Manchester City<\/a> defender Micah Richards<\/a> is ready to sleep in an oxygen chamber in order to be fit for his side’s FA Cup semi-final clash with Manchester United<\/a> on April 16.<\/p>\n

The powerful defender pulled his hamstring whilst on international duty with the England under-21’s against Denmark last Thursday and feared that he would be missing for the match against United.<\/p>\n

Richards is set to undergo a scan today to find out the full extent of the injury and is willing to do whatever it takes to be fit to take on the Premier League leaders.<\/p>\n

“I will do anything and everything to make that game” said Richards, according to the Mirror<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI knew straight away what I had done because I heard the dreaded \u2018ping\u2019. It is a bit sore but I\u2019m hoping it is not too bad.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome of the other lads have used an oxygen tent to help them recover more quickly from injuries so I am willing to give it a go. I will sleep in the thing if necessary. I want to be available for that game against United. It is going to be a great occasion.” <\/em><\/p>\n
