Exclusive - Barton: ‘England squad is not picked on form – or I’d be in it!’

[72bus]

he needs to shut up and play football, i still remember him getting the arsenal lad sent off. he couldnt lace scott parker or jack wiltshires boots

[silvercue]

he has tweeted for ages that he should be in England squad. He picked himself in current best British 11 recently.

I think it is fine to be cocky, but not when you are playing badly.

However, I think he is just doing it for the attention tbh.

There's nothing wrong with a player having confidence! I think we should be happy to have players at QPR who can say they should be in the England squad with a straight face. Most of what he says in the article makes a lot of sense.
