Queens Park Rangers midfielder Joey Barton has backed Fabio Capello to be appointed the next manager of Tottenham Hotspur.
The Premier League outfit are in the market for a new boss following their decision to part company with Andre Villas-Boas earlier today.
"AVB had to go really. 6-0/5-0 against rivals after spending £100m+ in the last window. Reckon they'll go for Capello now," he wrote on Twitter.
Former England boss Capello is among the early favourites with the bookmakers to fill the void.
