Ronaldo Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Against the poorer teams where it'll be more of a scrap I'd consider putting Williamson and Campbell in. Birmingham managed to do well with two taller, slower centre backs last season. No reason why we can't. Dann and Johnston are PL class, Williamson isn't.

Ronaldo Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 In all seriousness, Williamson is somewhat tidy and solid in the air, but not good enough with the ball at his feet and a very poor athlete. Even Taylor is a comfortably better option. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but I was hoping that his flat mate had a season ticket at St Andrews last season, and another two at the Ricoh Arena and Ninian Park during the 2008-09 season.

junkhead Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 If I was Hughton I'd try Colo as a DM in the friendlies.. He's good enough with the ball at his feet and isn't afraid to hit a direct pass.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 As said before, my first port of call would be to get Taylor to RB and give him a sustained run there. I know it's only on paper but Taylor--Colo--Campbell--Jose looks a good defence. The problem being the retention of possession in front of them, of course.

Nobody Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Perch should be right back btw. Unless he's shite, obviously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 How anyone can go for Taylor over Colo is beyond me. Taylor, like Simpson, is from the school of backing of defenders who are running at him, and just allows them to run all the way into the box! One of my biggest annoyances, and for that reason alone Colo everytime. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Colo's had one iffy season and one in which he's been our best player. Taylor hasn't had one single good season in my book. There's not a lot to compare anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 I have a lot of hope for Colo, fans at his previous clubs said when we signed him that he was poor in his first season then became a favourite. Hopefully he is just a player that takes a season to settle and adapt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Roger Kint Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Colo wasnt so great in the Wham/Blackburn/Everton games in September and those are just off the top of my head. People seem to link his good performance at OT and gloss over a fair few mistakes over the course of the season. We will have to wait and hope that last year has done him the world of good to adapt to the PL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
