No surprise in who and how reacted to my post. And then takes the moral high ground. Brilliant. You were the one who responded to my post. Literally all I wrote in response to that was "exhibit A", as in "here is an example of what I was just talking about" If you took that as mocking then I don't know what to tell you. You must get really offended reading this board. Edited January 3, 2016 by Stevo985 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a more than capable Premier League centre-half who was unfortunate with injuries. He was a liability and made awful blunders nearly every single game.

Stevo985 Posted January 3, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted January 3, 2016 Just now, Phumfeinz said: He was a liability and made awful blunders nearly every single game. That's a huge exaggeration. His last few games for Villa were poor, and that seems to be all that people remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Vlaar was OK but nothing special, the fact he ended up at AZ after being linked with Man Utd etc indicates he wasnt that highly thought of in this league. Think people liked Vlaar because he wasnt Collins or Dunne but he was nowhere near their quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calcifer Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Richards needs to be put back at RB if he throws his toys out the pram them ship him out! He is a poor CB his positional awareness is awful and its costing us big time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nnock1984 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Not a CB. Play him right back until the end of the season and then ship him out! We don't need playboys who can't take criticism! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Addressed to others - he was in no way 'shit', have a word with yourselves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguin Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Hutton doesn't help him by constantly playing like a winger, although he's useless at crossing, which leaves loads of space and Richards exposed. Him scoring the own goal came from their player getting acres of space on that side if I remember correctly, a move to right back and Okore/New experienced CB in the middle would benefit us greatly I think.

Cliffy Biro Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Hands down our worst signing in the summer, been so so disappointed with him. Goes down as the worst for me purely because i expected so much more but instead he's literally costing us a goal every game it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His family are from there so its probably to get his fitness levels back up. I doubt AZ is his level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumstopdogs Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Vlaar was an OK centre back for us but his form was poor when he left us which is what a lot of people will remember. Richards is a right back failing at centre back. The sooner Remi makes this change the better for all of us IMO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly not overly great but far better than the majority of players that have been turning out for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No he isnt, he is really inconsistent that I would say but on a free I think was good business. He struggling with crap CB partners. Lescott and clark are terrible cbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papillon Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Ron Vlaar was a great CB for us, but the injuries are ruining his career. He is a leader on the pitch and made us play like a unit. Micah Richards is a horrendous player and captain, a poor signing who should not be in the middle of our defense. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ismail-villa Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Vlaar was far from shit, we used to struggle when he was out of the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwj Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Anyone know more on this? "allegedly Richards doing impressions of him is the current rumour." https://twitter.com/shelley_ozzy/status/684069204031606789 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Allo Allo was last on TV when Micah Richards was about three years of age. I'd find it odd for him to be referencing it in any context, moreso at our manager's expense. Take the rumour with an extremely large grain of salt.

Shaw_nuff Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Everyone knows of allo allo, regardless of age. It's iconic, like dad's army. Though I've no idea why. I find it about as funny as syphilis. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
