Had to laugh at Derek McGovern's column.
"Joey Barton is 3 - 1 favourite on skybet to join Aston Villa. It's 1 - 500 that he doesn't start a fight on John Carew"
Reading are one of them clubs. They play well as a team, but you wouldn't really want any of their players as individuals. (Apart from Sidwell)
Now Newcastle have a few players worth having, just a question of availability....
I've seen Barnes play quite a few times this season and he's been awful.
Plenty of skill and pace, but he flatters to deceive.
Only 18 though, plenty of time for his skills to be honed.
