What is he earning at City ?

At Everton , he would be only on a mid rate wage I reckon , as he wouldn't be any where near the star attraction in our team .

 

[Richard]

Think he is on about £45,000 at City.

 

[bizzbo]

i thought it was 60k


**edit*** fair enough, the times has it at 45k

 

[Darker shade of Blue]

Think he is on about £45,000 at City.

That would fall under our wage cap , just , but I doubt he would be offered that .
I think he would probably get between 25 and 35 max , untill he proved himself . I really can't see this happening though to be honest .

Moyes is still insistent that noone is going anywhere , which means if they did , it would have to be a huge deal in our favour , and I just can't see Richards being that big of a carrot .

Tbh Richards the season before last was jags and lescott all in one and utd tried getting him for 22-25m at 19 years old. If you watched both derby games that season you would of seen they couldnt get past him and when tevez was asked about the best players hes played against he said Richards.

This season has not been so good, happends to alot of players who burst on the scene at a young age.

Hasn't he had a bit of an issue with his knee ?

He did get injured at the back end of the season when he was playing really well and hasnt looked the same this season. May be that hes bigger and lost a bit of pace?? We don't know.

 

[bizzbo]

he's fallen apart under the spotlight. astonishing lapses in concentration, terrible decision making, some diabolical moments at both ends of the pitch. yes, he's looked slower this year, too muscular, but it's looked more like someone who's come too far too soon and whose confidence has crumbled under the pressure. he doesnt have the experience, craft and understanding to match his reputation. thankfully he ended the season well, hopefully he's gone through the growing pains and is rebuilding his game upon firmer foundations.

 

[Gareth Barry Manilow]

Micah is only 20. He's got years left, loan him to them for a season, they need a RB. Hibbert is crap.

 

[Cityisland]

i hope we don't give them Micah as a sweetener,as I said in a previous thread, ideally I would send Micah out to somewhere like Wolves,Brum,Stoke on loan for a season, where the pressure isn't as high and he could hopefully get back to his true potential.

Pressure not as high? spk 2 mr southgate.

Now that might not be a bad idea .

 

[maine man]

can't see it TBH, i thought i'd seen it some where that Hughes wants to avoid swapping players as he needs to strengthen the squad,

 

[moomba]

That had better be bullshit. Swapping Micah for Lescott would be a fucking terrible move

Agreed

 

[r.soleofsalford]

i want richards to stay, to see if he can recapture the form that got him into the england team. i dont know what his general attitude is like, but neither do the vast majority that slag him off

with respect can you honestly see micah richards wanting to play for everton. its not meant to be a dig although a i know your a gladyator ;)

i know everton are were above us last year, and their honours list is by far superior, but until we got this investment we were threading pretty much the same path, only being able to buy has beens and never wilbies.

if we did unearth a young footballing gem, it was odds on some team with more money than us, would come knocking with a fist full of cash, that we couldnt refuse to lure him away. its a sad state of affairs but thats life.

fortunately for us our circumstances have changed for the better, its something i never in my wildest dreams i thought could happen, it still makes me smile when i think of it.

we all know that a stroke of good fortune like this is the only way everton will ever become a big player in the prem again

 

[dw7]

dont like richards he had a very bad season but im sure he could get his form back if he was dropped for a while 1 defender out 1 in doesnt make sens when trying to build a squad

get rid of jo insted of richads would make more sense imo

 

[svennis pennis]

Darker shade of blue, your kidding yourself if you think you could turn down eighteen million cash. Our deals have been paid upfront, the same with Barry. Moyes would rip our arm off.

 

[Rammyblues]

My view is we don't need to swop players, be surprised if we did, Micah is only young but seems to have been at the club forever, all players can have dips in form the real test is whether the players themselves want to get over that dip and regain the form which in Micahs case earned him full international honours. If they want a swap let them have TBH. Or simply given them 30m (I know you will say Lescott ain't worth it ) he probably isn't but assembling a team capable of achieving at least top 6 is MH's only priority.

I know exactly what you mean, but there is a possibility that Micah has got wind of the impending arrival of Glen Johnson and has 'seen his arse'. If Johnson is on his way, then Micah is surplus to requirements and his arrival (along with Jo), could soften the blow for Moyes and Everton supporters.
