See what you say, but I still think it's been twisted (paranoid agenderist that I can be) he's saying if you're good enough you'll play, but you may not play when or where you want. Love the contradiction in the headline vs the paragraph - Richards refused to warn Delph against the move but pointed to new Liverpool man James Milner as a sign of how things can work out.

If he was signing for the scum, he'd be going there to develop & grow as part of the squad I.e great move, usual anti city bile

Spot on, you can only imagine many of them write their columns sat in their bedrooms in their Fred the Red slippers, watching repeats of the last 2 minutes of the Champions League win vs Bayern on a loop. Either that or in the massage room at Carrington getting pulled off by Phil Jones
 
Richards: Delph asked me about Manchester City move - he needs assurances about first-team football

The defender says the England international must receive assurances he will play regularly if he is to make the move to Manuel Pellegrini's side

Micah Richards has revealed that newAston Villateam-mateFabian Delphhas asked him about a potential move toManchester City.

Goalrevealed earlier this month thatCity are on the verge of making Delph their first major signing of the summer transfer windowby activating his £8 million release clause and paying him £100,000-a-week.

And Richards, who spent 10 years at the Etihad Stadium before signing for Villa in June, says he has spoken with Delph about life at the club.

“He has asked me what I think about the situation. I told him I can’t comment to be honest,” he told reporters at the launch of Aston Villa’s new kit.

“I don’t want to say go there and then he doesn’t play him because he’ll be ringing me up afterwards! It’s tough isn’t it?

“If he’s got guarantees to play? He’s been unbelievable for Aston Villa. Every player wants to play at the highest level. If he’s going to be playing Champions League...I don’t know.

“But if he’s going there to be a squad player, then no [he shouldn’t go]. It would be great for us if he stayed, though.

“You need good players to succeed and that’s what we want here at Villa. You can’t be average players and expect to finish first in the league. You need winners in your team and with Delph we have that.”

However, despite his words of caution Richards does feel that the 25-year-old has what it takes to succeed at the Etihad Stadium.

“James Milner has played in six or seven positions and still wanted to leave,” he added. “So if he [Delph] gets assurances he’s going to play then the decision is his.

“But I wouldn’t say don’t go to Manchester City because if he’s playing well he could play."
 
Richards isn't really the person to ask is he! Don't think he is Pellegrini's biggest fan. Another one who rated himself more highly than his ability warranted.
 
Richards, unfortunately, wasn't concerned with owt other than being the black Chappy.

Also, let's face it, didn't have what it took to be a top class right-back long term, and was too short to be a centre-back (a position which I think would have suited him better).

That said, I can't see him giving a negative opinion.

The fuck?!
 
I'd imagine Delph would have chatted to Sinclair, Milner and Lampard too.

Most would have told him the same thing as Richards, i.e. great place to work but you'll struggle to get games.

If I was Delph I'd go for a short contract of 2 years. If it worked out then extend, if not then walk after the first year.
 
Surely he has faith in his own ability to play for City - over the likes of Fernando?

Look at players like Adam Johnson, he would have never played for England if it wasn't for us.

At £8m as well it's a no brainer!
 
No.1 - and not that it should matter - but I'm black, and on behalf of black people everywhere, we don't need your righteous indignation, so pipe the fuck down.

Secondly, tell me now that you don't think that he was overdoing it with the Joleon Lescott arm-wrestling when he should have been concentrating on battling for a first-team spot.

More interested in the perks of stardom than in actually knuckling down and building a footballing legacy for himself.
 
We dont want anyone at the club who doubts his own ability. The fans can dispute whether he is good enough but if his thoughts are "I dont think i am good enough to get in the team" he should stay where he is and settle for mediocrity. I dont think for one second Delph considers himself not good enough!

What has Richards race or yours got to do with anything?

You brought it up and i for one am questioning why?

No righteous indignation just flabbergasted at your fucking stupidity!

As you were.
 
Chappy is white. I could have written the Yorkshire Chappy. I could have written the young Chappy.

But I didn't. I chose to write the black chappy and it has as much bearing / insult as the others.

If the use of the word 'black' offends you, then perhaps you're the idiot racist.

Bit of an overstep calling someone an 'idiot racist'
 
I really don't understand why if I would have described him as muscly or tall then it would be OK, but because I described him as black everyone has to acts 'Victorian' offended.

Is he muscular ? Yes. Is he tall ? Yes. Is he black ? Yes.

Let go of incorrectly placed righteous indignation. It'll do you the world of good.
