No, Joey speak Franglaise, which only he can understand. Since when did we introduce rules on this site, Oslo, that posters cannot speculate? It was my best guess - and I made that plain. I'm not making a racist point, if that's what irritated you. Taarabt has not approached this season with any enthusiasm and there's every chance he's decided to take the money and do the least for it, as repayment for the fact that QPR vetoed his deal with the Italians. In turn, this would irritate the hell out of his teammates. As for Traore, I don't know, but he and Adel are tight. He could be someone Joey was suggesting. Whether it's justified in his case is another matter.
I'd like to see joey and Clint as part of the management/coaching team as well as being in the squad. I'm guessing we'll see a lot of the youngsters next season so it will be necessary to have a couple of leaders still on board.
Good words Barton and agree he gives 100% every game He could lead us without doubt but I think at best the championship has always been his idea place
As I said at the time, Joey getting sent off (AGAIN) was the turning point in our season, he is partly to blame. An influential player missing for 3 games is no good to any team. If you ain't part of the solution, you're part of the problem!
Joey is one of the few players whose season can be consired as a positive one. If he agrees to new contract (presumably and hopefully no moore than 30-40 000 £/week) for us he would be excellent captain for us in the championship.
Agree but despite that I agree with majority that should be kept if possible and IF he is up for the battle to try and get back.
He's shown more effort than the rest of our squad but I feel our club would be better off without him. He should move on. He's not a Ranger.
Ozzie, sometimes I wonder whether you got knocked down by a snow plough & banged your nut at some point up there in Lapland. Ramsey referring to Barton's comments: "There are people who could have helped us who haven't helped us. I don't want to expand on that but we can over a coffee after this if you want" Now, can you name me one single player you think he's more likely to be referring to than Taraabt and do so with a straight face?
If we are handing out £30-40k contracts in the Championship we are not solving the problem we are exacerbating it. Every player coming for that sort of money will be like all the others we've signed under TF...
joey always gives 100% of his ability he has to how many of his wayward passes caused trouble for the rest of the team
How can us being relegated be Adel's fault? He has hardly played. He shoud have gone ages ago for his and our good, but too convenient a scapegoat, an easy target, to cover up everyone else's shortcomings. We lost 6-0 to City because Adel wasn't on the coach? And if he and other(s) were such a problem, it's just weak management that they weren't dealt with. Omnishambles.
Think you've answered your own question there mate (Obviously he wasn't only at fault but shares the blame along with many others)
It took me a long (very long) time to come around to your way of thinking about Taraabt Swords but I wish the guy ill now. Prize prick. Worse than SWP.
