Teasy Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Still love the bloke and think he can still be class in a settled back line that isn't constantly under the cosh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 For me its either him or MYM, and I prefer MYM - and a new LB and CB partnered next to either. A player of the quality of Janmaat on the left would be nice. I like Santon but he's hurt and Haidara has a lot to learn to develop, imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sempuki Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Lost pace and becoming injury-prone. Might conceivably be his last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A player of the quality of Janmaat on the left would be nice. I like Santon but he's hurt and Haidara has a lot to learn to develop, imo. Likewise. We need MYM's pace and I think he'd excel when given a proper run at centre back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paully Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Still love the bloke and think he can still be class in a settled back line that isn't constantly under the cosh. Totally agree! Decent point from tf's match report; "Colo was excellent. Sociadad aren’t Man City but I believe rumours of his decline to be premature. This is a bloke rushed back from a serious injury last season (probably to try and make the Argentinian WC squad) and fell below his usual high standards. He’ll be fine and on the evidence of pre-season" http://www.true-faith.co.uk/pre-season-friendly-newcastle-united-v-real-sociedad-st-james-park-ko-130pm10aug/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 I'm not even going to waste my time beyond saying he's looked exactly what he is this pre-season: classy on the ball and good at making awkward interceptions look easy. Anything that involves physicality and he's an embarrassment. Obviously the bloke who wrote that didn't watch him against Huddersfield or Malaga.

I think thats fair enough, still reads the game very well generally. I like him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JToon7 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 In the team on reputation alone when it's clear he's been shit for a while now and he's at fault for a lot of the goals we concede. Surely MYM can't do any worse than him. The fact he's still our captain and still and first choice CB is joke imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki679 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 With MYM injured the only other option today was Stevie Bantz. When MYM is fit again i'd like to see him come in for Colo but for today i'd rather have Colo than Saylor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JToon7 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 As long as Pardew is manager Coloccini is captain and first name on team sheet, whether MYM is fit and available or not though, unfortunately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Swift Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Thought it was Williamson's fault, personally. But yeah, Coloccini isn't good enough against these teams anymore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pata Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Thought it was Williamson's fault, personally. But yeah, Coloccini isn't good enough against these teams anymore. Coloccini was too low initially but Williamson should've noticed that Colo is tracking Dzeko's run and go goalside. Janmaat and Anita also seriously sleeping not following the runs from Silva and Jovetic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aiston Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Went walkabout for the 1st goal and wasn't anywhere near good enough for the 2nd. Williamson was also terrible, absolutely nowhere to be seen for the 2nd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
