  • Im a neutral and I was gutted when he went to city as he's one of my favourite players. He's an honest, hard working skilful Englishman. But city is a joke of a club, I'd love to see him somewhere like tottenham or Liverpool

  • Traitor!

  • such a shame, Villa legend

  • simply the best midfielder in england after gerrard and lampard

  • Music please

  • Wow, some really bitter people on here. Granted he was skinned but as we all know the guy had been out with an injury for the best part of 2 months and then was expected to play 3 games in under 2 weeks. If you only remember that one incident then you're obviously not used to watching football week in week out. Poor comments. Barry is a class act both for club and country.

  • Absolutely shit at the international level. I honestly think I am quicker than him. Fucking average. When will these blinkered club fans realise most of the Premiership 'stars' are actually massively overrated. Legend my arse. His gravestone will carry a picture of him getting skinned for pace in that 4-1 loss. No one gives two shits what he has done at club level.

  • Not good enough to wear the England shirt.

  • Total wanker got skinned the weekend..Ultimate cart horse..Should never put a England shirt on again.

  • better luck next time barry no champs league for u for another season , up the sprus!!!! lol

  • I agree with Norwegian check out my Barry tribute

  • Gareth Barry has done SOOO much for Villa!! One of Englands best players for a decade!! SO WHAT if he wants to try something new?? He DESERVE it!! Good luck Gareth, i know you`ll come back to us!!

  • I'm don't totally agree with you vanpersie01. It's obvious that money is what rules in worldfootball and mainly in Europe. But in the Premier League you have players like Steven Gerrard who's proud to have stayed in Liverpool for all his carreer.. He's an example of fidelity for the rest of the players in Europe. But not only Gerrard! Look at Puyol in Barcelona, Raul in Madrid.. and many others.

    But yeah, money, money, money :s:s

  • gerrard pretty much agreed to go to chelsea a few years ago but decided against the decision for his family, because he was getting death threats

  • don't be so sad villa fans! he just left you for a bigger club it happens all the time

  • Left for a bigger club? How about Liverpool? Barry left for money!

  • no he left for a bigger club get over it

  • "Get over it"? I did not even want Barry to Liverpool... a great player, he really is, but he left for money

  • @KoRnguy93

    How about liverpool...hahaha...Will see you in the championship next season..wankers can't respect another club..!!

    CTID!!!

  • every player in the premiership is looking for money they dont care if they stab their fans in the back cuz every player is just a gold diggr yes milf fuckker

  • Rafa Benitez even said he made an attempt to sign him, he wouldn't have turned that down a year ago, it's all about money lets face it. "Manchester City-New Rulers Of World Football" will be hitting the headlines next

  • good luck barry i hope you made the right decisoion to go to city. you should have stayed at villa WE MADE YOU your heart will always be at villa barry... but good luck at city .

  • You should not underestimate Manchester City. If Man. City are continuing to buy good players, I am sure Man. City  will reach at the top of Premier League.

  • Maybe, but they aren't making any progress by just paying ridiculous prices for world class players. It all matters on how they work together as a team.

  • You are so right.

  • haha mid table club, well we will see in a couple of seasons wen were challengin for the title mate

  • Judas.

  • what an absolute idiot... Could've come to play CL football at liverpool or stayed at villa fightin for the 4th spot as a captain and one of the crowd's favs... Both options were good for the lad... But the idiot chose the money. Well, good luck in the fight for the 6th place with Man Shitty. They could spend all the money in the world for all I care but they'll still be a mid-table club...

  • WHERES YOUR BARRY GONE? LOL

    scum

  • gareth barry is blue army!!

  • 12 years of service, 440 appearances, 52 goals, Club Captain, England International... we will always miss your Gareth Barry.. Forever in every Villans heart.. Goodbye..

  • what a bad move gareth! just proves you only went there for money! but saying that you have been a loyal servant for 12 years at villa so i wish you all the best.

