Title: Fearing for Gary Neville
Post by: Rooky9 on November 15, 2006, 07:27:44 PM
26 minutes in and I have seen enough to see the lad can play at this level.

Neville has done a great job for England over the last decade but I honestly feel that having a player like Richards at right back will improve the team greatly in the attacking sense without harming the defence at all....

The ball in from Joe Cole was made by the fact he fell over!

I dont like Neville but he is the last of my worries regarding how England are playing.

I completely disagree, gary neville is an excellent defender and provides some quality attacking play. Phil neville on the other hand is a prize donkey and if i see him chip the ball hopefully at the box just one more time in an england shirt i will cry.

Name me one bad game or obvious balls up gary neville has made while playing for england?

Micah Richards is a great prospect.

I agree - consistently solid.

I also agree as in my orginal post... but that is not what we have the propect (and current realisation of) here. We can have a right sided Ashley Cole, which is definatly not what Neville provides. With pace and stamina they will be able to provide width for 90minutes with no defencive side effects.  I can't see the downside of changing over now rather than keeping Nelville in to be at whatever age for the next two tourns when by that point we could have a 21 year old right back at his second major competition and with X caps under his belt.

Absolute no brainer IMHO!

I prefer the school of thought that sees the 18 yr old learn how to defend properly off the guy who has won everything, by being his understudy for a while at international level.
