When he finally got a chance in midfield for England he brought the balance to that midfield we had been looking for.

The trouble was Lampard and Stevie Me played the same role for England and both wanted to be the driver in midfield and just could not play together. Barry brought a left foot balance and someone who could sit and play from the back without wanting to drive through and score. The only thing that let him down was his pace really. How close were we really in getting Lampard and Barry together at Villa. I'm sure there was rumours when he left West Ham although they could have been Doug's Season Ticket boosting non deals.
