TRon Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Well, this lessens the chance of Willo getting in the team so it's good from that respect I guess. Would have looked to see Dummet with Mbemba myself. Williamson hasn't even made the bench last few games, I don't know if he's injured but Lascelles is the current cb sub.

timeEd32 Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Colo in midfield would be no worse than Colback in midfield, but it won't solve anything and is totally pointless when your 3rd choice CB is Jamal Lascelles. Colo in midfield would make Colback seem like Vieira. It was a bad idea 5 years ago. It's a ridiculous suggestion now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're just massively overrating a past-it Coloccini in a position he's never proven he can play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is right though, despite the jips How on earth this knacker is captain of a premier league football team in this day and age is beyond me . There's no evidence of any leadership qualities on or off the pitch - coming in early for training or being a seemingly nice guy aside - his physicality is abysmal, and he's been the gutless, cowardly guy leading this team out to a number of consecutive derby defeats. The less said about him wanting out, the dodgy s*** with his dad and San Lorenzo and the s*** with his wife, the better. Where was he when Gutierrez had beef with the club? Where has his voice ever been? Oh, right, wanting HBA out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Aye ana. So annoying we moved MYM on rather than shipping out Colo. Whether he made it with us or not in the end he wasn't on the decline and had the potential to improve. But then again, aerial duels. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a stats site, don't think it claims to be anything more. All I've seen is their interpretations of players strengths/weaknesses and shite like the above. Wasting time creating bizzare formulas to work tell us Wes Morgan has been '6.69'. A simple 'he's shite' will suffice. Tbf the overuse of stats is a footballing pet hate, I'm biased.

merlin Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Coloccini has had one good game all season - at OT. Since then he has been mediocre or poor and he should have been gone 2 years ago...would have been under KK. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paully Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Columnist Olivier Bernard was left furious with referee Bobby Madley's decision to award Sunderland a spot kick The pain has still not subsided from Newcastle United’s 3-0 Wear-Tyne derby loss at Sunderland - I still can’t believe they lost that game. And what makes it feel worse is that referee Bobby Madley cost them, they didn’t cost themselves. Not only was it not a red card for Fabricio Coloccini - that is a guarantee, I still can’t believe he sent the Argentine off - but in my opinion it was never a penalty. It really wasn’t. As a defender, I would be absolutely furious if a penalty was given against me for that. It just isn’t a spot-kick. Coloccini was coming from the inside and Steven Fletcher the outside, while the goalkeeper was always getting the ball - so that is not a penalty. The Football Association have rightly overturned the decision because it was, quite frankly, the wrong one. If Coloccini had been on Fletcher’s outside and coming across him and then dragging him to the ground, then that’s a different matter, but he wasn’t. In the situation both he and Fletcher were in, there’s always going to be a 50-50 for the ball and a coming together - but that’s not a foul either way. Fletcher goes down theatrically and the referee points to the spot and ultimately costs Newcastle the game. It’s so frustrating and Madley has to take the blame because it was his poor call in a hugely important match that cost Newcastle. I cannot tell you how difficult it is as a player to continue to focus in a game of that magnitude when you have had an incorrect decision cost you a man and seen you fall a goal behind. Credit to Newcastle, because I thought they kept playing with togetherness and showed spirit right through until the end, but understandably they tired as the game went on and they were caught on the break by a Sunderland side who were clinical in the second-half. Before the red card, I personally thought the Magpies were in cruise control. I simply could not see any way that Sunderland were going to score - and the referee has then handed them a gift of a penalty right on a plate. It wasn’t just a small mistake by the referee, it was a huge one when you put it in the context of the match. Newcastle had enjoyed more than 60 per cent possession during the first-half and were causing Sunderland all sorts of problems. I also thought it was laughable that Lee Cattermole was not booked by Madley. Not only did he make a couple of challenges which, in themselves, I thought were yellow cards anyway, the referee then called the Sunderland midfielder across to point out three or four fouls he had already made and yet only gave him a warning. If a player has committed that many fouls then he should 100 per cent be in the referee’s notebook, there’s no question in my mind about that. Unfortunately we cannot rewind the clock and thankfully Coloccini has seen his red card rescinded but that is little consolation to Newcastle. They have lost a sixth-straight Wear-Tyne derby and it is still as painful now as it was at the final whistle on Sunday. That pain is not going to go away any time soon, either.
