Micah, when did it all go wrong?

Postby PeterParker » Thu Aug 20, 2015 7:53 pm

I am trying to find some excelent article that i read a thew days ago from TalkSport, but maybe they took it down. Anyway, it was a long article about the rebirth of Micah and the main argument behind that is that he became again a CB.

My question is this, would our lad had a different path if he would had been a CB like he started here, instead of a right back, which we all know, requires a different type of fitness.

What language is the thread title in? Useless with the ball at his feet I'm afraid. That's the real reason Micah didn't survive our fame

Didn't he start off as a forward?

Well, if the ref hadn't been biased towards Rag protecting Darmian, Micah certainly would have already scored with a header, or earned a penalty kick, for Villa.

Not sure I remember the same Micah, as you do, regarding his control of the ball...

Yes, i am looking on their site, but nothing yet. I was surprised too, if someone finds it, please post it. It was something like Micah Richards downfall and rebirth.

Please don't get me wrong. I'm really not trying to be a smart arse,but change 'went' ( past tense) to 'go' in the title.
It is just something that is really hard on the eyes.

I don't understand, are you showing us a picture of Micah making a slide tackle where he might or might not have won the ball or may or may not have ended up giving away a free kick as proof he has good ball control?

Sadly, no. It was a full analysis about his career so far. Very well made.

Good man , thumbs up.

Re Micah.

I am not sure it's gone wrong, he's doing well. He has been chosen as Captain and he has accepted it. Good luck to him ( except against City of course!).

I hope he does well, he seems like a nice guy who really feels at home with City.

Mase:
That 2nd photo is from the famous 1-6 wonder match, against the Rags! Like the rest of the team that day, Micah helped to keep the Rags away from the ball.

I'd like to remind everyone here that Micah wasn't let go and the managers wanted him to stay! Micah knew that he wasn't going to get enough playing time, while Zabs is fit.

Peter Parker:
Sorry that wasn't the article you wanted. I thought both of these were very interesting though

Also, Micah is already leading the stats, for all the new Villa players, so far...
