1878 Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Stay at Villa for another few years and retire as a club legend or join the travelling circus that is Man Citeh for the cash? Hmmm. His decision shows what kind of person he is. I could see why he'd think Liverpool were too good an offer to turn down for sporting reasons but City is just pathetic really.

Dave Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 To be fair to City, Robinho and the ridiculous bid for Kaka (that was never going to come off) apart they've gone for sensible players and spent sensible money on them. They could have easily paid much more for Bridge/Bellamy/Given/Barry than they have. I still dislike the idea of buying up all the good ready-made players though in an attempt to progress though, and I'm not sure how I'd feel about it if it was us tbh. Shallow as fuck.

Neil Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 I actually respected Barry for getting on with his job this season in spite of the rumours last summer. If he'd have gone to any of the top 4, fair enough. This is a total shambles. Twat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kingdawson Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 said he wanted champs league football and he's off to city who are not even in europe ffs tells you everything about him He just took a major dump on Villa and not even had the decency to wipe his arse. How would he figuratively "Wipe his arse" in this situation? go to a better team and not just go for the money. Bingo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummie Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 p.s. that doesn't mean G.Barry isn't in it for the money, but no-one ever considers that he could see Man City as a club with a much greater chance of achieving a top 4 place, as tbh Aston Villa aren't going to get there anytime soon. In the summer he said he wanted to go to Liverpool and it was purely about wanting CL football, nothing to do with money He's just gone to Man City, who won't be playing any type of European football next season, without even seeing if the Liverpool interest materialised again. I wonder what could have changed his mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wshmag Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Transfer done. Barry is a City player. SSN. Well I didn't see that coming. 12 mil is pretty cheap as well! the wages will be astronomical, though, the horrible cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Don't think you can blame Barry tbh. Not just a big payday, but with the likes of Given, Bridge, Ireland, De Jong, Kompany, Barry, Robinho, and undoubtably some more big signings to come, they have the potential certainly to push 5th place if not even push Arsenal for 4th.
