Gareth Barry:
Owing to Javi Garcia’s presence in the Manchester City squad, Gareth Barry had to move to loanee’s heaven Everton. Barry has been a constant presence in the Blues squad and under Roberto Martinez his game has flourished and seen the best light of the day. Talking of his screamer against Norwich this Saturday, the English International can still dream to wear his national colours next year in Brazil. City’s loss has been Everton’s gain, and the former Aston Villa man has enjoyed a renaissance season ahead of the showcase event in Sambaland next year. Barry’s style fits into Martinez’s strange attacking system as it allows the left back to barge forward without losing their shape while attacking.
