Pab Zab

The Chief said:Couldn't believe the percentage of fans in pre-season questioning his claim to the RB spot over Richards. Injuries have put that debate to bed but Zab's a cracking all-round full-back in his own right and a true Blue who never lets us down. People like him deserve that win tonight.
Exactly. Richard's is quite simply too muscular to be athletic. One sprint and he goes anaerobic and simply never recovers. He's also made of glass. Quite simply, he's like the cake you bake using what everyone else tell's you are the best ingredients, using the correct methods and when you open the oven door you find it never turned out quite as you hoped or expected.
In short, to ever have any hope of getting anywhere back to where he was 5-6 years ago, Richards needs to lose at least, yes at least 30lbs of bulk. If he doesn't, he will be plagued by limited mobility, poor recovery and constant muscle injuries.
It is so obvious, it begs the question why someone at City's sports science department can't see this?

And thats with Ribery performing like he graduated with first class honours from the Suarez/Young School of Swan Diving!Tim of the Oak said:Out of this world tonight. Ribery still struggling to get out of Zab's pocket.
Zab plays the game hard but fair. Ribery may be a great player, but he truly is quite detestable in the way he plays the game.

Brilliant and inspiring performance last night.
The best performance from a city full back I've ever seen.
To have such an impact on the flow of the game as a substitute at full back against the best winger in the world at the home of the European champions is quite unbelievable.
(And I'm ashamed to say I've been one his biggest critics in the past)

Great thread, so proud of the spirit of our players last night and what support from our fans.
Zab was immense, a true warrior who never gives in. (Unfortunately he will be suspended for next CL match.)

Bang on the money on both accounts.
