No, I said Barnes was nearing his peak. He is. Ulloa is at his. Suggest you read more carefully.

Indeed, but it's bang on.

I'm going to say it. Barnes is an average Championship striker. He's old enough to be nearing his peak. Some on here would have you believe he is the new messiah. In fact, he is the second or third best striker at the club. On top of that, his petulance last season was shocking, although...

Fair enough. Although failing to point out Barnes missed most of the games he missed last season because he was (rather than is, hopefully) far too petulant.
