I know he can be a bit of a ******** but with QPR almost certainly down, and with him at the tail of his career, he might like the idea of staying London based for another year with us, albeit on a reduced wage. A John Eustace style player perfectly suited to the PL and with younger, more creative players around him to save his legs.
ran the game at the vic the year they went up and now on a free. would still expect qpr to offer more wage than us even in the championship. and then you have to consider team spirit!
That is an insult to John Eustace. Barton has a terrible attitude and is a thoroughly nasty person having been charged with violent conduct three times by the footbsll league. Not the sort of player that should be anywhere near our club.
Exactly - i can never forgive his billy big bollox stance on us when at Man City when he thought us **** on his shoe - he can **** off
He was in the press in the week criticising some QPR players for not caring enough. He was a **** end earlier in his career, but I actually think he could be a positive influence in the dressing room at the age he is now. Also rate him as a player. Wages would probably be high coming from QPR though.
I expect he'll put out a statement saying "I will wish to remain loyal to QPR & their fans and help them with their promotion push next season" Which is of course agent-speak for "No idiot is going to match the wages I'm already on, so DO ONE!!"
I want 11 players on the pitch who'll fight tooth and nail for the team and to win. But I don't want a philistine at the club who will openly assault a player to try to provoke a reaction and get someone sent off. No thanks!
You mean the Alex Song with two years left on a contract at Barcelona? Don't think he'll be signing for us.
1. It would be nice to at least attempt to finish a match next season with 11 men 2. He has a stupid beard and hairstyle 3. Therefore it's a 'no' from me
QPR = Quite Pathetically Relegated. Don't think there's any of their players i'd like here. Possibly Phillips at a push but don't know where he'd fit in.
I mean the Alex Song who Barca have farmed out on season-long loans, who wants to stay in London, and who is currently available for another loan spell!
