Former Aston Villa star Gareth Barry speaks at Manchester City
But he insists he is not thinking about might have been.
"It's completely out of my mind, worrying about Liverpool and what could have been. That's all in the past," he said.
"This season it's a different situation. Manchester City have had a bid accepted for me and they made me feel wanted."
Barry issued a letter to fans through The Birmingham Mail after the move explaining his decision to leave Villa Park.
He added: "People made out I was sort of apologising for it. I don't feel a need to apologise for leaving Aston Villa. I just stated my reasons. I had spent 12 years at the club and wanted to state my reasons."
