Jype 6,398 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Would take him in a heartbeat but unfortunately I can't see him leaving Man City. Why would he want to leave and why would City ever want to sell him, especially to a direct rival? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rahul Haque 57 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 kind of overrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike 12,049 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I remember Franck Leboeuf saying that he dislikes Richards because he stays attacks to often and stays forward too often. He also mentioned ManCity conceded the most goals on their right flank - but only when Richards played. Now, im no expert on Richards but even I noticed he likes to get forward. Sorry, Artinho but when it comes down to it, I'm going to listen to Leboeuf.I don't think assists really matter because Dani Alves had 7 assists last season.

OneMoSalah 8,887 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Richards is still Englands best right back though. Imagine Richards - Cahill - JT - Cole in the same team. Could be an amazing defense if they sort things out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I was kind of disappointed with Richards in his turn out for Britain in the football.. Maybe I'm being slightly rash, but maybe there's a good reason why Capello & Hodgson & Mancini looked the other way at Richards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I was kind of disappointed with Richards in his turn out for Britain in the football.. Maybe I'm being slightly rash, but maybe there's a good reason why Capello & Hodgson & Mancini looked the other way at Richards?Perhaps as a main RB yes. But Richards would provide very good competition and very good back up to Ivanovic IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Richards would provide very good competition and very good back up to Ivanovic IMO.I don't think there's any point in that then. He's probably on a huge wage amount at City so we'd have to match that, then there's the mission of paying City a fee for which they'd show no mercy over.. Just cause they can. Because he's English too we're looking at something like £15million for him.If we're looking at "back-ups" to Ivanovic it should be someone cheaper like the current, rumoured, target Azpil-.

If he's available at a reasonable price, he'd be very good back up to Ivanovic and also good competition to him. If we're looking for a new starting RB, which I don't see the point in, we're going to have to spend more than £20m to find anyone better than Ivanovic IMO.

Ollie 4,400 Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 He's English, young, powerful and quick so i'm sure he can get better. They're not bad qualities to have in fairness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Erm, not sure what to make of this...http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2256464/Micah-Richards-latest-Rafael-Benitez-wont-rule-Manchester-City-defender.html?ITO=1490&ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitterRafa Benitez added to the intrigue surrounding Micah Richards’ unexpected appearance at Stamford Bridge last night by refusing to rule out a move for the Manchester City defender.Richards, who has been injured for most of the season, began the speculation when he appeared at the main entrance an hour before the game.Benitez was given the chance after Chelsea’s shock 1-0 defeat by QPR to confirm that Richards was only in London to watch the game.Instead, just as he responded to questions about his incoming signing Demba Ba, he simply replied: ‘We don’t discuss other teams’ players.’ It was a surprising response considering Richards’ status at Manchester City and the Barclays Premier League champions will be surprised that Benitez didn’t dismiss the prospect of a transfer out of hand.Chelsea have relied on central defender Branislav Ivanovic to play at right back in the past, although Cesar Azpilicueta has played the last five games.

Slam Dunk 1,442 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Doubt there's anything in this. Probably just watching his mates and the media have put 2 and 2 together and made 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
