Joey Barton admits there are "one or two bad eggs" he would have thrown out of QPR by now as the club faces up to relegation.

Barton's QPR side could have their fate sealed today without kicking a ball, but are more likely to drop into the Championship by failing to beat Man City on Sunday.

Speaking to Sky Sports, the former Newcastle midfielder claimed:

There's a few people who need to have a good look at themselves. Whatever happens on Sunday and the next two games, you have to be able to look at yourself in the mirror and say I did everything I can. Some people haven't done that.

On the whole, the dressing room has turned up and given everything. One or two bad eggs have spoiled it. If it had been done my way, they would have been out of the building straight away.
