Gareth Barry

[spacecadet]

Gareth's problem is he isn't homegrown- if he was he wouldnt get half the shit. Our two under achieving players today were both out of the academy but you're not allowed to criticise them on here- and you can add Ireland as well. They are fukkin fireproof to the masses.

I totally agree, won every tackle, didn't give ball away, ok, he didn't score but looked like he is getting back to his best. A point, he did not deserve the Boos from the crowd.

i thought some of the treatment he got from the press/ papers, and fans in general during the world cup and the aftermath was disgraceful, the guy worked his arse off to get fit enough to even go to the tournament, he should have even been there, and he got fuckin slated for his trouble

Barry>>>>De Jong


Goals
Barry: 2
De Jong: 0

Assists
Barry: 7
De Jong: 0

Chances Created
Barry:45
De Jong:13

Successful Passes
Barry: 1346
De Jong: 1163

Ok so these stats show clearly that Gareth Barry is a much more technically gifted player. But we knew that already, surely NDJ will win comfortably on the defensive side of the game? But that is not the case:

Tackles won
Barry: 91
De Jong: 69

Tackles Lost
Barry: 22
De Jong: 27

Fouls Conceded
Barry: 64
De Jong: 44

Yellow Cards
Barry: 4
De Jong: 7

These last two stats, show that Barry is clearly the far more canny footballer, as he breaks up play (concedes a foul) far more ofter than De Jong but also far more subtly so he doesn't receive a yellow card.

Fouls Won
Barry: 56
De Jong: 44

You can not argue with these stats, they clearly show Gareth Barry is far better at breaking up the play than NDJ. And with that being true, in what way is NDJ better than Barry?? None whatsoever
