The College Dropout Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Damn. He and Krul are so crucial to our success. Step up, Yanga-Mbiwa. Wait, haven't you been telling us the last couple of days that he's been s**** this season? No! CD has merely pointed out that he's been sh*t in the air, sh*t decision making, sh*t positionally, doesn't want to be here, shadow of his former self, had his head turned, lack of heart. Apart from those minor flaws for a CB he's alright. First name on the team sheet for CD ! Well he's better than Williamson and was vital for Saylor's revival. For the last couple of season's has been among the best in the league. This year he's been poor. If he's poor he shouldn't be playing. It's not that simple. Until Mbiwa came along we definitely did not have the quality in reserve. If you have a Rolls-Royce that is not performing to its level do you pack it in for a Focus? No, you work to improve the Rolls current performance. That's the last resort. He's in bad form, let's recognise that and help him improve. Not ignore it. I wouldn't drop Cisse for Shola unless we where desperate and I think Cisse has been terrible. Shola just doesn't have the quality. Although Pardew was right to start Shola against Metalist.

The College Dropout Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I've already said Colo's far better than Williamson. But he hasn't been Colocinni good. In fact, he's been below standard all season for him. That's called under-performing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

durhamunigeordie Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 No. He did a bicycle kick on a freezing cold day in front of 52,000 people and then landed on his back, which we know he has problems with. He was then clearly in some discomfort straight after. Would have been much easier to have picked up a niggle in training. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, he's been below standard all season for him. That's called under-performing. Has Williamson cost us as many goals as Colo this season (in your opinion)? Probably. Williamson's problems run deep so it's a futile comparison. As a partnership there's been times where once could've bailed out the other and failed to do so. Stoke away the obvious one. Colo has the power to WIN us points. I'm certain had he not got injured at S'land we would have won. That's the potential of Colo. With Williamson it's more of a story of not dropping points.

Dave Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11095/8540673/ Alan Pardew is confident that Newcastle captain Fabricio Coloccini will be ready to return to the first team within two weeks. The Argentina defender was ruled out of Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Swansea with a back problem that will keep him sidelined for Thursday's Europa League tie against Anzhi Makhachala. The Newcastle boss will be forced to turn to Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa and Steven Taylor in the centre of his defence in Moscow. But Pardew hopes Coloccini's injury will not keep him out for long with the Magpies still too close to the Premier League relegation zone for comfort. "I don't think it's that worrying, but it is a back injury, so we have to be careful," Pardew said. "I think a couple of weeks." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

henke Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Shame, but it's a nice chance for Taylor and MYM to get used to playing together. Pretty much my feelings on the subject too. Don't get me wrong i'd rather have Coloccini in the side, but there's a silver lining here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
