Joey Barton has been warned that he must 'calm down' if he is to avoid spending much of his time at Marseille in the stands.
No fear
Marseille, though, have no intention of asking Barton to change his ways.
Club chairman Vincent Labrune said: "I have no fears about him.
"He is a very good player and you will see that he actually made fewer tackles than many people would have expected."
Barton has already figured in UEFA Europa League action for Marseille, but will be cleared to make his Ligue 1 bow on 17th November at Bordeaux.
