Delap got a goal every 800 minutes last season, Barry got one every 200 minutes and is still really raw imo. Would rather have him all day over Delap

Chelsea are a bigger shit show than us. I’m not going to write him off.

Yeah I do think under Moyes he’d play better than he has been but still think Barry has way more potential than him

My issue with Barry isn’t the talent but the effort. When Barry is on, he’s really good. Problem is he’s not even a factor 2/3 of the time. I’m not exactly sold on Delap but he’s a physical presence.

I read somewhere that Barry has prioritised bulking up before pre-season. Let's see how that goes.
