Not been on here for a while yet come on and see a Barry thread and its like I've never been away.
Barry is nothing more than an average player being made to look better than he is because he's playing in a top side. All the top teams have at least one player like this, the rags have had plenty over the years o'shea, evans, park etc etc! We've got a few players like that and Barry is certainly one of them.
Someone posted about him being picked regularly for Villa, City and England - Well that's game, set and match because Villa have been nothing short of sensational over the past decade and we all know how amazing the National side is.
For those in the minority who can actually see Barry for what he is fear not and remember this, City fans voted that lump of turd Richard Dunne POTY for 4 seasons, they said he was the best CB in the country and could play in any of the top 4. The minority said he was useless and a walking calamity. Dunne went for a pittance and yet not a single top team was interested. He has since struggled to hold down a regular place in a average Villa side.
Barry has had his best season in a city shirt but it comes as no surprise that his dip in form has coincided with the absence of Yaya who has carried him! Fear not Yaya will return soon enough and hopefully he can carry Barry through to the end of the season. Which given the size of Barrys arse is no small achievement in itself!
