Richards defends Savic

Exeter Blue I am here said:
This is getting tiresome. This is a forum designed for comment on a whole range of issues including player performance. Stating that Savic is not ready for this level of football (as amply demonstrated by 3 or 4 shockingly poor showings) is not "having a go at the lad" or "abusing him", it's simple statement of fact. The long and the short of it is he's been piss poor. Doesn't mean we hate him, doesn't mean we're gonna boo him on match days, doesn't mean we aren't rooting for him to improve, doesn't make people who air such views on here, rags. I for one hope he comes good and turns out to be a City star for years to come, but right now he's a million miles out of his depth.


Constructive critisism is fine. I think most are a bit miffed at the "he is shit, sell him" meltdown stuff if any player makes a mistake.
That's the stuff that makes me cringe anyway.
 
Sorry, hate to have to say this, feel bad, but, bottom line is if you're own players don't trust you, when they pass the ball to you, you probably ain't gonna play for the club ever again.
-- do you think slimy
Ferguson would stick by him......?


--er......no.

Looks like Balotelli to me...
 
It was a big game. But they're all big games at the moment. He'd also played every minute of the carling cup campaign until last night. That's the competition he should have started and only that. He was needed and now he can go back on the bench.

When you are 21 you are not a kid can we stop pretending Savic is 16 he is an adult

In footballing terms that's exactly what he is, how many Prem teams give regular starts to 21 year old centre-backs other than when injuries/suspensions dictate that they have to (e.g.the rags when Wio and Vidic are out).
 
By saying "Oh, he's only young, it's fine" is basically like saying let's play a 6 year old because it doesn't matter how good he is, he's still young so it doesn't matter. Yes Savic is a young, inexperienced footballer, but it doesn't take away the fact he isn't any good. He has been awful and that's a problem. Thank god Vinny is back.
