Not sure why anyone would be surprised at him being on £40k, that's probably the basic rate for a Premier League player these days.

 

Thought it'd be more with him being a freebie. Sickening.

Replacement for Cabaye.  No wonder why we got relegated.

Its not nonsense.  Local lads an British players got a rougher ride. 

 

Jacky Colback is bollocks though.  Awful. But so was Anita.  Only one is here and it makes me sad. 

 

Compared to who?

 

Thauvin?

Cabella?

Ben Arfa?

Marveux?

Mbiwa?

Jonas?

Anita you mentioned.

 

...and Ryan Taylor got less grief.

 

Mbiwa aye. Janmaat.

 

I don't want to defend Colback. He's shit.

I thought people were a little harsh on him at times in the Premier League. He had the odd decent game. He was below-par player but not a disgrace.

 

Last season though. He was very poor in the Championship tbf. Turbo shit.

 

He's not good enough and needs to leave but I don't hate him.

The thing with him is, I've always thought he was shit, but in his first season he somehow managed to score 4 goals.

 

I went back and watched them, as I was so confused by this discovery. One was a hit and hope from distance against Burnley, but the other 3 involved him bursting into the box to score against Everton, Spurs and Stoke. As shit as he was, he actually got himself into the box to score goals. It's physically impossible to imagine him doing that now.

His stats were at one point better than Sissoko's.... :lol:

I've never watched a game where he featured and felt he was an asset for us. Never.

 

Instead I clench my teeth everytime he is near the ball, hoping he doesn't do something ridiculous.

Agree that the Citeh game was his best. You could make allowances for going backwards under Pardew but after last season he has to go.

Newcastle United midfielder Jack Colback set to leave after training ground row with boss Rafa Benitez

 

Jack Colback has almost certainly played his last game for Newcastle United

The former Sunderland midfielder refused to take part in a training session

Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez has since told the player to train alone

 

Jack Colback has almost certainly played his last game for Newcastle United after a training ground row which has seen him banished from the first-team set-up.

 

Sportsmail understands that the former Sunderland midfielder was already training away from the main group earlier this week when, after one player picked up a knock, he was called to join in.

 

Colback, however, is thought to have refused to take part and this has infuriated manager Rafa Benitez, who has since told the player to train alone.

 

The 27-year-old reported to the club’s training ground on Friday afternoon - after the senior session had finished - and was forced to work by himself.

 

Colback will be left out of Benitez's 25-man Premier League squad and the Magpies have already offered him to other clubs, although his £40,000-per-week wages are thought to be a stumbling block.

 

Colback began his career with the Black Cats, but joined Newcastle on a free transfer in 2014 and has since played 102 games for the club

 

This won't go down well, but anyway...........

 

Rafa doesn't have the greatest reputation when it comes to tact and sensitivity when dealing with players. Whatever your opinion of Colback's ability, it does look like he was humiliated here.

Who cares? He's crap and should be shown the door. His celebration against us wasn't tactful either.

With all due respect Cronky but that is a load of bollocks. Colback is a fraud and an impostor hiding behind his heritage and his teammates, humiliating the team and the club by doing nothing of note on the pitch apart from lagging behind the opposition tugging at their shirts and falling over. He has no personality or ability to speak of and Rafa has sussed him out. On top of that, if it's true that he's refused to train because he didn't figure in Rafa's plans then it only confirms what we've always known...that he's a coward.
