Foluwashola Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Weirdly I don't 'hate' Colback, I just think he's shit. He's trying really hard, which is probably why. Is correct. As a player he's ghastly but the internet dweeb hatred, as with Dummett, is daft. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I hate the fact he's playing for us, don't get me wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 He's trying to hide, more like. Seen nothing to just suggest he's trying really hard when he plays. He picks the cowardly option anytime he's near the play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Dummett is competent at the fundamentals of his position. While Colback has some passing ability - he doesn't do the basics very well. Makes it look hard work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I really warmed to the lad after this tbh: https://www.nufc.co.uk/nufc-tv/latest-videos/hayden-to-win-the-league-is-what-i-came-here-to-do Colback at around 43 seconds :lol: It's the most radgie thing I can think of.

Guest Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Rafa selected him due to no alternatives in the squad. Probably saw him as a decent squad player in the Championship but I doubt he's rated by him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably saw him as a decent squad player in the Championship but I doubt he's rated by him. He was regularly chosen before other central midfield options, largely as a result of his GRAFT. Hope he's shipped this summer (very unlikely) but to claim he doesn't try is a stretch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it's more that he's decent at playing the easy, safe short pass. When we're ahead (and if we're dominating possession) he can do that for a while.

Guest firetotheworks Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 The effort he puts into bringing down players in dangerous positions and hiding behind players so he doesn't have to take any responsibility isn't in doubt like. He went to the Alan Smith School of Perceived Effort for Glebes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 "if you exclude for Hayden when he was injured" I'm not including Hayden when he was injured as Colback started ahead of him when he was fit too.

Diame played more in the 10 role for most of the season, i think we had limited options in CM all season long, especially when Hayden got injured. You're right though, i think Rafa quite likes him, which baffles the feck out of me. Yeah he works hard, but even then he makes that look as thick as fuck when he does it. He is utterly awful, just an utter waste of a shirt imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't be arsed to play some pointless game of semantics like, I was just answering your question I wasn't having a go, jeez this place at the moment. Everyone is being fucking fanny tarts I know he started ahead of Hayden, that where Rafa studies how many minutes players play, their fitness levels and fatigue levels as they approach games. It's brilliant stuff when you have a great squad, annoying when you have Colback as one of that squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
