Everton boss Roberto Martinez says he is in no hurry to sign Gareth Barry on a permanent basis, despite seeing him as an important player for the Blues.  loveevertonforum.com/page/gareth-barryBarry joined on a season-long loan from Manchester City on transfer deadline day in August and has made a terrific impact on the side, but the manager says that he is happy with the way the contract situation is. “No, Barry is here until the end of the season, that cannot be affected,” said Martinez. “All we want is for him to enjoy his football and to be effective for Everton and then we will take it from there. “We are blessed with quality in the squad. We don’t want to lose any player, but there is a chance now for others in the squad. Then we will assess in January. “When you get to work with someone who has played more than 500 Premier League games, you know that they don’t need any extra motivation to be at their best. “I don’t think it makes any difference if he sees he has an opportunity to play for England again or not. “But I see the standards he brings on a daily basis and see Gareth as a very, very valuable option for England. “Only time will tell, but what he brings onto the pitch is very difficult to find. You don’t get many options where you have someone of that experience, know-how and tactical.” Read more: www.nsno.co.uk/everton-news/2013/10/boss-in-no-hurry-to-sign-barry/#ixzz2iIZgTUQY Follow us: @nsno on Twitter | nilsatis on Facebook |

Barry has to prove himself before he is given any extension so not sure what they want Martinez to say. He has only played a few games and it's a long season.
