What a talent Micah Richards was. Easy to forget now just how impressive he was when he first came through. In an alternate universe somewhere he goes on to get a century of international caps.
Can’t remember what came first - us moving him to centre-half, him piling on too much muscle, the pile-on from England fans and the tabloids, or the niggling injuries but he had absolutely everything bar positional experience i think.
A bit like Rooney he was physically so mature and strong for his age, unbelievably quick, chipped in with goals and assists, good on the ball, great drive and attitude (until the injuries).
