I disagree with anyone who says his time was up, he could have easily done another two years for us in bit part role. He was replaced by Garcia who was all kinds of horrible until that bit of a run he put together towards the end.
Pep would have loved a peak Barry in todays team just sitting in front of the back four.

He wasn't replaced by Garcia, he was replaced by Fernandinho.
As for a bit part role, I'm not so sure, there's always the danger of him 'seizing up' if not playing regularly at the age he was at the time.

Im talking like for like position not necesarily time they were bought, Fernandinho played(until pep) a completly different role than Barry every did for us. Garcia was more like for like for me.
You might be correct on the seizing up maybe he needs to play all the time.
