Jack Colback (now a free agent)


Recommended Posts

It's not criminal. It's somewhere where he is used to playing and can still contribute to our attacking play, and it allows us to bring a better player than Colback into the fold: Siem de Jong. In fact, it's what we should have done much earlier.

 

Wijnaldum is playing on the left though, is De Jong going to be able to do that? Isn't De Jong capable of playing box to box so he could be a straight replacement for Colback?

 

Wijnaldum box to box, Ayoze from the left and De Jong behind Mitro is how I would go.

Don't understand this logic of that playing CM means you can't score goals or will be restricted into getting into goalscoring positions.

 

Most of Wijnaldum's goals have come from making late runs, not like he won't still be doing that. Do i need to name the dozens of CMs have scored 15 goals plus in a season from the CM position?

The dozens? in a 2 man midfield? in a struggling team? Name me 6.

It's just safer not to fuck with one of the few players who's actually playing alright.

We are shit with him, shit without him. He's not the problem, the problem is we don't have a player that can dictate a game, have propper wingers, a decent centre back, any decent full backs, any leaders, a decent manager. Which all stems from having a good recruitment policy, which is down to the MD who the owner appoints.

 

We are fucked.

no one's being disabused of a notion hes scholes mk II or that we were a great team when he was playing, just that we sucked less with him in the side.

Aye, but it's irritating when certain people (Ujpest Doza being one of the main offenders) use him as weird way of pointscoring in an effort to prove that they 'were right all along' about something, what it is I'm not even sure any more. Colback is better than Tiote and probably better than Anita, all 3 are absolutely shite I think most would agree. All 3 get stick, Colback more so because he's an arsehole.
