I'm not even going into detail about the level of sh*t your chatting bur Kevin Nolan (the guy who stands next to Barton)has been better than him this season. So best englishman is crazy talk when hes not even been best in his position at mighty Newcastle.
Nah mate i've watched nearly all the games and Barton has been their best player, most Newcastle fans would subscribe to this view. He has been the creative hub of their side, although Nolan has got more goals, Barton has got them ticking, him and Tiote have been their best players so far imo, and no English midfielder has come close to Bartons level of performance.
What English players have performed better than Barton then, since you exhibit such dismay over my comment?
I can only think of Ferdinand(who has been injured during early parts of this season, Carroll(?), Hart(?), who else help me out i'm struggling here.
