Best midfielder we've got by miles, can't see any logic at all in selling him. Fair enough he might not be number 1 candidate for best mate material but who gives a fuck if he's performing on the pitch. And as for starting on Enrique the useless lazy bastard deserved it, and it shows that at least Barton shows some passion.
I wouldnt sell Barton - he is head & shoulders better than our other CM's And in Enrique's defence - I wouldnt put all my effort in when the manager comes out every week saying he isnt good enough & they want rid of him. A manager should back his players thru thick & thin, not put them down every time we miss out on buying a new left back Kinnear is clueless, coming out & blaming Fat Sam & Keegan for the state of the squad, saying that the squad depth should have been addressed then. Both Fat Sam & Keegan complained that the squad wasnt big enough I think our problems quite clearly go higher than the manager
I think while he has been injured he has witnessed how fucking appaling Enrique is and just wanted to have a go at him cos lets face it he is shite and were shite, regardless of if it was on the pitch or not "The Spanish Bull / Turkey" deserved it. I didnt even know Barton was back to be honest but its well needed him coming back into the frame...
Outa some signings of late : Guttierez is a good player with plenty of energy and box to box BUT his final ball lets him down. Collocini needs to grow some balls, i thought Taylor was bad as well... Bassong is a decent player, id rather play him that Taylor but now cos of how bad Bo Selecta is playing maybe Taylor should go back in. Enrique is total horse shit, id sell him asap. Beye again i rate and always have, he cant play on crutches or plaster tho.
Nothing, he got snapped off Cattermole against Wigan, in the same way Joey Barton did and both ended up injured following appalling tackles.
