    I know what they have offered. I'm suggesting that the parties might agree a compromise, by splitting the difference between them.

    Sorry if I didn't make myself clear.

    Gareth Barry
    Steven Gerrard
    Fat Frank Lampard
    Owen Hargreaves
    Joe Cole
    Steve McManaman
    Jamie Redknapp
    Darren Anderton

    Might be quicker if I just said any midfielder capped by England since 1996.

    Don't forget Alan Smith! Can't see anyone suggesting giving him any contract and he's only 30.

    Fact is midfielders tend to peak in their twenties, anything after that is a bonus. Frankly if the length of the contract is the only stumbling block then Barton clearly believes this to be true, otherwise at the end of this alleged 2 year deal if he was still playing to a decent standard he'd be offered a new one anyway.

    Oops forgot about Smugger. <doh>

    Must have assumed he'd died in one of his trademark first-minute-reckless-challenges.

    Would love to see JB get a contract and pity club and him couldnt meet in the middle to get a deal that suited both parties.

    For **** sake selling him to a team that are in the same area of the table. Honest I'm so ****ing sick of the way Ashley runs the club and this is exactly the sort of thing that makes me so negative.

    Why? It hasnt happened. Barton will reject any moves away this summer to force the boards hand in contract talks or let them lose their initial investment.
