IMO Barry will play the exact same role as he did last year. Whether people agree with that or want to lose him is up to them for me, "he iz a very important player" to quote Bert.

inconclusion to get the best from yaya barry should play. as for the dickhead who said silva johnston and NDJ in midfield, you clearly dont know a fucking thing about football

My brother and I purposefully just watched Gareth Barry to see what he did and what he contributes ...... it really was an eye opener.
He closes down all over the pitch, he covers for Kolarov on several occasions, he presses Ferdinand / Van der Sar into making the mistake that led to the goal, he wins tackles and seemingly, is always available for a pass.
Sure, he isn't the fastest, doesn't score many goals and isn't that creative in the final third .... we have other players that do that very well. Every David Silva needs a Gareth Barry ...... that's why we have a decent team now instead of a midfield packed of Irelands, Elanos, Petrovs etc who couldn't do any of the above that Barry does so well.
Always worthy of a shirt IMO.

Fuck me I dont know what Mancini sees in him. Slow passing gone to shit and slows down the play way too much. I think it will be a huge mistake if we dont look for another central player if Nasri doesnt come. I dont know but looking even at what is at the club in the central area I am hoping that Barry will be used in the Vieria role next season. The less we see of him in the starting team the better I hope Milner is given a chance in the centre midfield this season and if M Johnson sticks around and is fit I would hope he is battling it out with Milner for a place in the team.
