What's it all about and when will he be rumbled for being the obvioulsy average player that he is?
From Wigan to England via a Red shirt - you coudn't make it up. Wait until the derby and Dejong does him...

i agree 100%.
he will get found out, 2 months ago he was in and out of 21s team during championships and all of a sudden hes in senior squad?? Also smalling ahead of richards at right back??hes only played about 10 games there in his career its a joke.
Cleverly did nothing at wigan last season barely got a game, was always been taken off and now hes a world beater, it wont last...

He's young, english & a rag, which makes him potentially world class by default. Still better than Henderson tbf, don't see what's so special about that one.

That is a complete disgrace. I don't know what Richards has done to piss Capello off but there's no way on earth Smalling is a better right back than him, nor is he in better form. Complete joke.

He's not starting is he?
Fucks me right off this. If the journo's are correct then Smalling (18 decent days) will start ahead of Micah (18 great months).

He was wank in Euro U21, Smalling and Jones´arses fell out when the Czechs actually had to attack last 15 mins. Same old case of Ferguscum doing the old "bigging up" routine till they actually start believing the lie. That´s how he gets an extra 15/20 % out of average players. No chance with Postman Pat
I actually prefer City players not to play and remain fit and raring to go - I´ll be watching tonight almost out of a sense of duty and nothing more

If that happens it's a joke. Capello really doesn't like Micah for some reason. Maybe he should actually, you know, WATCH HIM PLAY instead of sending some lieutenant on an afternoon's jolly. But what do I know?

Cleverly not starting but smalling is in ahead of Richards.
Micah won't get a look in until capello leaves. Capello has no intention of ever playing him

Genuinely gutted for him. He deserved to play tonight.
Micah's too switched on and I sense that England means too much to him to chuck the toys around but he would be well within his rights to tell Capello to fuck right off.
It really is a disgraceful decision.

Micah will get his chance and it looks like Capello is pandering to Taggart's rants. Maybe Mancini has asked him to not play Micah, I don't know.
Cleverley, I just don't get what all the fuss is about, he's average at best.

Can't stand our fans attitude sometimes of assuming every United player is shite. Having watched him at Wigan, Cleverley is a very tricky, decent prospect. He's also had a great start to the season.

Hate to admit it but BRF is spot on here. I have been impressed so far. That said, I expect any hard player will run him into the ground.

I don't see what you 2 are seeing, to be honest. I'll save judgement until at least mid-season.

Last season he played very well in a very average Wigan side. He reminds me of a young Joe Cole, very tricky and good on the ball. He's far from the finished article but certainly has potential. I just wish our fans would stop saying he's shit because he's a United player.

If he played so well last season why didn't he get in th squad? It's an insult to clubs like Blackburn and Wigan that these players only get capped when they move/go back to United

What does last season matter? It is current form. Look it is not like there are a lot of exciting other options, and based on recent performance, give him a shot, can't be any worse off.

When he plays for England, he's an England player, not a United one. Some people need to get over themselves.

If he was as good last season in a shite Wigan squad surely that warrants a call up more than playing well in a top team like united?
