Joey Barton slammed for controversial remarks about Hasselbaink

Former Premier League star Joey Barton has been involved in a number of controversial rants on X, formerly known as Twitter, since being sacked as manager by Bristol Rovers in October.

In particular, he has made disparaging remarks regarding female pundits and women’s football in general.

After constantly going after women’s football, Barton has chosen a new target now.

Barton has now targeted Hasselbaink, former striker for Leeds and Chelsea and a member of Gareth Southgate’s coaching staff.

Following Brazil’s 1-0 victory over England, Barton posted on his X account:
