Aston Villa’s replacement for Gareth Barry
July 12, 2008
Aston Villa’s new signing Steve Sidwell has been tipped as the replacement for outgoing Villa Captain Gareth Barry who has been linked with a move to Liverpool and Arsenal.
The midfielder has stated I think the first contact was made before the whole Gareth Barry thing came about, so I don’t think it’s right to say I’m his replacement. But with his experience, position and physical attributes, the 25 year old Sidwell is seen as the ideal replacement for Barry.
The £5.5m acquisition of Sidwell from Chelsea by Villa boss Martin Oneill seems destined to pay dividends as the vacancy of captain is up for grabs and could well be taken by Sidwell.
