jimmymag Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I had my eyes open for the entire second half while our midfield was bossed by Dean Marney et al. He obviously gets a pass today for the corner and a great goal but its ridiculous just how often our midfield can be dominated by the most limited opposition. Give us a decent manager ffs. And you're saying that Colback wouldn't be in any new managers' starting eleven? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussiemag Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Tiote is absolute shit, only always well against the top 5 or 6 clubs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt that our inability to control matches in midfield is a coaching problem rather than his fault. That's generous for gingersack. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmymag Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Get a load of this guy! Definitely related to Colback and Alnwick Not at all. Not related, not even ginger. But I do want to see a Geordie lad do well for my club, and he's the best prospect we've got, at the moment, of doing that. I just think that Colback is a Premiership quality midfielder, who we got for nothing, and I think that's a good deal. I'm prepared to back my opinion over any other on here.

He replaced Cabaye who we sold for 20 million. By all accounts it was a shit deal. He's exactly bang average at his absolute best and spends most of his time trying to get the ball back by chasing it around like a cocker spaniel.

IMO, Colback is a good premiership midfielder, who we signed for nothing, Alnwick is a very young goalkeeper learning his trade, Pardew is a fraud of a football manager. Your point is???

Stifler Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Colback isn't a replacement for Cabaye, De Jong is, has everyone just forgot about him? Cabella is more of a replacement than Colback is. Colback is a replacement for Gosling, though in the long run I think he's going to end up being a replacement for Tiote. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your own tiny mind is Colback a replacement for Cabaye. Average Premiership quality for nowt, I'll settle for that thanks. Oh, and he's a Geordie.

So Colback who has been virtually ever present in the side this season is a replacement for Dan Gosling who had 5 league starts in 4 years? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't realise that I'd been imagining him starting in Cabaye's position all season. Why do you care if he was free? What difference does that make to you? As for the Geordie bit, I went to school with the lad, he was at the Sunderland academy. Killingworth is entirely Newcastle fans, he wasn't 'a Geordie' when he was shushing the crowed and giving the '3-0' signs when he was at the mackems, was he? He can get fucked trying to play up the local lad bullshit. I like local players coming through but if they're no good, I couldn't give a shit. Carroll's the only decent local lad we've had in years anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Colback who has been virtually ever present in the side this season is a replacement for Dan Gosling who had 5 league starts in 4 years? Well if you want dismiss the fact that De Jong has been out because of an injury since pre-season, and Cabella spends more time on his arse than doing anything else whilst he's on the pitch, and the fact that we had Pardew picking the team then go ahead. Just because he's playing it doesn't mean he's Cabaye's replacement, he's not. If we were injury free then Colback should only be taking Tiote's spot. If people want to hate Colback because he used to play for Sunderland or because he made a simple gesture after they beat us last season then go ahead, just don't make up that he's Cabaye's replacement as a reason to hate him because he's not.

Hanshithispantz Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 De Jong is effectively a forward, man. He's about as much a replacement for Cabaye as Perez is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Aye, because you're never wrong. He was Cabaye's replacement, he's been playing IN Cabaye's position WITH Tiote, Cabella is quite obviously supposed to be Ben Arfa's replacement and De Jong is much more a forward.

Mr Logic Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I think he lacks heart when under pressure. Good when it's going for him. Saw him lose out to a ball in the second half and just walk back aimlessly through midfield as Burnley attacked our goal with everyone else scrambling.
