Ronaldo Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 He gets MOTM when there's no stand-out because of his work ethic. No harm in it, but it's fucking lazy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Colo (and sometimes Jonas) would win MOTM every week pretty much if we abandoned all expectations of what we know players to do for us and looked at it objectively. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 He gets MOTM when there's no stand-out because of his work ethic. No harm in it, but it's fucking lazy. He was my MOTM because i thought he was our best player over the course of the game. Cabaye's a competitor cos he was the matchwinner, and Colo had a good game but came out too quickly on a few occasions in the first half. It wasn't his most attacking performance, but Jonas didn't put a foot wrong up and down the wing tbh. Constantly offered himself, ran at players and won possession back. It was a game tailor-made for his best attributes, and that showed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I must just miss it. Just looked like another Jonas performance with little end product. I wonder if some people just praise him no matter what. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Immense. Creating chances and playing "heads up" football. For me, he has shed the "no end product" tag completely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 So Colo performs fantastically for over a season in the PL and doesn't get a look in. Jonas actually improves for us and gets kicked out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Selfish part of me is glad the superstar gangster Geordie that is Jonas gets a rest. The two Argies are definitely the first two names on the teamsheet for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 The Argentine selection policy is madly inconsistent, and that's being kind. Haven't they used about 1000 players in the last year? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't they used about 1000 players in the last year? Down to only picking 'local' players for some games rather than ferry over the Euro boys iirc. Hardly a huge shock he isnt picked tbh, they have plenty of good players to pick from. Colo is a much bigger surprise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 The Argentine selection policy is madly inconsistent, and that's being kind. Haven't they used about 1000 players in the last year? Argentina have effectively had 3 national teams in the past year. The one that played in the Copa America, the one that played in high money friendlies prior to the Copa America but weren't in the Copa squad and the domestic/South American based only players squad. He hasn't been getting a look in anyway when he's been in the squad so not the end of the world for him not to go all the way over there.

They have options but I wouldn't call it a wealth. Most of their centre backs are firmly in the decent but not class category, certainly not way ahead of Colo. Demechelis, Burdisso and Fernandez are no world beaters. Even Otamendi isn't in this time for some reason. I would imagine his main problem is, like a lot of South Americans who leave early, he has little profile back home in Argentina and therefore isn't on the radar much plus the insularlism that occurs within Argie fans where they'd prefer to see someone who plays in the Primera ahead of someone abroad.

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Sabella should be sacked immediately if he thinks Demichelis is anywhere near Colo. They should change his name to the Spanish equivalent of "mild incompetence". Very poor player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
