For some reason this won't let me post!!!

Looking like he's packing it away in the new Mars add but check out the edit of his wikipedia page under "Managerial Career: Strategy & Tactics"

Quote
Strategy & Tactics
Teams managed by Barnes are taught to either hold or give the ball providing they do it at the right time. When in attack Barnes' sides attempt to get the ball to the line at a variety of speeds ranging from slow to fast. In team talks Barnes' always warns his players to be wary of the oppositions attempts to hit them and hurt them in both defence and attack. One criticism levelled at sides managed by Barnes is that one way they beat their opposition is as a result of getting around the back. John Barnes, although born in Jamaica, is a self proclaimed England man.

The really annoying thing is that I've had that blinking rap stuck in my head for the last few days due to that bloody Mars advert.
