Hmmmm … so Richards was a bit of a Ronaldo without the skills …..
Mark Hughes would have destroyed Richards on a football pitch. Hughes could seriously handle himself.
As an Evertonian who grew up in the 80's you've no idea Micha.
He should have been on next transfer window. Or never played sit on bench until his overpriced contract ran out. How disrespectful to a legend of the game. That's why Micah never achieved anything. Just mouth and laugh.
bullshit story
Micah Richards, who?! What an idiot.
'I'm always jolly I'm always happy'. No you're not you're always grumpy and miserable, Micah. 🙁
Micah is a legend in my eyes… lol
Micah thinks he was some great player like rio or Terry 🤣😅😅🤣😅😅🤣😅🤣
Who does Micha "jolly" Richards think he is?
Bang average player, who's only on as a pundit to make the numbers up..
I suspect that it was a bit deeper than that, more like a white male being disrespectful to a black man.
SPARKEY would absolutely destroy you
If you brag about being one of the better players it’s because your trying to convince others to think higher of you !! Shearer was holding back laughter!! What a pot noodle 😂
Micah Richard's in his prime or mark Hughes in his hahaha I'd put Hughes in my team now before Richard's in his prime )🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love Micah but I must’ve missed the games when he was so great lol
Micha is a big friendly giant and everyone knows it even him.
Over paid footballers all shite these days 😴 😒 🙄 role models to clowns 🤡
Mark hughes was and will always be in a different league to you on a football field,, you aren’t good enough to lick his boots
Laughing hyena
Everytime I see Micah Richards I always remember that the guy didn't even know what the Dell was. It's concerning If a guy who's spent his life as a professional footballer doesn't even know. I'd understand it more if in 10-15 years time a new pundit didn't know what it was. The point of these pundits is to provide insights to the game through their years of expertise. The Dell was a ground that was part of the era we grew up in. And he's older than me. Very basic common football knowledge that floored me when he had no idea what it was.
you done yourself no favours there micah LOL
Micah says he does or has done a lot and I'd imagine most of it is lies.
He had the potential to be a great wing back. One of England's best in fact. He got a series of injuries that ruined that so he didn't meet his potential.
Player power was fully established by then. It's a shame that Micah saw things the way he did at the time, being so conscious of the leverage he had. By his own admission he wasn't always a model pro, and his mentality is revealing here. His threat to destroy Hughes in front of the dressing room did all the damage anyway.
Wasn't this the same micah who was relegated with aston villa mark hughes had the last laugh hughes played for some of the biggest clubs in the world
Micah was a right back ..worst position there is and he thinks he's an actual legend
Micah Richards, a legend in his own Barber shop.
Micah Richards, aka the black Steven Seagal.
Sparky would absolutely chew him up and spit him out. Especially then before he was a juice head. Mark Hughes was known as a hard nut back when the game was filled with hard nuts. Richards was a skinny clown. I'd back a 50 year old Hughes over a 20 year old Richards all day long. I reckon he'd still tear him to bits now and he'll likely be in his 60's or near enough.
I swear when you listen to him speak, he's Roberto Carlos and Maldini rolled into one. He had a brief decent spell at City before they were the monster they are now, then spent the rest of his career warming benches. You have two legends of the game there with him, record breakers in their own ways, and him – an average at best moron. I'd ask why he's even a pundit, but it's abundantly clear why, same with Jenas. It ain't their footballing knowledge or past talent or trophy count that's for sure.
If the BBC really need to fill their quota remit, can't they get some black footballers that actually know the game, and were actually genuinely elite players themselves, someone like John Barnes. Barnes belongs there with players like Shearer and Lineker. Richards doesn't. Jenas definitely doesn't, but he at least comes across like he's got more intelligence than a muller fruit corner and doesn't pretend to have been a great footballer or a hard man.
If Jay Cartwright played football you'd get mics. Great entertainment still.
Micah did not come across well there. Basically blackmailing the coach and taking advantage of his shy nature
Cos i was one of the better players there.. the ego on Richards.
This is the problem with footballers. This guy would not get away with that in a 9 to 5 job. Shameful behavior.
So famous, I've never heard of him!
This is why micah never made it
Micah Richards would have been destroyed by Mark Hughes on a football pitch!
This video is comedy gold, the number of david brent quotes from micah is hilarious
The jolly behaviour and constant over the top laughter is all for the cameras. Micah Richards actually takes himself very seriously clearly…
