Joey Barton has railed against 'cancel culture' ruining football in a bizarre social media rant.
Speaking after Sevilla's Europa League final victory on penalties against Jose Mourinho's Roma on Wednesday evening, Barton criticised the gamesmanship on show during the match.
The clash was fractious throughout, with Mourinho insisting he and his players 'can never lose our dignity' despite the Portuguese waiting for referee Anthony Taylor in the car park to tell him he's a 'f***ing disgrace' after the final whistle.
And Barton took to Twitter to claim VAR and issues in society has made the sport a game of 'f**nies vs f**nies'.
