Gareth Barry - 100k a week

the world has gone mad

city are gonna £#%&! it up for everyone aren't they. Just like when the transfer market was finally calming down before roman turned up.

We're doomed

i take it that's what's priced the dippers out of this deal??

the transfer fee is only £11M apparently!?

he must have bought into the citeh dream

Christ on a bike.

Worth every penny of it.

I don't rate him at all.

a decent midfielder

about fletchers level.

definately worth 11m and is dependable.

And some, Barry is a failed LB and CB turned into an average midfielder who takes penalties.

in your opinion. fletcher has had what one decent season and two average ones.

lets not paint fletcher as if he is the best midfielder in the world.

barry has been decent for a while now, regardless of what position he converted from (scholes is a failed striker)

he had a very good game at ot this season as well.



i personally think there isnt much between the two.

you've got admire barry. leaving a decent club which are showing signs of getting into the top 5 within the next 3-4 years to go to the beverly hillbillies.

Where does it say he gets £100k a week, other than here?

figure I plucked out of the air earlier

As long as none of the 'A-Listers' buy into the 'Project' then Football will keep it's dignity.
I thought Barry wanted to leave Villa for Champions League Football??


Incidentally, when are the Fixtures out?..I'm bored to £#%&! already.

Good buy for a club at City's level.

if city buy a few decent players i can see them comfortably in the 2nd tier of clubs (5th-7th and about 8 points off arsenal)

if wenger had any sense he would sign barry slip him in his fabregas but the professor wont buy english :rolleyes

Right, because saying he's better than Gareth Barry clearly would put him in the "world's best" category.



Some reading comprehension courses would do you a world of good IMO.

not but to say fletcher is on a different level to him is just wrong.

barry is a decent player captaining the 5th best team in our league and a full international.

him and fletcher are at about the same level in terms of ability etc.

maybe for 100k a week he'll learn to kick with his right foot.

he makes stuart pearce look like zidane.
