Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Not wanting to piss all over the good news but been having a chat with a couple of mates and the debate arose that even if he stays he clearly doesn't want to be here and seems underwhelmed judging by the quotes about actually being here and why would we want a player who A, doesnt want to be here and B, who's performances on the field could be affected by this. A valid point but I was more of the thinking that Colo seems like a professional and would probably say that we would still get more assured performances from him than indeed Yanga-Mbiwa (who's still settling in) or any potential new CB to bed in also. Is anyone worried about this? Do you believe his performances may stagnate as time goes on? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raconteur Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Is anyone worried about this? Do you believe his performances may stagnate as time goes on? No, because even Coloccini at 50% effectiveness is superior to Mbiwa, Taylor or Williamson/new centre half/promoted young 'un. Sure, it's not ideal, but if your mates reckon him not being of 100% means better to play someone else and/or get rid, then get new mates... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 I don't there's any evidence he would perform less than 100%. If he's decided to stay I think we can trust that he'll be professional about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree but you know what will happen the first time he's not 100%, he'll be accused of not giving a shit. I’m sure the reception he was given after the Arsenal game will have made stopping easier for him. The fans could have slaughtered him but they didn’t, they did the opposite and things like that will make a difference, even if only a small one.

Skirge Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Pardew the key to keeping Coloccini at Newcastle United 26 Jun 2013 07:50 Alan Pardew is understood to have emerged as the key figure in convincing Fabricio Coloccini to continue leading the charge at Newcastle United next season Alan Pardew is understood to have emerged as the key figure in convincing Fabricio Coloccini to continue leading the charge at Newcastle United next season. The Chronicle understands the duo have remained in close contact over a summer of uncertainty on Tyneside. Coloccini went public a fortnight ago to state that he was returning to United for the new season, however, crucially Pardew’s has proved to be the deciding factor in the Argentine’s reasoning not to quit for family reasons. The ex-captain is well accustomed to the ways of new director of football Joe Kinnear after playing under him during his ill-fated managerial tenure. But there has been no contact between Kinnear and Coloccini at this stage. Indeed, Newcastle players were left just as shocked as fans as news of Kinnear’s appointment spread around the world after ChronicleLive broke the story 10 days ago. Yet despite anger amongst fans the dust is starting to settle behind the scenes and the former Wimbledon boss has assured Pardew that he won’t interfere behind the scenes with tactics or selection. That will be left solely to Pardew as he looks to turn the page after last term’s torrid season. He will also hold face to face meetings with Yohan Cabaye and Hatem Ben Arfa with both understood to be bemused by the mispronouncing of their names as “Yohan Kebab” and “Ben Arfi” during Kinnear’s radio rant last week. Coloccini though has always made his views on Pardew quite clear, and said: “Alan has always been a great support to me. “He has always shown confidence in me too. “Whenever I have needed some advice he has always been around to help me.” Pardew will have no hesitation in giving Coloccini the captain’s armband for the season ahead and the skipper’s return will be crucial in the dressing room when the Magpies regroup next month. The club have confirmed that Coloccini will return to the club’s training camp and that he Cheick Tiote, Yohan Cabaye, Mathieu Debuchy and Papiss Cisse will recommence training in mid-July after an extended 10-day break due to international duty. It means that United are likely to be without them for their opening fixture at Motherwell’s Fir Park on July 16. http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/alan-pardew-key-keeping-fabricio-4711674?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paully Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 “Colo made it very clear in the summer that he is coming back to play this season. “He really has the bit between his teeth. “He wants to play in the World Cup in Brazil not to mention Newcastle United’s season. “Me and him have had a lot of discussions about last year and they were very constructive I have to say. "He wants to come back, and he wants to lead us. He showed at the back end of last year how important he is to us. “When he played we looked a different team. “I was a little bit disappointed with some of the Press about that" (Colo's private problems). “It was a personal situation. It is difficult for that to play out in the Press as it did. “It was uncomfortable for him and for me. I still won’t talk about it because it is not fair on Colo. “I have spoken to him two or three times. “He’s due back a little bit later as I gave him a couple of extra days off. “He will be back on July 18. “He finished so late with Argentina this summer.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
