Fabricio Coloccini signed from Deportivo La Coruña on 5 year deal


Recommended Posts

He can play DM but I think he is wanted as a CB more, we shall see though.

 

I'd have this as the 1st team when fully fit. We need Butt as backup only. Shite season last season, hasn't got the legs and is on a fast downhill spiral. Would like to see Milner in the centre, give him a chance there, is a good player but his lack of pace is effecting him in bad ways down the wings.

 

----------Martins----Owen---------

 

----------------Milner----------------

 

Zoggy------------------------Jonas

 

----------------Faye-----------------

 

Enrique--Taylor--Coloccini--Beye

 

---------------Given------------------

Ruined by Milner sadly.

Wouldn't it make more sense to switch Owen and Milner?

 

That is a lot of reliance on Milner being able to feed Martins and Owen... not sure if he can do it.

He's never played DM, he plays center back or right back.

 

He's argentinian. That means he can play in midfield as he is a cultured footballer by default.

 

He is also a lazy cunt who doesn't like us and wishes AIDS on all of our fans.

I think he could, he's a strong passer, let down by the positions he gets himself in due to the lack of pace. I reckon with him in the centre his passing would instantly become a lot more accurate and effective, he has much more options and angles in that position than out on the wing running to the line.

Get a decent AM in there though and that looks, on paper, a pretty decent first 11. If I had my way I'd get a DM in too and have Faye take Taylor's place.

That would be ideal for sure.

 

If that happens and we remain relatively injury free then that's a top 8 team right there.

same back four as TT

 

bit like robsons "robert" formation a way (one "winger")...fluid, martins working the right channel zog the left...owen floating about ala last season

 

makes sense to me to crowbar in the people who can produce the most, and milner doesn't fit into that category

Have a look at the thread title.
