I just don't understand how Barton is a public figure.

No, but it is very interesting non the less.

Yeah sorry. I'm not listening.

Went off on a tangent.

He is saying in the Mail online that Rooney hasn't progressed since leaving Everton. Think he could be right ?

Not quite. He didn't reach his potential though IMO.

I'd agree. He's still obviously boss but not the British Messi we all hoped for.

Yes mate of the same opinion, watched him from when he was 13years old and although he has done o k he seems to have stuttered for the last season or so.

Exactly.

Wayne never became the player his early promise hinted at.

Barton trolling the world again

Slightly out of context!

But will be the Daily Mail headline.

Like a footballing version of Russell Brand isn't he?

Hmmm.

In a way maybe.

But also quite different.

Russell Brand has been at the top of his profession. Sold out stand up tours, Hollywood movies and prime time TV.

Joey Barton is about as good at football as the likes of Robbie Savage.

I just don't get it.

But I do enjoy it when he goes off on one. For the wrong reasons though I guess.
