Dokko Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 I rate Yanga-Mbiwa higher at this point and are more concerned with his with his progress and happiness than Colo's. Still, he has been fine the last few matches. Not overly dominant or assured by any means, but only one goals allowed in each and he's helped cut out weak attacking sides and provided a platform for relative comfort. If he sits out for an extended period, yes. As it is a rest to take it all in isn't a bad thing. Over a longer period of time it has to be Colo sacrificed over Mbiwa simply down to his age and wantaway status. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Wife spilling shit on twitter. Why? I really don't get that? Why would you want to reveal personal stuff like that to strangers on the internet. Like saying it to her friends etc fair enough but putting it on twitter when you know you're husband is a well known sports star around the world is crazy. Surely puts into question playing Colo at the moment while this is all going on. Not sure how he can be fully focused on his football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Newcastle braced for fresh Coloccini exit bid after 'frightened' wife posts emotional tweets aimed at defender By COLIN YOUNG PUBLISHED: 18:26, 2 December 2013 | UPDATED: 18:26, 2 December 2013 0 View comments Newcastle United look set to face another winter battle to hold on to captain Fabricio Coloccini after his wife posted a series of heartfelt messages on Twitter, revealing why she and the couple’s children have returned to Argentina. Natalia Coloccini has sent a number of messages in Spanish, apparently aimed at her husband, indicating life in England turned sour for her and her family. She is believed to be in Argentina now. Last year the Argentina defender rocked Newcastle with the news he wanted to return to South America for 'personal reasons’. But his attempt to re-join boyhood club San Lorenzo was blocked by manager Alan Pardew and owner Mike Ashley and Coloccini returned to Tyneside after a brief spell in Buenos Aires. Wantaway? Newcastle United defender Fabricio Coloccini has rarely appeared settled on Tyneside Wantaway? Newcastle United defender Fabricio Coloccini has rarely appeared settled on Tyneside The 31-year-old central defender, who has just returned to the Newcastle first team after a short spell out with hamstring injury picked up on international duty last month, will again face questions about his Newcastle future after his wife opened her heart on Twitter. Last week Coloccini told the Argentine media he would still like to return to the country, which was dismissed by Pardew as mischief-making. And in a series of emotional tweets, which also feature photographs of the couple in happier times, she hints at the reasons behind her decision to leave England with their two children. Some of the tweets from Natalia Coloccini are aimed at her husband’s father Osvaldo, who works for San Lorenzo, but others appear to be directed at the player himself.

Her most recent tweet says: 'These are my wings, just have to fly, let go of things that no longer belong to you. 'My heart is hanging from your hands.' Another says: 'I love him even though I know I have to forget him I’m frightened to think about life without him, so many years good or bad I cannot change them.' More...

Theregulars Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Leadership. His relationships outside of the club don't impact what kind of leader he is on the field; at least in my opinion. What did you make of Shearer as club captain, having booted Lennon in the head, or elbowed Materazzi and received a suspension in a crucial group game? Did you say anything when Tiote was stand-in captain after he was done for driving without a licence and whatnot? (Genuine question, I don't know if you did). The point is, he's been a really solid captain for us for a while. I agree with you to some extent that he's fading a bit with age/injury; and it's annoying that he wants to go home, but i am only annoyed because I love the guy and he's an NUFC hero in my opinion. You've got to admit, he's played pretty well through what is obviously a pretty rough patch in his personal life. If your argument is we should ship him because his personal life is in the way, I can see the merits of that opinion. As a comparison, I love my job, but if my girlfriend (not even my wife) moved back home to Germany, I'd have to seriously consider going with her.

Skirge Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 When the club Captain is clear about wanting to leave then that will have some kind of impact on the squad, although I have never thought of Colo as a leader type Captain. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would reckon the other players probably have some sympathy for his situation; I think if you are a normal person you probably can simultaneously think he's a knob for cocking up his marriage but still feel bad at the fact he's evidently unhappy about it. It sucks that this is what's happening; ideally he just carries on being the Titan he has been for us. But life doesn't work that way. I also reckon the stuff in the argentine media is totally overblown. I don't think the way he's handled it has been that bad - put yourself in that exact situation, what would you do? Especially where other people leak something you want kept private. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 When the club Captain is clear about wanting to leave then that will have some kind of impact on the squad, although I have never thought of Colo as a leader type Captain. I doubt him wanting away will have any negative effect if his personal life is as bad as it seems to be, I'm sure the other players will understand. I'm not sure I would like to be thousands of miles away from my family and he deserves loads of credit for sticking with us if things are as bad as they look.

Taking things at face value, I hope we can come to some agreement with him at the end of the season and send him back home on loan to see if he can sort his family out and repair his marriage.

I'm not bothered how they acted, his dad works for them so they probably didn't act as well as they should or would normally have acted. They knew the situation and were in with the chance of getting a very good footballer for nothing, we would have done the same if the positions were reversed.

Lotus Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Club captain back home on loan at 32. Inspired. No doubt Mick will want us to retire the armband till he comes back. Dude....it's his family, man. If true that's hard for him to take, even if it was his mistakes that led to it. I wouldn't be able to concentrate if my girls were the other side of the world and my marriage was looking really moody. I'd NEED to be there to do what i could to fix things. Nothing comes before your kids, nothing. And a very close second is your wife and mother to your brood. You have to be there for them. Got to. If it's his wayward behaviour that has led to the split i still wouldn't judge him. It's easy to judge people when you haven't faced exactly the same temptations as them.

Skirge Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I don't care about his personal life, its nothing to do with me ALL I care about if the club and the players we have who want to be here. Lets face it he didn't stay because of loyalty or any other decent human quality, he stayed because he had to as we were not prepared to just release him for free. As long as he is here we will have this shit every transfer window, as much as I understand and agree with the clubs stance over this I don't agree that he should remain Captain or keep out another inform CB who wants to be here.
