Richards Fears Month On The Sidelines

Micah Richards believes he could be out of the team for as long as a month after suffering a hamstring injury, Richards had to be stretchered off only a few minutes into an England Under-21 game which we went on to win 4-0. The injury is to be assessed over the next couple of days, England Under-21 coach Stuart Pearce has said:

"He's got a hamstring problem and he's diagnosed himself as being out for four weeks - that's Dr Richards for you"

"That could be four days though, as that's him diagnosing himself!

"Let's hope for Manchester City's sake and the preparation in the summer that it's not too long."

If Richards is out for the next 4 weeks he will miss vital games in the league against Sunderland and Liverpool, also the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley against Manchester United. If he is indeed out of those games who would you prefer to see replace him at right back?

Boateng hasn't looked particularly solid there so maybe Zabaleta if he is back from Argentina, I hope he is fit sooner rather than later.
