Aston Villa manager Martin O'Neill has confirmed he has received an offer from Liverpool for skipper Gareth Barry. O'Neill insisted the Reds have made a player exchange offer for 27-year-old, who has two years left of his currrent contract. The Villa chief is thought to be interested in bringing Liverpool striker Peter Crouch back to Villa Park.
