It's clear looking at his teams he doesn't even watch the games.  He clearly saw a few highlights and saw the clearance and it's a player he knows and we kept a clean sheet.  There's no more logic in it than that.  We win 3-0 and no mention of a single attacking player, because a few of the other players he recognises also had reasonable games this weekend.  Another case of a really lazy Football journalist thieving a living.

In Garth's team of the week...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/31085797

 

"In a week when Newcastle United announced John Carver is to remain as head coach until the end of the season, the 3-0 victory at struggling Hull City was a terrific team performance by the Magpies. Fabricio Coloccini made a clearance off the line at a crucial stage in the match and was solid and strong throughout. This was an excellent team performance by Newcastle and special mention to the match officials for spotting Ahmed Elmohamady's handball."

 

:lol:

Just remember UK residents, you pay his substantial wages.

Worth every penny. If anything he's not on TV enough these days.

Finished at the top level almost. No excuses for him.

Well there is one excuse. Playing next to Williamson would make almost anybody look bad

It would, but like Ronaldo says, Colo hasn't been good for about two years now, and it's got nowt to do with Williamson. We need to get rid of Colo, Willo and Taylor and get three new CBs in this summer, as well as bring Lascelles back as cover.

He's 33 and was never the quickest or most physically centre-back. What do you expect? Not his fault he's in a position where he's the only barely competent centre-half on our books.

Might as well have Lascelles here given he never starts a game for Forest.

I think there's more to it than his physical degradation. My feels are that he doesn't really give a fuck anymore.

It is his fault he's still useless dealing with physical strikers after 7 years in this country. It's also his fault he doesn't do his job as a captain.

When was the last time he was paired with an actual decent partner who can complement his weaknesses, though? Other teams extend the usefulness of their CBs and strikers by having a much quicker player next to them. Our policy has been to pair him with absolute shite, and sell the best young defender we've had at the club in ages to Roma.

Correct!

I imagine Ronaldo and College Dropout's universe going completely red with the siren-theme from Kill Bill filling the air every time Colo and Cisse are mentioned, respectively. :lol:

 

I was kinda the same way about Gosling, so I do understand.
