Gareth Barry

[mkrudden]

Played well last night. Change in style for the team and supprise supprise he was more like the barry from last season.

Martinez has an awful lot to answer for this season!!

Finally, a bit of sense.

He was the one last night who actually started to get Lukaku involved once the big fella started to make some decent runs into the channels.

a solid game from gaz baz last night after an iffy opening 20 mins

Barry for me last night was hit and miss. He is the player who second guesses himself far too often for my liking and it shown in the first half following the pass pass pass instructions the ball never went forward with him. When we were going direct he was the one looking on getting it forward more than anyone else and whether the pass was good or not it was going in the right direction.

I personally still dont think he is better than besic now or better passing it forward than gibson but if he is going to be picked then seeing him look to create chances and not retain possession is the way to go.

 

[By god I'm blue]

He gave the ball away so cheaply in the first 30 minutes on numerous occasions. Then as the teams confidence grew, surprise, surprise he got better!

Think he needs a rest Sunday, get Gibson in and let's have some fresh legs and some sexy through balls for Lukaku.

 

[Rook]

I remember 1-2 mistakes but I thought he played well. He looks to me to be a better player when he gets some rest.

 

[Saint Domingo]

He's a decent orchestrator when the rest of the team is flying and we're on the front foot like we were second half. When we're under pressure he's still for me the worst player in the team except for Howard.

 

[Kendall's Dream]

Is he suspended for Thursday or Sunday? Seen people say different things

 

[kithnou]

suspend him forever someone....

Is he suspended for Thursday or Sunday? Seen people say different things

Pretty sure it's just Sunday mate ( 2 match league ban for receiving 8 million yellows on the spin )

 

[tadpole]

Last 3 home league wins - West Ham, QPR, Newcastle - all games that Barry missed.
