Mole_Toonfan Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I think all of our central midfielders are ho hum. They really don't offer much. Totally agree, our central midfield options are s****, they are all one and the same, zero creativity between any of them. They don't support the attack or create and they don't protect the defence either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Logic Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 He wasn't static on the ball for Sunlun. No-one responded to this but I thought it was very pertinent. Pardew tells the players the role he wants them to play and it's quite clear he was told not to venture forward, have to keep our shape, just keep it simple. I could write the following in every players thread. Pardew is going to shackle every bit of creativity and movement out of them - each and every one. And the only players that will think Pardew is the king are the likes of Williamson and Elliot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Flash Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 He's scored 10 goals (5 in the Championship years ago) in nearly 200 games. I don't think we can blame Pardle entirely for the ineffectiveness of Wearside Jack. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exiled in Texas Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I think the signing of Colback was a question of timing. He signed early in the window when NUFC did not know what other signings would come through, and better to sign Colback when available than hold out for the Plan A signings (Cabella, Grennier, PEA, Lacasette) which may/may not come off. I'm not convinced that we would sign Colback today if he came on the market now. It was opportunistic and provided cover for minimal cost. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Not fit to lace Guthrie's boots tbh and I'm barely even sure hes any better than Gosling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 He's exactly what we knew we were getting, a bang average, nothing player. Not sure whether to be worried he's started every senior preseason game (Sheffield was the kids). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Not fit to lace Guthrie's boots tbh and I'm barely even sure hes any better than Gosling. We both know he'll have a much better career than Danny Guthrie. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I sincerely hope not, but there's a reason Guthrie's 27 and likely to be stuck outside the PL for the rest of his career in spite of his natural talent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I thought Abeid was better than him, to be honest. No way he should be starting ahead of Anita. I always thought Colback was one of Sunderland's better players but I have to agree. I still think Abeid's got more potential than Colback if he got some decent time in English football.

Pilko Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 He's been 5 or 6 out of 10 in every single game. He's a Pardew player alright. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I think most of you have got this lad wrong. He's a decent all-rounder and will prove to be a good signing. As someone else has pointed out, it's not as if we're overloaded with talent in CM. Colback is the least of our worries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Gleebals Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 I have no issues with him if he is a squad player over a weekly starter. Him and Tiote in the same teams smacks of bottlejob jobbing it and going all defensive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Venkman Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 My only issue with him is that Pardew will start him in every game because he's english and runs around a lot, which could well be to the detriment of the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
