adminLIVERPOOL. — Everton manager Roberto Martinez described Gareth Barry as one of England’s finest ever players after he helped guide his team closer to the final of the League Cup.
Barry (34) produced another impressive midfield performance as he orchestrated a 2-1 win over former club Manchester City in the first leg of their semi-final at Goodison Park on Wednesday night.
“Gareth Barry is one of those players that gets underrated. For me the big reason why we have so many effective young players is there are leaders in the mould of Gareth Barry,” said Martinez.
“I have never seen a player with such incredible professionalism, standards and so level-headed as Gareth Barry. For me he is one of the best English players ever.” – AFP.
