At the risk of sounding argumentative (and I don't want to pick a fight with anyone) ...

"The talent is there"
- No, it isn't, and there isn't even a decent imitation of talent, either.

"barton is the box to box player we need "
- He's crap in his own box, crap in the opposition's box, and crap everywhere in between.

Apart from having no pace or talent apart from occasional 'enthusiasm', he's clearly a dangerous nutter. If he mentioned Everton, I imagine it's on the off-chance that we're desperate and skint enough to be interested in him. Hopefully, we're not.
 
I'm getting quoted and told off even more than expected.

I retract my statement.

NO, I DONT WANT HIM NEAR THIS FOOTBALL CLUB.
 
Should move for Poulsen from Juve - they've just forked out 20m+ for Melo, so presumably, he'd be available...
 

It'd be like signing Nugent, but Nugent also being public enemy number 1 scumbag who would destroy team morale.
 
Fuk the talent . This is a dog . End of fukn story .
Plus , Anthony's Ma is now our race-relations , or whatever the current terminolgy is , representative . Thus , it's a non-starter . Thank fuk . The worst example of a scouser with a few quid .
 

Come and get me davey:

Newcastle
midfielder Joey Barton wants to stay at St James[COLOR=#0464D1 ! important][COLOR=#0464D1 ! important][COLOR=#0464D1 ! important][/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR]' Park and help the Magpies recover their place in the Premier League this season, according to a report from Sky Sports News.

However, there is one scenario that apparently would make the player re-consider that plan, and that is if Everton made an offer for his services.

Barton, born and bred on Merseyside, was a Toffees fan as a boy, and an offer from the club he supported could seriously "test his resolve" to remain at the Toon, according to Sky.

There has been no indication that Everton are interested in the player, whose troubled past littered with disciplinary indiscretions, criminal offences and a prison sentence makes clubs somewhat wary of him, despite his undoubted talent. A rumour of an end of season dressing room bust-up with then-Magpies manager Alan Shearer added to the reputation for trouble he carries with him.

That reputation would also be somewhat at odds with the ethos at Everton, where manager David Moyes has established success based on discipline, loyalty and team work, which would seem to make a potential offer for Barton extremely unlikely.
 
Can't see this happening. Barton is a nutcase. Let's sign Cana and Elm instead (I hope btw Cana has kept his hair short, I saw some clip with him where he had a Robbie Savage-style going and that's not a good look).
