Richards made his 200th appearance on Sat, phenomenal for a 22yr old, just want to throw it out there and see if people agree whether he's the best RB in the league?
For me I think he's gone to another level under Mancini, he is the complete package going forward (5 assists) and the complete package when defending (marked Bale, Nani, Young out of the game).
He has amazing attributes, pace, power, crossing, jumping, tacking, technique.. His positioning is very good thanks to Mancini, this was always what he was criticised about before.
It's a joke he isn't first choice for England, Smalling, Jones and Walker can't hold a candle to Richards.
Anyway, anyone else share the same opinion?
Richards, best RB in the PL?

Eboue is the best right back in the league. He's so good, he's doing it all the way from Turkey.

I heard Eboue can never get caught out of position because he's omnipresent.

I rated Richards the first season he started out. He's made the most of his potential and I agree he should be first choice for england. He is the best English RB, not sure about the whole league

I think this is a myth too !
Of course, perhaps the believe that Eboue is still providing cover at RB is why Arsenals defense is so carp this season.

Yeah probably Sagna for me as well... Ivanovic and Rafael were good there last season as well...

Sagna is the best RB in the league.

I notice Ricahrds wasn't trusted against Villareal.
