Another massive game from Coloccini and I hope he's captain more often, the second goal was well deserved.

agreed. have to admit i had my worries about him having found hids level in the championship but he's really looked the part and more so far this season.

I've never doubted him for too long as he oozes class, he looks like a £10 million defender.

Has been very good recently. It always takes exotic players from slower leagues time to adjust in the PL. Collo is now the player we paid for and could ne the differance this season at the back. Plays some nice passes ocassionally as well. Dare I say it - cultured.

May I just cut n paste my thoughts from a post of 22nd Nov 2008.

 

Enrique is a decent efficient old style full back,ok his passing is a tad susspect but that can be worked on.He's a stopper and a decent dead ball taker from what I've heard.

Taylor,heart in the right place,still has those Bramblesque moments.Then again with a more robust midfield would the defence be under as much pressure?

I've stated before that if Colcocini was playin for Manure or another top 3 club that the fickle media scum would be masturbating over his every move.Jeeeeez the guy is sheer class,the best since we had a fitish young Woodgate ffs.Credit where credit is due ok.

 

'nuff said?

all that proves is that you couldn't/wouldn't see it when he was playing poorly.

He most certainly wasn't playing poorly at that time, tbh.

there were huge question marks over him at that time, then his form got worse.

Because of a sh*t poor,lack lustre midfield,poor team morale and a squad of mercenary money grabbers.

Then  theusual  crowd were on his back.

Like flies round shit.

Most of the name callers wouldn't realise footballing talent if it was(as has often)been placed in front of them.

ah it's good to see the old "he's my fave so i'll blame everyone else when he plays poorly" argument is still alive and well.

Tyne-Wear derby is big one for Coloccini

 

FABRICIO COLOCCINI has assured the Toon Army that the Tyne-Wear derby means just as much to Newcastle United’s foreign legion than it does to the club’s home grown players – if not more.

 

The fact that overseas stars like Emre, Albert Luque, Charles N’Zogbia and Nikos Dabizas have written their names into Geordie folklore on the back of success in the derby ding-dong is not lost on Coloccini.

 

And he paid the fixture the ultimate compliment by stating it is BIGGER than the fierce rivalry between Boca Juniors and River Plate in his native Argentina and on a par with Brazil v Argentina on the international stage.

 

Coloccini has not tasted derby victory in his two opening Tyne-Wear tussles with United, which came in the ill-fated 2008/09 campaign. But this time he wants to make sure. Coloccini told the Chronicle: “It means everything to us, and just as much to the English players, we know the game can make us into a hero.

 

“This is a very important game, but I don’t to make history in one goal against Sunderland. I want to write a history over a long period.

 

“But we know how important this game is, and we have to win it. We have to think only of the three points.

 

 

“When we played at Sunderland two years ago, our fans were more noisy than their fans, and that is why we have to win – for the team, so we can climb the table, and to give a present to the fans.

 

“It is similar between Boca Juniors and River, but here the people are more passionate, and it is a better spectacle. It’s different, because for Argentina-Brazil, you wear the flag but it is the same type of intensity and on a par with the tempo.”

 

Coloccini has become a darling of the Geordie faithful after a sticky start to his career on Tyneside.

 

Having settled in Newcastle, Coloccini loves the Tyneside lifestyle and says this is one of the most important games of his career.

 

He said: “This is the most important game to Newcastle fans.

 

“It is one of the most important games I have played for Newcastle because it means so much to the fans and to us.”

 

Last time out at St James’ Park, Coloccini left the field with the 40,000 Toon fans singing the now famous Coloccini song.

 

However, he said: “I hope I can score again, but I would prefer three points and not to score.

 

“The song is great, it’s very funny and I know what all of the words mean!

 

 

“But for me, it’s very emotional, because I understand it and they give me so much confidence.”

 

Yet while folklore intrigues the curly-mopped Coloccini, he says he is still fighting hard to become a United legend and shake off the tag of being part of the team that was relegated by replacing it with something more tasteful.

 

He said: “I know we could go down in the history of the club as the team that went down.

 

“But a lot of people who went down stayed and took the club back to the Premier League, including myself. I want to win a cup with Newcastle United now – that is my dream.

 

“I want to score against Sunderland too, but I want to make history by winning a cup in the long run.

 

“But first things first, let’s beat Sunderland.”
