Why is this thread still around...why can't people see that every time we play a decent side, there's always their top players linked to us before the match in a bid to unsettle them so they're not that effective against us!
So, we beat the toon 3-0, Barton didn't play to his standards so lets move on!Nope, don't need anger management, you just need to stop pissing me off!

I'm being deadly serious.Originally posted by Alex View PostSeriously? Your winding us up? Non?
I've watched Barton for many a year, and he's always impressed me as a player - clearly a cunt and act i wouldn't want him at LFC, that's not the say i don't think he's a damn good player.
This is the first season i've had a proper look at Meireles and i'm far from convinced, said that before many a time.
If Barton wasn't such a scumbag and a loose cannon then i'd rather him in the Liverpool team than Meireles. We're a Premier League team afterall and i'm sure we all agree that Barton can hold his own in this League. Can we say the say about Meireles? I'm not so sure.
Look at the stats for the two players this season:
Barton
GAMES:32
GOALS:4
ASSISTS:9
SHOTS:59
Meireles
GAMES:33
GOALS:5
ASSISTS:5
SHOTS:62

There is nothing between them based on those stats, Barton has a goal less but 4 assists more. Meireles has played half the season out of position. Which was his first in English football.Originally posted by Rudo View PostI'm being deadly serious.

I yearn for the day where goals, assists and shots are the only important things to look at in terms of player analysisOriginally posted by Alex View PostThere is nothing between them based on those stats, Barton has a goal less but 4 assists more.

People's judgement are clouded because it's Joey Barton the thug, not Joey Barton the footballer.Originally posted by Alex View PostThere is nothing between them based on those stats, Barton has a goal less but 4 assists more.

Don't get me wrong i despise the cunt and think he's a very lucky boy to still be a pro footballer with some of the things he's done in the past, but as i said before, he's a good player.
Aggressive, tough tackler, excellent energy levels and he's more than capable with delivering a cross and getting a goal himself. All round a very talented midfielder imo.
As for this out of position lark, Barton having played most of his career at the heart of things in midfield has been pushed out to right mid and performed as well if not better out there. Andy Carroll and Kevin Nolan have got many of their goals from Barton's crosses.