  • Can't wait to see Barry in Citeh blue!

  • welcome to city barry sorry villa fans

  • signed for city

  • barry the living legen d coming to city getting a medical come on you BLUES!!!!

  • still think hes a legend guys ? hahahahhahahahhhaha

  • Great news for LFC, Xabi Alonso is defo staying, twice as good as barry and two years younger.

    Liverpool fans never wanted Barry, he's not good enough.

  • he already has signed for us. lol check out the city website

  • rofl y u so sure hes going 2 arsenal? :P

    coz if u check sky sports news right now it actualy ses hes in talks with man city lol :P

    numpty ^.^

  • you tit wank!! it HAS be confirmed that we ARE signing him!! god you need to gt your head out your ass! your obviously not a true arsenal supporter

  • I can't recall what's the name of this song... Someone know maybe ?

  • 1. all you sayin that hes goin to arsenal - stop bein idiots. it's far from confirmed. only the daily star wrote it and there was no factually confirmed info in the "report".

    2. why do people make "videos" of pictures. THIS IS NOT A VIDEO. when i come on youtube i don't want to see a slidshow of pictures i can find on google. i want to see a fuckin video of gareth barry slammin the ball in the back of the net from 30 yards out back in 06 or something. for fucks sake people wtf are you doing???

  • HE'S COMING ARSENAL!! said this morning

    i hope he's good

  • really? where did you hear this!

  • r u being sarcastic, if not i read it on bbc sport

  • yay! that is so great!

  • He wants to come Arsenal this was said this morning! UP the Gunners

  • Liverpool wont sell alonso , but will buy barry . i saw it on rafas " shopping list "

    and he thinks : " champions league - here i come ! "

  • it suks we hav not won a game since febuary 7th and just drew against bolton

    >:(

  • i think he will go to mancity 4 the money

  • Barry doesnt want money he wants champions league football, he will go to liverpool if villa dont make 4th

  • he can come to Liverpool if Liverpool don't sell Alonso.. Barry position at Liverpool will be left back or left mid.. center mid is for Alonso and Mascherano.. Barry is good but not great. Period.

  • Rafa is an intelligent man, he would have to be MAD to sell Alonso.

    Barry will come as a backup left winger, central midfielder so if he is going to replace anyone it will be either lucas or Riera. He can of course fill in for when Alonso or Masch are injured

  • So i guess he'll be sitting on the bench most of the time.. I don't think so.. Very highly likely a high profile player will leave and that would be Alonso if the Barry deal goes through.. definitely not Lucas.. not saying that Lucas is better than Alonso..

  • Uhmm i think you are forgetting Rafa's rotation system.. Lucas is a 'backup' midfielder and he has had a lot of play time so theres no reason why Barry shouldnt..

    I'd bet my house that Alonso will not leave in the transfer window even if Barry does come. He's just had the best season of his career for gods sake.

  • hi everyone iam Turkish

    Gareth Barry is a very good fotball player

  • I met him last nite! lol

  • gareth barry is a brill player and is a legend at park always has been and always will be im so glad we ave keep him at villa park and liverpool has lost out on fantatsic player barry 4 villa

  • ilove gareth barry hes a legend at villa park.

  • Even though the media have portrayed Liverpool as the losers in this Barry saga I can assure you that most Liverpool fans wanted to keep Alonso anyway. Fucking delighted we're not gettin' this overrated, overpriced suppposed Villa "legend".

  • What and I suppose that Stevie G is a fucking legend too I mean he's so good he can't even get it right for england with lampard thats why barry is the ideal partner for ur so called fucking hero. Look how the fuck do u know hes so overrated when you dont see him play everyweek. So i'm glad you are happy that we have kept our (SO CALLED OVER FUCKING RATED PLAYER....OH AND LEGEND) at least with us he will get to play in positions which suit him and not the barmy ideas raffa puts together.

