West Brom midfielder Gareth Barry: Thrashing Man Utd my favourite game

West Brom midfielder Gareth Barry admits Manchester City's 6-1 triumph at Manchester United was his favourite game.

Barry rates the 2011 derby humiliation as the stand-out moment of his record busting career.

The 36-year-old sets a new Premier League appearance record when he steps out for West Brom at Arsenal on Monday.

Barry said: “For one thing I'd never played in a winning team at Old Trafford so it was nice to get that monkey off my back for a start.

“But to win there in such a way with City did make it that extra bit special. That's probably the big one."
