Think Oviedo might be on way out and Song is brought in on the money we get. Barry to act as a back up left sided defender of Galloway gets injured .. We go with s 3 at the back with Song and McCarthy in the middle of the park Far fetched I know !!

Yes, this is a proper mental conspiracy theory.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I've plenty of mates back in Kyiv and none of them have heard or read anything about these rumours. I know a few Dynamo ST holders who are glued to the usual social media channels and so they tend to pick up on things early, but they've not spotted anything. Furthermore, a fair few of them are Blues (courtesy of yours truly) and would want him to come to us perhaps more than anywhere else, so,it's not as if they're against the idea.

If they tip me the wink I'll pass it on in here immediately.

first thing anyone usually knows though mate is when the players announced as leaving, really is a case in eastern europe of the owners deciding everything themselves, not quite the circle of thousands over at prem clubs

Just don't think Barry needs to go. He needs to go when he's past it, but he's been very good so far this season and for the last 10 or so games of last season.

He had a woeful period of form but that ended long ago. I think the problem is that once the perception of a player changes, people become too lazy to re-evaluate it.

Haha well thanks for the respect afforded to my opinion. Oh yea ... He's been immense all those no look passes against Watford, that went to no one. Don't act like you're the only one watching the games with due diligence.

Could you explain to me why you felt he was "fantastic"?

Barry doesn't need to go. He needs to be dropped sometimes, but not sold.

This. I think it's too easy to say everyone played well when the team does.

Did everything you expect a defensive midfielder to do. And did it fantastically.

Barry can be brilliant as long as he is used in the right games - he doesn't need to play at home against the likes of Watford (unless we're trying to hold onto a lead), but away from home he can be invaluable.

What respect did I not afford? I fundamentally disagree with the notion that Barry needs to go (now).

Gareth Barry can't melt steel beams.

short story.....

Went over to Kiev to watch the blues, great trip except the score ov corse. It was that game that Yarmelenko dry bummed us. And how do i know that....

Because i watched the reply when i got home, was to busy getting ran round the ground by Kiev ultras as i was that pissed i sat in there end like a mong. So when Lukaku scored to make it 1-1 i jumped up and the benny hill chase started then....like a massive game of hido!!

Moral of the story is.....dont drink Ukrainian 8% beer all day then go the game.

Also...he'd be a boss buy!!
