Kanj Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I'm going to convince myself that I just didn't see him play as MOTM worthy as he did those run of games b/c it's gutting to see a player who basically finally resemebled what we lacked in terms of physicality and presence at the center of our midfield in years... Good luck to him, this kid came back and bossed Yaya/City and Liverpool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does that happen?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Its a shame we decided to sell him, he looked like such a player in his appearances last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Logic Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Dumps Abeid, plays Obertan. One might think his assesment of players is a little superficial. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Dumps Abeid, plays Obertan. One might think his assesment of players is a little superficial. I sort of agree, but TBF they are completely different positions and requirements/competition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPL Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Not too unhappy about the decision, we have many players who can play in his position already. Gives Anita a better chance of getting games who I think is the better player anyway. Hopefully we can get at least one LB or CB in before the window shuts, although he probably sees Haidara/Dummett fighting for LB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Not massively arsed, but still wish we'd seen some more of him after that brief spell last season. Just remembered the whole of N-O harassing him on fb when he first joined too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sima Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Quite sad to see him go as he showed some promise last season. We seem to have a load of bang-average players jostling for 2 CM positions so I suppose getting rid of one of them isn't bad although he isn't the one I'd have chosen.

Hanshithispantz Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Urgh, I'd have been massively suprised if he wasn't a better fit in centre mid than Anita and Colback. Not a chance McClaren even knows his ability either given that he's started the first 2 games here with Obertan ahead of Perez and Aarons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenige Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Always looked a bit nervous when he played for us, understandably as he never got close to being first choice. Had a cracking run of a few games which made a lot of us think he's more than just an average midfielder. Thank at a club where he's treated like he belongs he's got a much better chance of being a bloody good footballer. Good luck to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put on Twitter that I'd rather he left than Abeid and someone quoted me and put "Eh??", do I watch a different Jack Colback to everyone else? Cos he signed for us and wound the mackems up?!? Seems a real shame, and very unfair, the Abeid never really got given a fair chance after that run of form last season, whereas lerkal lad Jack seems to be the first name on the team-sheet regardless. Best of luck to the lad, looking forward to watching him in the CL (if they have qualified this year, can't be arsed to check.) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
