Should Joey Barton start at Rotherham and who should miss out/ who would make up your four-man midfield?

We have been crying out for a recognised central midfielder to partner David Jones ever since Dean Marney got injured last season.

I think Joey Barton should start against Rotherham. When he came on against Reading and Arfield moved out wide, everything clicked into place and it wasn’t a surprise to see Arfield with the assist for Darikwa’s goal.

My four-man midfield for the Rotherham game would be Arfield, Barton, Jones and Boyd which would see Kightly dropped to the bench.

After the Derby County game I would’ve started Joey against Reading and I think when he came on it gave not only the crowd but also Scott Arfield a lift playing out wide.

I’ve been impressed by Michael Kightly’s recent performances and I thought he was unlucky to be substituted last weekend so my midfield for tomorrow night would be Kightly, Barton, Jones and Arfield.

I don’t think George Boyd has been up to scratch so far this season so I would take him out of the starting 11 against Rotherham.
