Nolan has the discipline to play sweeper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 I don't think Nolan has the discipline to play sweeper. I doubt even Hughton is daft enough to play a sweeper in front of the midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuyP Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 People need to realise, if Barton is fit he wont be seen as competition to Butt by Hughton, but as competition for Guthrie on right wing...waste of creativity man Hughton! :-[ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayson Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 I think Barton/Guthrie were both on the wings for the Cardiff/blackpool games thinking about it Bit ridiculous Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be, but tbf, would you risk dropping a 10league goal midfielder (by xmas)? Smudger is in top form this season so looks to have nailed the spot, but hands down he is better than Butt...sad thing is, id say he is one of the better wingers we have productivity wise. Him and Guthrie are similar, tthough id say we'd be better playing Barton in order to up his potential sell-on value, much like Geremi... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
