Micah Richards the pundit

This won't be popular but the only pundits I think are worth listening to are Souness and Neville. Souness has been a player, manager and although he is grumpy you know that he is telling you what he thinks from experience and I don't find him biased, although others may do.

When I heard Neville was going to be a pundit, my blood boiled. We've enough reds on the TV and don't need any more but he is superb. He laughs at himself and analyses the games in a neutral way. He's a guy who's also got good insight and I never thought I would say that about him.

I like Micah, he's a blue, but I'd prefer it if sometimes he wasn't the clown and just told us what it's really like. The lad made his debut very early, had a lot on his shoulders at his age, played for England early etc. He's got enough experience to be able to talk about it rather than trying to be the clown. Winding Keane up is fun, but after a while it distracts from what he should be doing - talking about the game and using his experiences to explain it to us.

Generally I agree but I think below Neville and Souness are a group including Keown, Jenas, Murphy and Osman who can be annoying but are much better than the rest.

I can see why non-City fans could be irritated by him. He can come across as overbearing (some might call it larger than life). Me? I can take him or leave him. If we're talking ex-blues, I find Lescott a better pundit. Or Nigel, though he's mainly on Bein. Or Dunney.

@jimharri ...well of course you would find Dunney a good pundit. He is the legend, he is the best at everything (please don't mention own goals.) Dunney Monster is a true Blue. :-)
 
They should have nedum on with him, a professor of the game and the likeable nature of Micah would be a winner.
For the Scouse derby they had souness, carragher and Kelly caites covering the game, 3 representing Liverpool, why not 2 from city?

I would have thought Everton fans would have been more pissed off with that, at least we had Micah for the Liv City game, for a scouse derby should at least be an Evertonian there.

He was on last night saying how he loved Newcastle and wanted them to do well.

I wonder why he was singing "sad geordie bastard, and shit football team".

The comments about city legends room being "Stevie Lomas and Georgie Kinkladze" too, from a bog standard serviceable footballer who hardly a legend nor his mediocre mate.

Conflicted.

on the one hand, Micah, Joleon, Barry are very good. But I don’t want happy clappers, regardless of how good they are.

all I want is neutral. I mean how hard is it to supply that?

Thats the thing. I don't want pundits to blow smoke up my arse - if we do something wrong, discuss it, but conversley, don't detract from something good or cover up diving and phantom head injuries. It shouldn't be difficult to deliver.
 
I feel sorry for Micah. He's crap at what he does, and his mediocrity will be on show every week as Sky and BBC continue with their preposterous quota filling appeasement mission. Employ someone based on their ability to fulfill the role which they are paid for rather than employing someone you think shows that you are being seen to do the right thing. He's merely a pawn in a leftie, middle class, meedya, woke snowflake, z generation agenda.

Run for the hills Micah,

Don’t be taken in by Neville’s mask. He is still a snide **** who despises us and our fans. He deserved every drop of beer that was flung over him at Brighton

Exactly. You only have to look at examples like the way he and Tyler try to influence public opinion and perception by constant repetition over the Mane red card, 'tactical fouls' and other instances where anti City lies eventually get believed.
Constant repetition of seeing him over a long period will always remind me he is an out and out twat, little different to the berks on u tube whose names evade me
 
People still letting Micah bother them lol he is lots of things but I'll tell you what he isn't

A rag or a scouse **** droning on about us negatively all the time, in fairness the only one that seems fair is Chapman and he seems to delight in telling it how it is to the scousers.

I'd rather listen to Micah laugh than Ferdinand, Van Persie, Hargreaves, Evra, Mcpointy, Hoddle, Hinchcliffe, Townsend, Owen, Sutton, Keown, Owen, Murphy, Redknapp, Spitty, Rat boy, Sherwood and Morrison, spew their bitter bile at every single opportunity.


We all enjoyed McCoist the other day, well oddly he is listed as a BT pundit so he must be contracted for the Glasgow Derby, shame, maybe they should give him more work as he was better than all of the above named.