  • Whatever, Barry is class and his passing is awesome. Most Liverpool fans may not want Barry cos he's not a fan pleaser in the way someone like Ronaldo is but Barry's a top class consistent player who clearly has ability - he's not in the England team for nothing mate.

  • arsene is interested of signing him, it's in arsenal official website.

    i must say it would be tough for a.villa especially the fans if barry leave, just like if arsenal losing fabregas.

  • this guy is never worth 18 million in a million years. he is a good decent player but for that kind of money i would be looking for a world class player and barry falls way short of that level. plus liverpool already have a player who is at least as good as him in xavi alonso.

    put it this way if barry is worth 18 million then the likes of ronaldo and messi must be worth at least 10 times as much

  • please stay barry...

  • u kno wat forget about it,we need to go after silva!!!and alonso is gonna come back strong!!

  • Its clear now dat Liverpool have ended their interest. N 4 now Aston Villa have sed dat he's stayin' put. If Arsenal hunt 4 him n bid da askin' amount. Aston Villa will hestate bout it. N must chances are dat if Arsenal bid dey'll let him go. N it'll be great. Arsenal team wud be ready 2 go. Startin' XI; Adebayor, Van. Persie (Strikers). LM..Rosicky, CM..Fabregas, RM..Nasri, CDM..Barry, LB..Clichy, CB..Gallas, CB..Toure, RB..Sagna, GK..Almunia

  • No,he Liverpool is back on track and he may even play for us friday against lazio

  • Yh. I heard dat yesterday morning. His propably gnna go Liverpool. But now Arsenal are in da hunt 4 X. Alonso. I think his more experienced n more useful.

  • no... barry is better than alonso

  • dont go to liverpool we dont want u.we av alonso

  • yes we do want him.alonso is good and all,but barry is better,imagine this barry,masherano,gerrard,kuyt on midgfield with torres and keane on top

  • What's the name of this song?

  • When the lads return from Olympic duty, Barry would soon find himself on the bench anyway.

    He had one decent season. Wow weeeeeeeeeeee!

    Gerrard has done it for years, Genius!

  • Barry IS STAYING AT VILLA

    Gareth Barry - England International

    Liam Ridgewell - Villa reject./OG merchant

  • CTA7T6- DL and johnny FB

  • Barry....

    Well Villa fans are the only people who think he is special no one else doess....

    18mil for barry Haha... what a joke... Macherano Gerrard and alonso all the way... much better.. Rather spend that 18m on silva and keano...

    IM sooooo glad he aint coming to liverpool... im sure so are most people..

  • arsene will never sign him as he is very ordinary!i wou;d rather interest ashley young or agbonloher

  • if you think about it barry hasn't left for villa yet so u dont know

  • ih he wants to be associated with a club whose fans pissed on and robbed the corpses at hillsbrough that just about sums him up. Fat twat

  • That was a funny comment coming from A dumbass nobody that can't even spell.

  • Arsenal his furure, not liverpool

  • If we pay more than 10m for captain average here I'm gonna be pissed.

  • fair play to da guy if he wants to leave he deserves to win trophies bt he will be sadly missed by aston villa

  • There are only 4 Clubs in England : Liverpool, United, Arsenal and Chelsea. The guy wants to win something. Villa are just a mid-table team. Can't blame the guy for wanting to leave.

  • you cant blame gareth barry for wanting to go to a far bigger club its only a matter of time before he goes to viva liverpool fc !

  • if barry wants to go - let him go, no player is bigger than ASTON VILLA.

    if he goes roll on 30/08 and i hope villa fans give him hell.

    i dont care about 10 years service, if any of our players go to a so called top 4 club - well fuck em !

    i can forgive if they go abroad but not to that red scouse arrogant scum !

    UP THE VILLA !

  • give him a break he has been with villa forever , in his prime now, wants to try champs league football. villa are a good side but won't make the top 4 this yr.

