Gareth Barry

[Khalekan]

Today strengthened Gaterh's claims to be Player Of The Season.

 

[Moomin]

He doesn't seem to have made a difference in any other league home performance recently so what were you expecting him to do differently here?

We missed him, can you admit it?

 

[Saint Domingo]

We missed him, can you admit it?

He's been ever present in a team that has consistently been bottom half for nearly two seasons now. I don't think anyone apart from Lukaku would be missed if they suddenly weren't in our 11 any more.

Missed him badly

He's our only central midfielder who can actually play football

We need to get Gareth a pair of electric pink boots and a sleeve tattoo if we want our younger lids to appreciate him.

.....you don't realise how important some players are until they are missing.

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Loss had nothing to do with him...we were pedestrian back to front.

Spot on, if Lukaku wasn't scoring for fun it'd be a non-contest.

We had no-one picking the ball up from defence today. Besic having a mare in the first half didn't help, but it shows the importance of having a bit of class in that area.

We had a centre midfield of none footballers for 90 mins,I reckon him being missing was a big factor in our pedestrian performance

Looking for excuses...he's been an ever-present in the side throughout this shambolic campaign.

I'm not looking for excuses,it was woeful

Would him being In the side today have changed the result and performance? No idea but I'd still rather have him playing than Besic or Cleverley,those two can't pass a ball to save their lives

 

[ftk43]

Somehow i have a feeling he's going to be a terrific manager in the future, reckon he has the right character for it.

But for right now he is one of the first names on the teamsheet, i so wish he was 10 years younger.

 

[Prevenger17]

Domingo's on damage limitation after today, no doubt

Just wondering if Martinez will make Gareth Barry apologise for his comments on the team:
