I think he is a very good player but I dont know what the plan is for him, is he going to be used in babels position and babel be moved to upfront ? played at LB ? Played as another CM ?
Agree about quaresma with the diving but I think people want him mostly because he has undoubted talent. I have given up on us getting him but I am smart enough to see he would be a great player to sign, his talent is clear to see.
Personally at the moment I dont want barry mainly because I dont know what the plan is for him, if he is to be used in babels position with babel being astriker then im all for it but I dont think we would get the best out of barry using him as a LB and I think our central midfield area is getting so congested its ridiculous. Im all for buying him as a left forward kind of player though, he puts some wicked deliveries into the box and can hit the ball aswell. When you think about paying £10 million plus on him when we could buy mancini for £4-10 million and use him on the left or add 2-5 million and get bentley for the wing i would prefer one of the latter as its more their natural position, if he is for LB we seem poised to get amorbieta who is only 23 and seems a likely signing. Im not against us signing barry but im very unsure right now about it, i think i could come around to the idea of getting him though.
It seems people are torn between two opinions on barry, some think he is good and some think he is more than just a good player, some see him as a first teamer and others a squad player, I think he is a very good player but as I said im split between opinions due to which position he will be played in.
