QPR's Barton unsure about Ibrahimovic comparison

QPR midfielder Joey Barton is keen to avoid comparisons with another bad-boy recently moved to France, Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Marseille signing Barton was asked his opinion of the PSG striker.

"We are two very different players. He is very clever, very big, with a lot of confidence inside him. Others might say arrogance. But he remains confident. He's made a good start. But for me, the opposition will especially come from midfield.

"He shall be my enemy on the day."
