Seen quite a bit of him, living in Derby, and all my mates have Season Tickets so I've heard even more about the lad... When there was all the fuss about Huddlestone I said back then that he's too immobile, slow and needs too much time on the ball to have an impact in the Premiership - I can't believe he's a regular starter at Spurs to be honest - but Barnes is a real talent. From what I've see he's not ready for the Premiership yet as he's too inconsistent and anonymous in too many games. He's actually been dropped/rested for many of Derby's recent games and Billy Davies himself says he's got a lot to learn. He'll deffo be in the Premiership one day, and probably at a top-6 club, but he's not ready yet!!
