2025/26 Thierno Barry

He's 23 in a couple of weeks and some make out he's a teenager. Every one of us could name at least 20 players in the league that are younger than him that are miles better.

"Give him time to adapt" - trapping a ball, passing accurately, and making contact with a cross are all fundamentals of football. Nothing to do with the leagues he has played in or his age. He's not good enough and never will be.
Just a brain dead take.
 


For all the hate they both get, Barry is an inch away from connecting on Garner’s cross for a certain goal and Henderson pulls a brilliant save out from Beto’s header that ends up going in off Grealish.
 

Hugely lacking in confidence. He looks lost out there.

Feel for the kid, I’d love him to get a goal and see how that changes things.

I don't think he's a goal away from things changing. Feel like he needs a few cameos where he does the simple things right and plays with a lot more energy than he's showing. When in doubt in front of this crowd, put a shift in.
 
It’s his lack of movement that gets me, he doesn’t make any runs down the channels or when we get near the box, he needs a proper forwards coach I think to bring him up to speed with the prem.
