NOT A MAN who is ever afraid to voice a controversial opinion, Joey Barton has once again come up with a somewhat provocative view.

Barton compares the England star unfavourably to his former teammate Cristiano Ronaldo, saying that while Ronaldo has fulfilled his early promise, Rooney has failed to do so.
