Good.

[Rebel R's]

Yes because we are doing great without him

good

He's only played in a couple of matches (one of which I think he got into a punch-up) so give it time.

I love "I don't play for the money." perhaps he should come back and play for free.

[qblockoompah]

One thing for sure, he doesnt go down without a fight, nobody can deny that

[Factamondo]

joey would show more heart in five minutes than most of hughes' dross signings have!

[qblockoompah]

He has got more heart in his comb over than Bosingwa could ever dream of

[jpsuperhooper]

At least he has the passion and wore the badge with some pride. Bosingwa, Traore and a few others could learn a lot

[acricketer]

I think we need someone with passion in the side. After all, we might find ourselves one day in a 'must win' game 1-0 down fighting for our lives.

Bring him back and let's put some bite in the team.

[QPRDave]

BAD

[qprjim]

Bring him back and let's put some bite in the team.

You mean the same bite he showed up at man city? Or the bite he showed in the interview when he branded us a tinpot club?

So he can lose his rag, get sent off and get us relegated?
