Perfectly put. Eg Paul scholes
Perfectly put. Eg Paul scholesYes but Barton is nowhere near good enough quality wise to consider himself above doing the hard work as Taarabt was at QPR in the championship. CM is a position where you need to work hard regardless of quality anyway
Other than the goal scored he looks awful. Stu mentioning Thornton is interesting as Barton is similar but Thornton had more natural talent.
4 against Sunderland then 1 against forest in the semi. Surely they weren't his only goals??
funny how mind plays tricks with you,
Cant believe Livingstone only scored 5 goals for us !!
Barton is our best player from what I've seen. Good tekkers on the ball and can score from range. Just because he doesn't run round like a mad chicken doesn't mean he is no good it's just his style of play.
Did you only go to Bury and Birmingham games?

Where were the others?He didnt. He got 4 in 1 game.
He has talent ,he was thrown in at the start of the season before being match fit with no pre-season ,and should have scored two quality goals but for the woodwork at Yeovil. His lack of
fitness cost us two goals both identical in build up down the opposiitions left flank against SU and Bury,not only that but cost the manager his job.His form naturally will have declined as the
guy who allegedly brought him here was removed .Would he have been playing if Conor Thomas had'nt been crocked by Deegan?Its all subjective and subtle is'nt it,Should we have been
recruiting that late in the window if we wer'nt in Embargo?
And thats what i am saying sSu ,Should he really have started the season ,while so blatently unprepared .And was also at fault for Crewe's goal (Leich-Smith went past him with ease on the edge of the block) and both of Stevenages (losing the ball in midfield for the first and slack marking from the corner for the second),.
I'm not saying he is shit, just that he doesn't deserve his place in the side on current performances. He's actually getting off quite lightly, if he was called David Bell the lynch mob would be waiting for him...

True ,but losing Deegan and Thomas were a double whammy ,one precluding the other ,although Deegan looked like he would have to go ,it came late in the window.Completely agree, thorn fucked up and only brought in two recognised central midfielder (plus Kilbane the utility), when we lost clingan, Norwood, deegan and Bigi. And then lost Thomas to injury. Interesting that Robins has brought in two midfielders.
