May 9 (Reuters) - Aston Villa manager Martin O'Neill has reacted angrily to newspaper comments from Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez in which the Spaniard said the pair had spoken about the "idea" of Villa captain Gareth Barry moving to Anfield.
"What idea did I have? I've got absolutely no idea," O'Neill told Villa's Web site (www.avfc.premiumtv.co.uk). "I think Rafa is being very clever here. He gives the impression that there's been constant dialogue. That's simply and utterly untrue."
