England ace Barry in £12m City switch

GARETH BARRY will be wearing a sky blue shirt next season after Mark Hughes to
day clinched a £12million move from Aston Villa to the City of Mancheste
r Stadium for the highly-rated England midfielder.

The 28-year-old Barry, who has become a talismanic captain during 12 years and
almost 400 games at Villa Park, was a target for several Premier League clubs
following a high-profile chase by Liverpool last summer.

The former England Under-21 skipper's ability, versatility and character made
Hastings-born Barry a natural priority target as ambitious manager Hughes tack
les the second phase of his Blues revolution.

With Player of the Year Stevie Ireland having committed himself to a further f
ive years at City, Barry's arrival at the club after signing a five-year contr
act means Hughes will have one of the Premier League's most formidable midfiel
d rosters.

The City boss had warned his rivals that he likes to move quickly once he iden
tified his wanted men, and Barry's move has been completed while most of footb
all is still enjoying a post-season break.

Barry, who has 29 full England caps, is currently with Fabio Capello's nationa
l squad at their Hertfordshire hotel preparing for Saturday's 2010 World Cup q
ualifying match in Kazakhstan.

He also captained England Under-18s and joined Villa from Brighton as a traine
e in 1997. As his career flourished, his versatility emerged and he shone at c
entre-back and left back as well as across the midfield.

巴里在四大豪门里想立足确实有点儿难度
不过在曼城貌似和在维拉也没太大区别，维拉也正是在上升期
可能钱能多挣点儿吧

曼城现在应该是世界上最富有的俱乐部了吧？老板真有钱，应该组个新银河战舰。

曼要加强中后场才对。

曼城要打造新的银河战舰很困难  还是先挤进英超4强吧
