joeyt Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Played well today but going to reserve judgement on him when we play a team where we'll be expected to create regular chances Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1tche Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 I prefer him to tiote going off the little i have seen of him for us, wins the ball well, not as rash, has a better range of passing, a better shot and cross. Not as strong, but he was against 2 strong cms today and didnt get muscled out from what i saw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Kind of reminds me of Bowyer a bit, in the way he loves to get stuck in. But he obviously isnt as mental. I may get some stick for this . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJM Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Showed we've got competent cover for Tiote. Nothing more, nothing less. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Swift Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 He's not cover for Tiote. He's better than Tiote. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 It will be Tioté and Colback so you should compare him with Anita if anyone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest GeordieAce Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 He's not cover for Tiote. He's better than Tiote. I think so too. Not saying Tiote is a bad player, he breaks up play well and gets stuck in, but Colback has more in his locker. Better passer, better crosser, less prone to mistakes. Thought his crossing was superb today, hopefully he can build on that performance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
olliemort Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Thought he was good today. Nice balance there with anita sissoko and himself in the middle His set pieces are a nice bonus as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 On the whole my Motm today, was excellent, got stronger as the game went on, all credit to him. How he didn't start every game for that lot down the road is beyond me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenham Mag Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 It'll be enough to keep Anita out of the team. I expect Anita and Gouffran to drop out when Tiote and De Jong are fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Hope he keeps it up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ste Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 On the whole my Motm today, was excellent, got stronger as the game went on, all credit to him. How he didn't start every game for that lot down the road is beyond me. He played in the majority of Sunderlands games for the last 3 seasons.

Ronaldo Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 He's not cover for Tiote. He's better than Tiote. 4 years younger too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozy Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 He was genuinely excellent today, both playing ahead and when he covered in for Anita at the base. Cracking set pieces too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 He's not cover for Tiote. He's better than Tiote. 4 years younger too. 4 inches shorter and 4 yards slower as well. Don't get me wrong, I've always thought he's a decent player, but he can't cover ground like Tiote. He's a shit version of Cabaye in that respect.

Disco Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Did alreet, if he's taking set pieces he needs to remember to fuck off what his biggest fan has told him and not float it in to no-one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pata Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Tiote is rubbish against 80% of the teams in the league, man. Colback will be useful against all of those teams just simply because he can control a ball and he makes positive passes. We don't have room for passengers on the pitch and Tiote is a passenger against most teams unless we're defending for our lives. Probably the most ridiculous statement I've ever seen here. Well done Pip! Colback was good, really surprised by that performance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belfast Mags Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Play well today, good debut performance. Neat & tidy in possession, found some nice forward passes and tracked back well on a few occasions and likes a tackle. Disappointingly, I'm pleasantly surprised Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duo Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Did not realise he was that good a player. We nicely surprised by him today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley17 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Actually harries the opposition and forces mistakes, nice to see. Loves trying to steal an interception too, very useful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
