Gareth Barry's forte is the apparent simplicity of his play which, if translated to the sixty four squares, would never win anything.


Bollocks. Poor man's draughts.


You think so ??


No not really.

As for the footballers who most remind me of chess pieces, I'd suggest Crouch for a bishop, Nani for a queen, Lescott for a rook and Aaron Lennon for a pawn.
