The guy cant win with some on here....at least he has some passion
for the club,unlike some that come to mind.

Hope he stays and will be a great asset next season.

Best player on the pitch until he was sent off!!!!!!!

[Ginger Ninja]

Totally agree

[MattyRangers]

Spot on.

[Gilligan]

I think we shouldn't be too hard on him. He got sent off in a big game - it has happened before to other teams and will happen again.

He will be distraught and everyone will be having a go at him. He is not as good as thinks he is but he is a good player who has helped keep us up. Whenever the FA let him play again I will be supporting him.

[Deadend_Friend]

Way too much of a liability and he's not a good enough player to be worth it. How he behaved today was embarressing to the club. I hope he leaves in the summer

[W12hoops]

To be fair, after he was shown the red card (which infact should have been shown to Tevez too) he just tried to take a city player with him - which is the least thing you can do when sent off in those kind of circumstances.
And after he was subbed against liverpool, he, Clint and Djibril have played the key roles in our survival.

What some seem to ignore time after time, is that if the appropriate action is taken when he is the subject of various assaults, he would not feel the need to retaliate.

Won't be getting a word of criticism from me.

Thought he was outstanding today, tevez hit barton first!

spot on...great passion and aggression

[theblackmafia.]

just wish he hit the deck first then all would have been different.

[superhoop67]

if you are gonna do some one do 'em good , should of done Bellotelli on the to the changing rooms , it's a mans game

[swede]

He played well but almost cost us our place in the PL....and it wasn`t the first time he did something like that. Has played ok in the last couple of games, but we can get someone better...and mentally saner.