  • Ur guys sound ungrateful.

  • and what exactly are we supposed to be grateful for ???????????

  • we better thn u so go bak to ur slums

  • sorry bindipper would you like to write that again but this time in english !

  • keeping a player who wants to leave cant be good

  • so we'll see when your lining up with reo coker and petrov in midfield next season then wont we HaHaHa

  • i hope we get him hes a very good player but 18m? villa must be having a laugh

  • NO THEY AREN'T HAVING A LAUGH! we want to keep him and that's the only way!

  • but you cant because your not a big club lol the big teams always get the players they want

  • big club?

    HAAHAHAA.

    right, first off they don't get all the players they want.

  • should be a gr8 signing i just thing we do need another class striker cos kuyt is gr8 at working hard but hes not gonna win us the premier league id luv david villa but im not sure whether we have got the dosh maybe santa cruz if we cant get villa

  • hes a gud player but alonso is better !!! but rather den getin barry v shud  buy quaresma

  • Totally disagree mate. On his day Alnso maybe better but how ofen has that bin lately, as for quaresma he's the most inconsistent player where as barry performs week in week out in the best league in the world.

  • ive been a liverpool fan all me life and liverpool must get barry as hes a fanastic player in mid and wing and during last night match england v trinidad u could see a great player bursting through middle and this is to big for barry to turn down as he is 27 and needs to play at the highest level in prem and champions league so we can win both.

  • i wud like him to play for liverpool..hes a good passer.

  • piss off.

  • oi.. Liverpool shld get barry but no more than 10 million . FUCKING hell.. cant imagine paying hefty sum to get him. we desperately need a big bodied midfielder. alonso, lucas and javier are small. gerrard is the only english bodied player. we will win the midfield battle with barry. LOOK AT CHELSEA!!! they have lampard and ballack! both are big bodied. that`s how they rule the central midfield.

  • FUKIN SLIDESHOWS

  • i hope barry stays at aston villa..im a liverpool fan and i dont see how barry is going to help liverpool move forward..he's only good at penalties..we have gerrard for that..alonso has had a poor season but he still has way more class than barry..

  • tabb33 shut the fuck up

  • loverpool should look for better midfield, he's lucky that RAFA considered him a prospect

  • I hope Barry stays at aston villa, he's a real legend and the heartbeat of avfc. he gets forward a lot in avfc and is a more creative, attack-minded CM

  • y wud barry want to leave wen at villa he is garrentead 1st team football evry season and at liverpool after a bitt he will be roting away on the bench. But the thing is i wud laugh iff villa took that 3rd spot next, season if he did move haha !!!!!!!!

  • GARETH BARRY TO SIGN FOR LIVERPOOL

  • Liverpool team next season if all rafas main targets r bought : REINA FINNAN LB-NOT SURE CARRA AGGER/SKRTEL MASCHERANO BARRY GERRARD BABEL SILVA?he'll be r top target 20million probs but ive herd he favours a move 2 us so hopefully , EL NINO-we shud challenge with that team the right blend i think finally ! barry adds energy an is a gd passer - silva is all round quality an onli 22

  • y wud we replace lucas u idiots , rafa obv likes him otherwise he wudnt play him as much as he has , all tha not quick enough shit is a load of shit - he plays 4 brazil u fool

  • Lucas is 4 the future barry is for now - an alonso will be sold 4 barry 2 fit in, probly anyway

  • cant deny barry is a gd player..

    but how is he going to fit in rafa's plan..?

  • Can't you see ?

    Lucas is a young talented player...

    He can do what other can't do...He keeps the balance in the central midfield... he also a hardworker....

    I think he needs 1 or 2 more years at Liverpool before he established himself as a very good midfielder...

