Micah Richards

Look at everybody else close to that.

Thierry's record was 20.

Well, he's going to eclipse that, and that just shows you how good it is.

Goal involvement, eight goals, 16 assists.

Now, to create that many chances for teammates is one thing, but actually to make people score from them.

And he is just the best player in the country right now by a long way.

And when he plays, when he came off the pitch today, both of us, we stood up and applauded him.

That's how good he is.

It's not very often you do that when you watch an individual performance.

Yeah, he's up there.

It's all about player.

But just for me, as an individual player award.

Now, he probably won't win it because Liverpool have been so good because that's how it is.

But I'm just talking about individually.

He has been head and shoulders above people this season.

And the bigger picture as well for Man City, I think a lot's been said this last week or so about Manchester City and if they are to get the two-year ban, he's the one player they can't afford to lose.

All the rest of them, I think, you know, and I'll even say about Raheem Sterling, he's a fantastic player.

And if he were to say, like, I want to go, but he is the guy that sets the standards here.

And we said it, he's a modern day, he's the skulls, he's the person that you want to come and watch play football with.

And I also think, Mike, and I agree with you, it's no surprise.
