Micah Richards

RobotCrow · August 6, 2014

Sky Bet saying he's odds on for Everton, but prior to today, I had't seen anything else about him coming, anywhere.

Much like Jack Rodwell, he's been on the bench at City so long that I honestly don't even know what I think about him or whether he'd be a useful signing. I would like to see one more defender come in (along with another winger and forward...sigh...) so that we don't get stuck in a bad situation when all the hamstrings start popping before we go to Anfield.

I'd have him over Hibbo tbh.

Yeah, and like a boss I searched around a bit for mentions of Richards, couldn't find any, posted this one, and then immediately found the discussion elsewhere. My bad!

Never mind mate, gives the thread police something to get their knickers in a twist about!

As for Richards. Would be a damm useful signing. There's a potential England international in there wasting away. And seeing Hibbert this pre-season, god do we need some more cover at RB. Also can play CB which is a bonus!!

Get him loaned bobby!

I'd love him here always rated him. Would have him as a centre back though.

Id have ken barlow over hibbo at the minute.

As for richards i have seen him lately and he looks really poor, rather see someone else if we were to strenghen that area

He's a bit crap really.

Runs like a baffoon, positional sense of a 12 year old. Typical overhyped and overpaid English footballer

Welbeck19 · August 7, 2014

I remember when he was rated highly lol.

Azzurri · August 7, 2014

Would be better cover than Hibbert if on a sensible wage.

I think he's a centre back, though, got the attributes to play there more efficiently IMO. Maybe right back cover until he can play alongside Stones when Jagielka and Distin have packed in?

Big Fat Sam · August 7, 2014

Loaned on 50% contribution towards his wages with a 5m fee in there. He's not all that like but better option than Hibbo at both RB and CB.

Can he play as a striker?

Last time I looked we have a zillion defenders. Don't need another one thanks.

Ditto Tom Cleverly and midfielders.

Yeah sound, be boss when Europa League and injuries hit leaving us with a back four containing Hibbert, Alcaraz and Duffy.
