Gareth Barry feels his decision to join Manchester City has been justified with the arrival of Carlos Tevez and Roque Santa Cruz.
Reds boss Rafael Benitez criticised the decision, suggesting it was taken due to "money, money, money".
"I think there was maybe a bit of frustration (from Rafa Benitez) because it was well documented that Liverpool were in the market to sign me for a couple of years," he said today.
"But Manchester City had agreed a fee with Aston Villa.
"Once I'd spoken to the manager, heard the ambition and he told me what the club were aiming for, that suited me.
"People can talk about the money because of the speculation in the media but the players that are now joining are proving my decision to be a correct one.
"These are players that are really going to improve Manchester City and take us to where we want to go."
