Thespence Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Most people wish he'd stay 23, that way they could excuse all of his errors. I have to say, it's amusing how you excuse Coloccini's errors yet jump on Taylor's. I wouldn't say there was much between them, and as I said earlier I hope they can form a decent partnership should we keep both. Taylor had 5 years in the premiership man. Coloccini had 1 behind one of the worst midfields the division will ever see. He also had to partner Cacapa every now & again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the other is supposedly a £10m-rated international, pretty much the finished article yet made plenty mistakes of his own. Yet you excuse one and not the other. As I said, I don't have a particular preference, it just makes me laugh the lengths you'll go to criticise Taylor whilst at the same time defending Coloccini - even if both were as good or bad as each other.

Sorry, thought you meant Taylor, who didn't start with Cacapa very often. Cacapa and Coloccini started twice or maybe 3 times together, including the Everton 2-2.

Dr.Spaceman Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 I'd actually keep Coloccini. I don't see us getting anyone better in our situation. Be nice to sign John Terry but I just can't see it happening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 it would be interesting to see how colccini performs in the prem and see if last season was a settling in thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatwax Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Colo took a year or so to settle with Depor, the fans said this to us on their forum at the time. People that watched La Liga and were familiar with him said this at the time. He had a pretty rubbish first season, but I can't really think of any other players that didn't have a rubbish one with us... hence the relegation. Also having 3 or so managers in a season can't be the most helpful transition. He's coming alright now about a year on... the technical side and speed is way below par in this league but it's more physical and Colo is slowly adapting well. Always rated him although I did struggle to defend him a fair few times last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 it would be interesting to see how colccini performs in the prem and see if last season was a settling in thing. If he'd been completely out of his depth all season, I wouldn't harbour much hope, but from my view he looked every inch the international centreback that we thought we were getting at the beginning, but as the games piled up and the results/chaos surrounding the club worsened, he began to look like someone who had played every minute of every game. Once the crowd had him down as a 'flop' then there was really no way back for him last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElDiablo Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 I'd have loved to have seen him next to Faye, I think against the bigger strikers he struggles, but with the smaller technical ones he's very good. Problem was last season he always got turned far too easily and didn't have the pace to get back. When we defend deep he is at his best imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 I worry that if he had a few bad games in the prem, then the crowd would get on his back very quickly and he would lose his confidence again. However, it would be ashame to replace a player who has built up alot of confidence and understanding in the last four months for someone who may not be any better.

olliemort Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Would be a very annoying to see us sell our most improved player.Looking back now on last season now Is there any real surprise that he didnt settle in with the state the club was in.When you look at other foreign players now at other clubs alot of the time they mightened have a great first season but improve after that,e.g Patrice Evra.

buzza Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 I would bet my bottom dollar that fat ash will cash in on him this january and probably jonas aswell. They are both high earners and could get him some wedge. I am still dubious about the times colo gets turned when he's close to his man, doesn't strike me as international class at all despite th fact he has been a million times better this season than last (are teams a million times worse in th wcdhgccdw?).

Stifler Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Let him go, and get Kilgallon in, we can't afford his wages, and even though he's got better this season, I still don't know weather or not he would be good enough for the Premiership.
