Barry will return if fit I hope, Vieira to the bench though Im sure he'd love to stick one on Spurs for old times sake.
Not that any extra incentive is needed for wednesday but im sure Vieira will relish the opportunity of getting one over on Spuds again.Would prob like to see Barry back in as im not sure he will be able to perform like he did today again so soon after.
Altough i must say i think him being in the side has gradually had a positive effect as his experience and presence rubs off on the other players when playing alongside him.
footballing smarts or legs?
That is the question!
Indeed as i said i would prefer Barry if fit as i dont think he has the legs.
If needs be i think Vieira will be well up for it but i really do have my concerns about him playing games in such quick succession.
Tough decesion ahead for Mancini as it will be difficult to drop Vieira after todays display.
I've been very disappointed with Barry, apart from a few games early in the season.
I had liked him as a player for Villa and thought he could be a good signing for us, but no way is he a midfield general.
In fact, having started as a left back, he's neither one thing or the other, at present.
Hopefully, if he has been carrying an injury he'll get it sorted during the off-season.
Though if Manca is confirmed as manager for next season, he may well be looking around for a proper midfield general
