After the Valencia game it looks like Micah may well be a starter for us this season so if him and Ned both get a good run of games in the same position i'd like to see who comes out on top. Remember prior to Richards coming along the press all talked about Ned as an England regular.
Neither of these guys would get anywhere near Barca's team, nor Real Madrid. Nor indeed Chelsea or Arsenal.
It's a blunt fact of life. Sadly for those who would still like Jeff Whitley and Dixon Etuhu in the team the days of overated academy boys getting a first team birth are over.
Boyata showed more class in the few brief appearances he made last year than either of these immensely athletic but limited footballers.
I beg to differ. Richards can be astonishingly good. He'd walk into arsenals team and tbh Chelsea's as well. Barcelona have dani alves and real sergio ramos so would be a bit hard.
