Swap deal in the offing...
@Joey7Barton Do you want rechange your seat with me ? #QPR #OM
From @StephaneMbia on Twitter:Stephane Mbia fancies swapping places with Joey Barton in the summer, with the midfielders forming a part exchange deal earlier this season which saw Mbia joining QPR and Joey Barton going to Marseille on loan.
And here's Joey's response...
@StephaneMbia if you go down with a team. You should stay and help them up mate. They need you all to stick together an help them back. #QPR
From @Joey7Barton on Twitter:But it's ok - Mbia was just kidding.
@Joey7Barton just a joke ;) #qpr #OM
From @StephaneMbia on Twitter:Barton eyes touchline
Yes, for those of you asking I will almost certainly manage when I stop playing. Reckon I've got about 8/9 years left at the top!
From @Joey7Barton on Twitter:Fernandes expects Barton return
– QPR owner Tony Fernandes speaking to their official websiteMarseille have got to put an offer in. Joey is under contract and Joey would be a very useful player for Queens Park Rangers.
He helped Newcastle out (of the Championship). Some would say we lacked his fighting spirit in the midfield.
But if Joey and Marseille want (the transfer), then we will talk.
However, he is a QPR player, and is contracted to QPR.
That has to be a financial deal which would have to be worked out if he wants to go to Marseille, but as far as I am concerned he is a QPR player and in the summer will come back."
Cisse on potential Marseille return
– QPR forward Djibril CisseIt would be a dream to go back, or play for any club which can make me shine.
I have Les Bleus in my heart.
If I'm in a good team and if I do a good job I think it's possible.
I have a crazy mind and when I have a goal in mind I do everything to achieve it.
