Villa fans are sheiking their heads in disgust! Barry has left a traditional club with doting fans, hard-working, honest teammates and a manager with a track record of success at every level for the big bucks at the Middle Eastern playboys' new toy club.
Whilst a Stephen Ireland-Gareth Barry midfield may work very nicely and propel City into Europe next season, there is the same chance that it will backfire and that Barry will go out of favour and move on. How long before the owners have found another younger, more talented, sexier midfield maestro to run the show?
Apparently, Kaka is off to Chelsea. Or is it Madrid? Will Pato be a duck out of water at Stamford Bridge if he signs up to Lotti's revolution for a cool £150k a week? Has the Drog sworn an oath to move the other way? Are Chelsea and Milan just going to do a mass players swap? Like a wife swap but without the bitching? Then again...
Spurs will be linked with any Harry, Dick and Tom - or rather Jose, Cristiano and Fernando. The newly promoted trio will desperately scour the globe in Operation Pointless, only to end up with Robbie Savage, Lee Carsley and Neil Lennon and a lanky Panaman striker named Enrique (Maria by night).
Will Shearer stay at Newcastle? Will Ashley? Does anyone care?
Frankly, I'm looking forward to focussing my attention back on England's qualification for Euro 2010 and to a new generation of Lions finally stamping their mark on the international scene. Bring Crouch back, get Wayne fired up and watch the boys fly! Enjoy!
About Me
- Christopher HT Potter
- I am 24 and have a real passion for Spurs, having supported them since the age of 6. That means I have not seen them win anything of note (other than the Peace Cup, Worthington Cup and Carling Cup of course!). I have an interest in European football and would like to become a football journalist abroad. My favourite ever Spurs player was Didier Zokora and my player to watch out for in the future is Dean Parrett. My pet hate in football are hackneyed sayings, inflated transfer fees, and diving and other bad sportsmanship. Perversely, I would like to see a European club break the monopoly that English football has on the Champions League and I think that Real Madrid and Barcelona have a great chance to make this happen this year. My other interests include FC Barcelona, the Chicago Bulls, Spanish and French culture, good food and music, lying on the beach in the sun and a good G&T.
