Barton de ja vu 05:44 - Aug 28 with 5163 views | timcocking | "Barton was ineffective again, his main involvement being on the end of the terrible tackle that earned Killie teenager Taylor a red card just after the hour. The Englishman was anonymous. Wasteful in possession, passive as a defensive midfielder and a non-event going forward. Eventually he was replaced by Niko Kranjcar. He walked to the bench, shaking his head as he went. Rangers were level by then and it was deserved. Tavernier's free-kick was long range and magnificent. It was interesting hearing his friend, the former Rangers player Peter Lovenkrands, talking on BBC Radio Scotland of Tavernier's frustration at having lost free-kick taking duty to Barton this season. Tavernier has surely got his old job back again now." Sound familiar? | | | | |

That was more down to Dyche not indulging him like he has been everywhere else. | |

Warburton basically tried to buy the spine of one the most successful championship sides of past few years. Hill provides leadership in defence, Barton the midfield bite and energy and krancjar the creativity. Krancjar has lost a shed load of weight, got his fitness back and is injury free. He is playing really well. Barton has reverted to the idiot who played for us. Hill really should be playing as that is the weakness for rangers at the moment. | |

Burnley are defo missing him IMHO. | | | |
Barton de ja vu on 10:39 - Aug 28 with 3804 views | Watford_Ranger | Get him to do what he's good at, as Dyche did, and he's very good at it. Let him do what he thinks he's good at and he's ineffective. Quite simple really and something our managers couldn't grasp or enforce. Burnley Barton would walk into our team.

The man's a fool, thinks he knows best. Dyche managed him superbly, and understood perfectly that, having taken all the plaudits last year, barton and his ego would be unmanagable this season. Credit to Dyche. | | | |

I think he said Burnley were the best group of individuals/team he'd played with. That and the chance to play in the Prem again make me think that he wasn't given a contract or was at least told that he wouldn't be playing much. | | | |

No, he was offered one, but he chose to go and play Scottish football for more money. Also sounds familiar. Burnley can't have been that bothered about keeping their supposed Lord and saviour, awash with Premier League cash but didn't want to match Rangers' offer. I think Dyche had him exactly right, Championship player useful when given a very specific job. Not good enough for the Prem, nor disciplined enough to stick to that basic job amidst the extra exposure. | | | |
Barton de ja vu on 16:12 - Aug 28 with 3330 views | CroydonCaptJack | I've got a mate who is a Burnley fan and he said he was excellent last season. I suspect Douche knew he wouldn't be as good in the Prem and I've no doubt he demanded too much money having won that award. If he knew his limitations he could be decent enough but he doesn't unfortunately. | | | |

Yeah, and look how he repaid them for showing faith after spouting all that guff last season. [Post edited 28 Aug 2016 16:30]

Niko always looks good in August. Heard that weight story before. Total waste of space - he'll tail off by the end of September, like he always does. | |

Kranjcar has done nothing other than a couple of his long raking passes and is being slated by most and including Rangers fans, as too is Hill tbh though he is struggling with Warburton only having one way of playing. I think we're lucky to have 'missed' out on him as he can't seem to change his team pattern at all, both fullbacks play high up the pitch and leave the centre backs exposed if the sitting midfielder doesnt do the covering work. Clint of course has no pace and he's been exposed with this a few times, he's getting bad reviews after most games but at the moment Warburton is escaping any mainstream criticism. Barton has played around the edges but hasn't done a great deal though can't say he has played poorly either but knowing him he'll start taking over the centre of the park and try doing everything which in turn slows it all up and becomes a sideways game. Great!! | | | |

Barton de ja vu on 18:53 - Aug 28 with 3093 views | PlanetHonneywood | Got off a plane in Glasgow Friday morning and caught site of a picture on the back page of a newspape; Joey Pirlo being sent skywards by a young pup and the ball so long gone, it was probably on the next page. I don't like egregious violence in sport however, that being said, I chuckled the chuckle of someone nae fussed at all and if anything, I rather enjoyed it truth be told. | |
