Kid Dynamite 5996 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 he's a young lad in a position that gets alot of scruitiny cos of how important a good centre back is . cant be england under 21 captain cos of luck , he's one of the best of his age group .playing in our back 4 these past few seasons cant have been helpfull either . Exactly mate, hes probably the one fucking decent player we have at the club and people are slating him. Pick me a better CB aged 21 and under in the premiership? There isnt one. Nuff siad tbh Micah Richards. The same Richards that just held City to ransom over a £75kpw contract? Ive watched him a few times this season and hes far from infallible. Hes made plenty of mistakes, hence Upson and Brown being chosen ahead of him for the full england team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 5996 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Except he isnt a better CB than Taylor. Hes on a par. Just cos Hansen licks his balls om MOTD. Any Man city fan will tell you hes far from perfect. And while we are on the subject, since when did Faye become this world beater? Ive seen him have 2 or 3 decent games at CB. Much like Cacapa and Rozenhal both did at the start of the season. Chelsea deemed Ben Haim the better player and weve seen what happened to him. I give him a run of 5 games at CB before hes found out as the clogger he really is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alex Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Richards is better imo. At CB and RB. No doubt about that in my mind. More potential too since he is quicker than more powerful imo. Not saying he doesn't drop clangers but his pace gets him out of trouble and he's got less first team experience than Taylor too. He does benefit from having Dunne alongside him though. But put it this way, Richards would command a far bigger transfer fee and would attract far more interest from the 'big four' and probably from abroad too. He's already broken into the England team and looked the part too. As for Faye, he may not be a 'world beater' but he's big, strong, fast and can mark and is good in the air. He looks our best CB to me. He's also a different type of CB to Rozenhal and Cacapa who are more sweepers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lack of better CB of the same age doesn't suddenly make Taylor class though. Neither does captaining the U21s. It's a great honour for him no doubt, but have you seen the last squad?

Guest alex Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Wheater looks handy. Aye, he's probably better than Taylor. You can have that one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden McGroin 4960 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 But we don't see Wheater day in day out or Richards for that matter. I'm sure they have faults as well just that we they aren't scrutinized so closely. The fact that Taylor is rated by his peers tells its own story.

Howay 12480 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 He's a decent centre back and he probably wont improve loads unless he gets a good centre back alongside him he does have tenancies to do some pretty bizarre stuff but generally is quite dependable. Out of him and Richards it is without doubt Richards that is the better player, he's quicker, stronger, more composed, better tackler, better athlete just all round a better player.
