Guest Spark Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Well it wasn't a great clearance, but why comment on that and seemingly disregard a very good performance? Everyone else is saying how well he played and you wade in with, "well, he made one bad clearance in the game". It just seems very negative. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Correct me if I'm wrong but after givning the ball to Pinaar wasn't it him that went and retrieved the ball, making up for any form of error. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Is there a more technically gifted CB in the league? This guy is sheer class on the ball, it seems to me that when he gets a bit older a natural progression to DM would suit him a lot, he could pick out some passes from deep that's for sure.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I don't think we should worry about him playing any other positions. He's a class CB, leave it at that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Should Jonas how to play as winger today in 10 seconds, take on a man and score. Coloccini 2 goals - Jonas 1 goals in the premiership for NUFC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I don't know. Playing DM is more about strength in holding players off and composure. Pace isn't that important, especially if you are playing in a midfield three. A slow centreback (i.e. Sol) is a liability to the whole team as you cannot play a high line.

merlin Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Coloccini is the only player in the side who I under-rated after his first season - the guy has come back to beat most of his PL demons and has been excellent this season with the exception of the game at Bolton. He was instrumental in disheartening the Mackems last week, and was great again v Spurs, topping off his performance with a good goal ; I was more sorry for him than any of the others because if anyone deserved a win bonus yesterday, he did esp on his birthday ! Now showing why he was considered a 10m player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Iván Campo was a shit CB, amongst the worst I have seen wear the Spain shirt. Cult hero/laughingstock in here. People were amazed he could salvage a career as DM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
