Barry is a victim of his own style like Yaya. The converse is De Jong and Silva who are herelded mainly for their style.
In terms of actual statistical effect Barry has made more tackles, won more headers and made more interceptions than his stylish counterpart. Similarly Toure has assisted a similar amount and scored more in the league than Silva. Now I'm not going to suggest that this tells the whole story because I agree we look more fluid with Silva in the side and arguably more solid with De Jong in the side. Alls I'm trying to say is without the stats most people would say De Jong made more tackles/interceptions and Silva had more total assists/goals, but it isn't the case so maybe some of your other perceptions are wrong.
