Mick Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 So relaxed on the ball, so confident in his own ability to knock it off anyone. Reads the game superbly as well. Best defender I've seen in Newcastle, tops Woodgate the way he is playing now. I'm not sure he tops Woodgate yet, he's getting close and at least he's usually injury free which makes him more valuable to us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Swift Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 It's probably the best performance by a CB in a b&w shirt that I've seen since Woodgate was strutting his stuff here. He's easily top 6 quality now, imo. Same with Jose. Both of them would start at Spurs, Liverpool and probably Arsenal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmonkey Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Woodgate was easily better imo. Faster, stronger, better reading, better positionally, cracking recovery tackle if he had to make it (something that Coloccini can't do unfortunately). Also a good leader at the back, certainly saw significant improvement in those around him when he played (Bramble/O'Brien in particular). Almost the perfect centreback when he peaked for us, and it needs to be remembered that there was a good reason why Leeds fans rated him as being the more naturally gifted defender out of him and Rio Ferdinand. Such a shame he was a crock. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 NEWCASTLE United defensive rock Fabricio Coloccini today insisted that the Magpies can fly higher than the Black Cats in the Premier League this season. Coloccini also dismissed Sunderland as “long ball merchants” as Newcastle knocked the ball around with style, with Joey Barton yet again instrumental for the Magpies. The former Deportivo la Coruna and AC Milan defender said: “They played too many long balls, and I think all the team played well, but we’re disappointed.
