Born in Jamaica Barnes came to England as a small boy and was spotted by Watford when a teenager. He made his debut in 1981 under Graham Taylor, who was then guiding the team from the Fourth Division to the First (then the top league). His pace and ball control down the left soon made him the Watford fans’ hero. Barnes left Watford on 9 June 1987 in a £900,000 deal for Kenny Dalglish's Liverpool, after appearing 292 times for the Hornets and scoring 83 goals. He joined at the same time as England team-mate Peter Beardsley and linking up with John Aldridge and then Ian Rush to form one of the most formidable attacking lines of Liverpool's illustrious history. Much more than an out-and-out winger, Barnes was far better as a left-side midfielder, where his intelligent running on and off the ball could create openings for himself and others. Barnes is a player who frustrated England fans but this is for two reasons largely out of his control. Firstly he could not meet the expectations that were placed on him after the Brazil goal (shown above) and secondly, he was constantly played out of position for his country, a fate he is not the only one to have suffered.