  • let me tell you.. Patrik Berger was right :)

    Hey you guys, i douby lucas ability. He is slow(can`t react fast),short(not good in air/not agressive type player),doesn`t develop intelligent passing. lucas has to go. alonso have to stay even though he is slow but he has the experience. barry is an ideal player to replace lucas because he got everything what lucas dont have. plus barry is more experience! after seeing twice, i began to realise mascherano has got a good burst of pace. he is so quick

  • he set to move..

    come to liverpool

  • he's got a bit of everything. he's got a good shot, a good pass, runs up and down the field. his defending is above average, he's got a good tackle and he used to attack a lot better than he does now for liverpool, and that's something i noticed. he's not making up plays like he used to.

    from the games i watched, i only recall him having a great match(defensively) against inter. so maybe you're right not to put much faith on him right now.

    but give him time to try cope with the league.

  • true. if lucas is slow, alonso moves as fast as a turtle.

    masch is shorter than lucas, and we all know how well he plays.

    lucas is young, he's developing.

    you can't possibly want a player from a different country to adapt so quickly, give him time.

    he's got the potential, and exceptional players to learn from(gerrard,masch).

    YNWA

  • lukefrombrazil you seem to know Lucas more than all of us, so can you please tell me what exactly is lucas special at? His passes aren't special, his defence isn't better than Mascherano and he isn't that fast. You know the saying "jack of all trades mastered none." That applies on him. Lucas needs to master something soon. In today's match he had a good shot which reminded me of his goal against H&W FaCup match. Did he have a good shot when in Gremio? do you get my question?

  • lukas is still developing. he's not playing quite as well as he played in Gremio, so give him time.

    besides, with this formation set-up that we've been playing (with gerrard as a second striker), it only leaves us 3 players(masch, xabi and lucas) for the two center mid positions.

    don't know how good barry is though, don't really trust these videos on youtube, and i still haven't seen him play.

  • who cares whether he is good at gremio. the standard of premiership is a far cry from brazil. lucas small, short and slow. i cant stand him. he has to go.capello had choosen him to play for england, it says clearly about barry standard. barry will add the big body to midfield rather than the small lucas

  • Fine fuck off to liverpool a rot on the bench for the rest of your career you money grabbing cunt

  • barry and gerrard what a team! barry 4 lfc!!!!

  • yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhh whoooo

  • gerrard and xabi and masch what a team

  • Barry! please come to l`pool.

    GERRARD-ALONSO-MASCHERANO-BARR­Y

    what a luxury midfielder..

    barry is a lampard, ballack, carrick, hargreaves kind of player..

  • ziegheil, barry is replacing alonso in the 4231

  • not really.. alonso is staying.. currently there is only 3 1st team midfielders. gerrard,mascherano,alonso. with barry, there will be 4.so this can create competition in midfield. right now alonso isn`t playing up to standard, because there is no competition in midfield. lucas sucks. he mainly of a squad player. sell lucas. he too small and slow for a premiership type.

  • lucas is far quicker than alonso and at least he can pass properly. alonso keeps trying those stupid 60yard passes when theres an easy 10 yard pass he could make

    alonso has been poor for years so theres no excuses with him. bar his 1st season (where he was fantastic) hes been very disappointing. even rafa has come out and mentioned it

    100% he will be gone in the summer. lucas, mascherano, barry, gerrard, plessis is good enough

  • yes, alonso likes to do 60 yards ball. that`s good when crouch is playing. so alonso definitely will stay.plessis? u r joking. he needs time.

  • plessis in 2 games and lucas so far this season have both done more than alonso has done in his last 2 years

    alonso is on his way out, its a fact. and i dont understand you tbh, youre saying we need to sell lucas because hes slow but hes far quicker than alonso

  • well alonso has more experienced..

  • fantastic player but I bet he'll be like so many other players who just fuck off when something better comes along. He'll leave Villa soon

  • 2.englands best midfield? carrick & barry! carrick is without a doubt englands best passer of the ball. the fact he's considered a "holding" midfield is a myth, or rather a fucking joke! although he does have defensive qualitites. barry is almost the opposite. simply a great holding player, but also has that attacking instinct & technical ability that helps when attacking also, in particular in counter attacks. theyre both great, teachnically gifted, PROFFESSIONALS, who dont seek the lime light!

