What I was ACTUALLY thinking was: Why has Rafa spent soo much time pursuing Barry? He isn't that much better than Alonso (if he is better at all) and we are really strong in the centre midfield. gerrard, mascher, Lucas, Plessis. I think it's a massive waste of money to splash out heaps of money in a position that we don't really need. Surely it's better to spend some of the supposed 18million pounds on a good winger? Silva? Van Der Vart? The whole Barry thing annoys me
Yeah, really didn't make sense. Although Van der Vaart is a left footed Central midfielder, who can play on the left, same as Barry.
I hope we try and get Silva though, rumoured to be going to Bar�a �25m.
