    yea i'm here Jimmy, no need to get on your high horse about this, we all know he has been poor but today was another level. 55 percept pass success is just embarrassing for a prem midfielder

      Again . Does it time and time again , can't make simple 5 yard ####ing passes that a child could make . Thinks he's ####ing david beckham . Drop him immediately , we've been far worse since his return . Isn't even half the player some perceive him to be

        Henry is actually better for me . How barton has robbed a living in that position for over a decade astounds me . He is s hit

          Can't argue with that, Harry knows, that's why he is looking at Diarra.

            Not even that, he probably could but chooses to play a god awful and impossible 25 yard one to god knows who instead. Wants to look better than help the team and that is wrong as captain.

              People may slate me for this but the sort of player we need is a Tom Carroll. Someone who knows how to move the ball like him will do wonders for us. He usually plays solid forward passes that keep us ticking and would do wonders in a team like this.

                Didn't he provide a cross for Austin that Jedinak only just cleared over his own bar before him and didn't he set over a corner that Caulker had deflected off the line?

                Oh, hold on we only remember the negatives.

                For me he was 50/50 today.

                  Carroll never played a single forward pass in any game he played for us.

                    I personally am referring to his entire period with us, as I have continued said, Barton is about Barton, very, very,poor mans Wantabe Beckham.

                        I understand what you are saying, Sandro and Diarra would be job done!

                          Actually got all the visuals up on my screen saying that he actually played more forward passes than backward passes for us

                            If, statistically speaking, he's did, he played no telling pass or any other pass that was any good or of any use. The quality of any pass isn't captured by any statistic.

                              that is beyond the point, my recommendation of him was that he knows how to do the simple passes well, something none of our current centre mids can do pass-wise