  • 1.england has few palyers over all & in particular in central midfield, with any real technical ability. scholsey has been our best player full stop for the past 10 years. but he's gone :( gerrard is class, no question, but very english in that he's neither a pass master playmaker, a brick shit house holder, or a box to box mystro, he's kinda in between. lampard isnt worth mentioning, hargreaves isnt english! we have a lack of technical ability in the area of the pitch thats most important.....

  • Barry is a good player, not as good as Mascherano, Alonso or Gerrard, but he is good. Dont think he would cut it at liverpool though.

  • LOL. U've good sense of humour...

  • lol..? im only saying wt i think..he is a great player..one of the best midfielders in the prem league, but i dont think hes better than the 3 liverpool have. In a way id like him to come to liverpool, but if Villa kept him they culd become much beter next season.

  • How can you use the word legend, do you know what it means?

    He's a good player but nothing special.

  • For u maybe. Read the Sun, watch joga bonito and vote on BB stars.

    He's a legend even without a pepsi ad.

  • great comment :) but what's wrong with joga bonito?

  • Gareth Barry is great at penalties

  • Great video mate,

    Right Fishfuckmagician can i just ask who you support?

  • gareth barry is the best and a living legend

  • use barry is not in the game for the glamore example lampard playing gd for club wen he comes for country in the world cup he had the most shoots never scored 1 and cant even score a pen barry plays gd day in day out and so wat if villa havent won anything wats tht gotta do with how barry plays

  • ok Fishfuckmagician u have a good point about villa not winning anything in ages but when barry was young and played for villa in his earlier days big clubs wanted hime E.G. Man Utd, Arsenal and Liverpool... but because he's loyal he stayed with villa which makes him even more better, he's obviously not beta then Hargreaves, lamperd or gerrard but i jus dnt like people saying he's crap when he's not..

  • Listen to me fuckers who hate villa and barry, He was given a chance to play for England in the euro q ...... and he played great under all that presure he was englands best player, not gerrard, lampard and im not even gonna talk about hargreaves, who has played shit for england until he had a few good games and all of a sudden hes god, well fuck him BARRY RULES AND SO DO VILLA, fantastic video 5star.

  • barry rules thats why he plays for villa who haven't won anything for how long?????he played 4 qualifiers and he played well in 2 of them...in those 4 games england's record: 2 wins 2 loses

  • Not fit to shine the shoes of Owen Hargreaves. A living legend? Sure, if he was playing in the Blue Square Premier.

  • shut the fuck up, barry is amazing, hargreaves is a piece of shit, cant score to save his life, barry if the future for england

    plas he can score penalties

    so fock u

  • thats why Hargreaves has won a champions league and Barry has won...oh villa player of the year... what an achievement

  • hargreaves is shit mate

    barry is well better than shit cunt hargreaves

    stevie g and barry should be cm 4 england

  • sorry to interuped this argument but i agree with bedavere barry is flaming class and hargries nevr plaYS 4 ENGLAND.harvs is a peice of shit. barrys 1 of the best players in the prem

  • <3 one of the best midfielders in england!!!

    i'd like to see him playing with gerrard, osman, and bentley

    nice vid ;)

  • anyway gazza451 2 facts 1) he is better at football than u and 2) you cant take the piss anyway because earning a lot of money and probably doesnt care about the publicity. im a villa fan but the vid is shite i thought wed see some action not photo shoot

  • he is crap haha england squad my ars fuck off barry

  • Let me guess your a man utd fan who lives in Cornwall and never even been to see them play but clame your their No.1 fan. You know that much about football you can't even see true talent in front of you. And lastly i guess your one of those people who think Gerrard and Lampard can play together. Thanks
