Richards

[Theo555]

He has had some stick recently - but today I thought he was just behind zabaleta in man of the match - that was the old Micah we love - battling, getting stuck in - hopefully being dropped has given him that kick up the arse he needed

Just got back from the game. I thought Richards and Zabaleta were outstanding. Kompany, Onouha and Bridge also played very well. The result was more important than the performance today.

We looked solid at the back apart from defending corners, I thought.

 

[TaylorWill07]

agreed
he was class.

Kompany was immense a cb along with Onuoha, Hope we stick with them now and Richards a Rb.

 

[Biggsy1]

Yeah I did notice Richards putting in a proper shift for once, good on him. Couldn't split Kompany & Zabi for MOM today.

Centre half - my arse!

Finally, our defence is getting praise from bluemoon

 

[allblues09]

Agreed, good work by all of the back. Even Dunny until he lost the plot, which was unexcusable.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Much more solid performance from all those at the back including St. Micah. Kompany was solid at CB and I was delighted Zab got the goal.

 

[Sharp]

He works harder when in his favourite position.
