Gareth Barry

[efcfanwirral]

Didn't spot that he'd finally got that booking. Excellent

Martinez now blaming tiredness. He's played a 34-year old 3 times in 6 days.

I'm sorry to report guys (and I was duped as well), but Booby is a snake oil salesman

Actually thought he was playing well at the start of the season but he looks so lethargic and his presence saps the passing urgency. We should not have Barry and Gibson playing together, they must be paired with Besic or McCarthy or even Barkley.
Still think the best game Barkley played was against QPR when he was a central Midfielder where he can get plenty of the ball so is involved more.

Anyone else a bit disappointed in McCarthy since he returned?

Mcarthy I think is still feeling an injury

I would go gay again for a hybrid of his chin, Bainsey's hair and Bobby's voice.

Slows us all down just with the basic fact he does not use his right foot. Might have looked good for City. Even did well for us when the whole team was on a roll. Now he is a waste of space. Not one of my faves.

As I've said before, I'm disappointed but not surprised when Gareth Yellowcard receives another Barry.

Yes he does not look fit - when he gets a shooting opportunity his legs go like Jelly - did he use to score for Wigan ?
Just one goal for us in 18 months v Hull away!

Barry's form last season earned him a contract, he just hasn't started paying it back yet.

stones apart we have been disappointed in most players returning, no one player will turn this mess around, its become obvious the bigger problem lies beyond one individuals performance

Zidane in his prime would struggle with the zombie tiki taka we are currently playing.

He's been crap. I remember plenty billing him as our saviour before he returned as well.
