Yeh he did, for losing the plot on the pitch and not exposing himself to various dangers of a night club.. He can go if he does spend his time off like this, the lad is stalling... He will end Hull maybe Sunderland by 26.
He was on a night out - in a bar not known or renowned for loads of trouble by all accounts - the night after a game.
Fgs.
It used to be common for the entire team to be out in the pub an hour after the final whistle.
Ridiculous.
Naive of him to get himself into that situation? Absolutely.
Should it make him think twice about going out in town on a busy night like that? Yeh, probably.
Was he in the wrong to go out? Absolutely not.
We don't know why the scrap broke out, or what was said or what the reasons were. But Barkley wasn't exactly stumbling about and it's six days before the next game.
He turned up for training/recovery this morning so clearly wasn't getting hammered beyond recognition.
