rodders0223 Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Caulker is on at least 40k a week so won't be coming here. He is also a sunday league player.... also he has the best agent in the world so will be joining Real Madrid, probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry needs a quicker more agile midfielder next to him like Gana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted May 5, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted May 5, 2016 Joey Barton was on Talksport yesterday. Sounded very undecided about next season. Said Burnley offered him a 1 year extension 6 or 7 weeks ago but he hadn't signed it yet. Said playing was more important than money for him. Might be bollocks, but certainly sounded like there was a chance he'd be available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'd prefer Gary ONeill as an experienced head in midfield if we needed one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, Barton may well be a decent Championship player, but he's a monumental knob and as crap as we are I wouldn't want to be associated with him in any way 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, but with the proviso that they try hard on the pitch. If they're a word removed off it, I'll get over it, but they have to try in training and on the pitch, that's exactly what we don't have now.

I can understand that, and a couple of seasons ago I'd agree. But I think he's matured a lot. And having watched him a few times for Burnley this season we'd be lucky to have someone with his ability in our midfield next season. He's been excellent.

He still puts in horrendous challenges (including stamping on someone fairly recently, can't remember who) and still posts shit on Twitter acting like he's better than everyone else. The guy is a **** clown and I don't want him anywhere near Villa. I'd rather we brought back McLeish as manager. Honestly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looked up the stamp incident - it was against Brighton. After the incident he took to Twitter (of course): " Remember folks it's a contact sport. This is not crown green bowls.lots of love JB x" SO MATURE. WHAT A GUY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly. Agreed. He's a classic scumbag who wasn't raised properly and loves attention. Only interested in himself and his own sense of self importance. If we signed him I'd be hoping he got a Luc Nilis-esque injury on his debut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
