  1. People are upset he watches the game from the stands? Why?  :lol:

     

    His right hand man is on the ground, and seemed very involved, so they have two perspectives.

     

    I actually loved where he was sitting. I would do the same! Everytime Obertan messed up, I hope he swore loudly enough for Mike to hear!

  2. Hugely encouraged that Wijnaldum was taking set pieces yesterday as well.

     

    Makes this man's position less bullet proof. Was worried when it seemed he was solely responsible for them in pre-season.

     

    Wijnaldum's set-pieces were quite poor though in the main.

     

    (black - check)

    (forrin - check)

    (criticism - check)

     

     

    Don't care. No worse than Colback's.

     

    Just don't want any excuses for keeping Colback in the team.

  3. He actually had one of the best games I've seen him play yesterday, can't remember any outlandish mistakes apart from his positioning before the situation where he had to pull someone back.

     

    He reminds me of Nicky Butt plays it safe all game and does a couple of blocks and is seen as a MOTM.

     

    Every time he gets the ball he does about 3 ball rolls maybe changes direction 3/4 times then passes it 10 yard sideways. He needs to be 2 steps further a head and know where to pass as he receives the ball.

     

    This post is as damning of the man as any. This form a supporter of his.

  4. Still waiting for an example of one forward pass from Colback.

     

    Even McClaren was urging him to switch play late in the game when he kept passing it to the left side after it had become congested.

     

    The guy doesn't use the ball with any intelligence at all. He's not thinking about what he's doing at all.

     

    What a stupid comment. If he wasn't thinking about what he's doing, he'd gave the ball away all the time!

     

     

     

    There's no way I am responding to this. You're ridiculous.  :lol:

  6. I wish Colback would get rid of the ball a bit quicker like. Yesterday he wasted time looking around before inevitably playing the simple pass. He should just take one or two touches and then play the simple pass

     

    Apparently it makes no difference that he slows down play only to then pass it back to a defender or the midfielder right beside him.

     

    It's allegedly exactly what Anita does also. They're one and the same.

     

    Bullshit.

  7. I noticed three things this guy did yesterday. The foul on Mane and the two blocks at the end.

     

    Can someone please let me know where he was the remainder of the game? Thanks.

     

    The comparison to Anita makes me sick. Anita constantly made himself available for the ball to start off moves from the back, and constantly pressed and harried the opposition to good effect, without stupid fouls.

     

    I genuinely don't understand what people are watching when they compare the two. But it's okay, we're playing Swansea next. Let's see if the improved build up play we all saw yesterday is still evident if Anita has to miss out.

     

    Bloody ridiculous s*** man.

     

    Your first point is pretty f***ing stupid. If you only judge players by highlight reel contributions then sure, that was his performance. But if you conveniently ignore every other small contribution then hey, it fits the narrative.

     

    Colback is supposed to be Alan Smith, Nicky Butt. The typical clogger who can't control a ball and spends most of the game trying to win back posession from his own giveaways.

     

    Anita is supposed to be Phillip Cocu, Daley Blind. The super technical DM who lives between his own centre-backs and does nothing other than 'play the right way'.

     

    The reality is that both players are a hell of a lot f***ing similar than their stereotypes and do predominantly the same job in a midfield.

     

    My first point is in fact not stupid, because I watched the whole game and saw none of these other little contributions he made.

     

    This whole thing is really laughable to me. We'll see what happens Saturday if Anita sits out.

     

    Bloody ridiculous.

  9. Yeah Haidara did a lot of terrible things yesterday. I could hardly believe what I was seeing some of the time.

     

    He certainly didn't make Obertan's life easier ont hat side either!

     

    We can't have both of those on the same time, as both need someone stronger and more authoritative to play with.

     

    E.g. Obertan with Janmaat, and Sissoko with Haidara. However I want Sissoko to stick to one spot this year and really master it, so we really shouldn't be swapping his side for the sake of Gabriel Obertan.

  10. Was so hyped up when he came on. Thank a God it wasn't a red  :lol:

     

    Still want him starting. Want him on the pitch with Wijnaldum. His presence and hold up play look very good.

     

    How do I choose which?

     

    This tapatalk thing is grotesque.
