Richards

Why are people against Micah playing tomorrow?

He's a better right back than Clichy. He's a better centre back than Boyata.

Sorry but he had not looked good at all pre-season and I would not be happy if he plays tomorrow ... He should have been doing extra work before pre-season but instead he looks bulkier and slower than ever ..... I dunno if he's taking poor advice but his career is on the line and for me losing some bulk should not be that difficult ....

Did you not see Clichy during pre-season? He looks better at right back than at left back dare I say, he was definitely one of the surprises of the summer.

I love Micah but he hasn't impressed me at all during pre-season.

I would prefer him to Boyata at CB

The papers are going by the fact that Zabaleta and Sagna out and Richards is the only other RB available. They probably have no idea that Clichy has been playing there or thought he was just filling in for afew pre season games. I think Clichy is a better full back then Richards, Richards has barely played in years let alone played well. Huge fan of Richards by the way but he has stagnated IMO he lacks the positional sense to play CB and doesn't have the pace or stamina levels to play RB for us. Maybe a loan so he can get game time but I believe his future is elsewhere unfortunately. I cant imagine he will be starting tomorrow can't see Rekik, Sinclair or Guidetti starting either as we seem to be trying to sell them and wont want to risk injury.

Why would we risk an injury prone player in a game that is more or less meaningless if we are about to sell him?

I agree, Clichy has looked very good in 2 or 3 frendlies, but IIRC last time he played there he was ripped apart by Fulham.

Micah has many years behind him and is a natural right back. When fit he can be a very good right back, and will show that at his next club.

lol sorry meant they would be leaving, rumour was PSV were close to a loan deal with Rekik. The others I listed would assume are being sold.
