Joey Barton is a man of opinions.

Whether it was during his time as a footballer or in his current role as manager of Fleetwood Town, Barton loves to say things; things which are usually fairly controversial. Barton has had opinions on a variety of issues throughout the years, but a cursory search through Twitter illustrates just how much of his thoughts are occupied by one person in particular: Neymar.

Presumably unimpressed with Neymar's performance against Liverpool in the Champions League, Barton tweeted little more than the player's name, accompanied by an emoji of a man shrugging and a smiley face wearing a monocle. We're going to give Barton the benefit of the doubt though and assume he thought it was a magnifying glass. https://twitter.com/Joey7Barton/status/1042150136594481152 Liverpool went on to win the game 3-2 and Neymar was pretty anonymous.
