II Wurzel II Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Another solid performance from Ribs, certainly got a bright future ahead of him....I just can't get round how GJ couldnt see the talent weve witnessed in the previous 2 games, really cant believe he hasn't featured this year despite getting really good reviews from his loan spells and U21 games...what a player !!!!!!

Red Jordi Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Really refreshing to see a defender who doesn't want to just lump it forward and is confident on the ball should be in from the start next season ... QUALITY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iWurzel Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Ribs was pure class tonight. Looked like a seasoned pro the way he moved the ball. Quality with the ball at his feet and assured in his position. Very refreshing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GJ had said publicly before that he rated Ribs, just did not think he was ready. At the moment, it is looking like he was wrong - he is ready. Cracking perfrormance.

Robbored Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Ribeiro is a natural born footballer and why Johnson didn't consider him 'ready ' for the Championship will always remain a mystery. The lad was a class act tonight, very cultured, calm, pacy, strong and confident and it was clear to everyone that he has a very promising future ahead of him. I predict that with the right move to the PL that this lad will play for England at some point. I've said tha once before about a City player - Andy Cole. I think he has the promise to be a great player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Ian M Posted March 23, 2010 Admin Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 How many times did Ribs come to Carey's rescue? Who was the player playing his 2nd game at this level & who was the player with nigh on 600 appearances under his belt? As the second half wore on Ribs was visibly getting more and more confident culminating in the lovely slide rule pass which Maynard won the penalty from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First half was same old - but I thought the whole team played brilliant in the 2nd half - including the defence. The only goal they scored in the 2nd half was a very good goal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Jesus. He has barely played (and should I remind you that in the last two games the defence have leaked 5 goals) and your predicting him to be one of the countries top players. He is\will be a good player, but lets not get carried away I know its early in his career and he's a young lad but he has something about him that stands out above the rest. Something that I've not seen in a City player for almost 20 years. Its a just a feeling. Just mark my words. This lad will play at the highest level.

Donald Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 PURE CLASS from Ribeiro, not sure if he deserved MOM over Hartley, but glad he won it, he's been a breath of fresh air to the team and if I was Bradley Orr, I'd be VERY CONCERNED about keeping my place in the team. The lad has everything and will be in the prem before long without doubt. I do find it embrassing and says alot about Johnson's judgement that he didn't feel that Riberio was ready. Over the last 2 games he's possibly been our best player. Fair play to the lad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nogbad the Bad Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Really refreshing to see a defender who doesn't want to just lump it forward and is confident on the ball You could almost see Ribeiro's confidence rising tonight. Having saved Carey's bacon a couple of times in the first half it's as though he thought, "Right, I'm not only feeling comfortable at this level, I'm capable of really affecting this game." He then surged through the Barnsley team with ease on more than one occasion, the most notable run leading to the penalty. He's thrown down the gauntlet for others to usurp him now, and if he can keep up tonights form there's no chance of that happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilksy Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 He was good against Newcastle and rightly got man of the match tonight. He's waited patiently, and has done really well when given the opportunity to play. I know we are short of defenders, but must agree with a few of the other posts, alot of credit has to be given to Millen for selecting him.
