DJ_NUFC Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Since we're talking about Jack in the Anita thread and Anita in the Jack thread, I personally think Anita would have (and still could) succeed under McLaren's plans if McLaren hadn't bottled things elsewhere on the pitch. Giving Colo a new contract, not signing more defenders, and playing Obertan, Colback and Cisse alone up top making things ludicrously stretched in the middle of the park.

TRon Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I can't judge either Anita or Colback until they are playing as either a defensive or attacking midfielder without the other there beside him as an insurance policy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I can't judge either Anita or Colback until they are playing as either a defensive or attacking midfielder without the other there beside him as an insurance policy. Â The pair of them don't fit comfortably in any of those roles though. Both halfway house players more suitable to a midfield flat 3. Anita isn't strong enough defensively to be a DM, Colback isn't strong enough offensively to be an AM. Both essentially water carriers. A crap version of Arteta & Flamini CM partnership. I don't even know who is meant to be who. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallsendmag Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 The only difference between those who prefer Colback and those who prefer Anita is that the ones who prefer Colback are wrong. Â What a load of nonsense. Anita's been here 3 years and done absolutely nothing of note (West Ham at home last season apart). Colbacks had 1 season, scored 4 times and managed 6 assists for us. He's also a better defensive midfielder than Anita as well. In saying that I'd still Colback wasn't in our first XI either but he'll be an ever present this season, fitness permitting. I've got several friends over in Eindhoven who warned me Anita was hopeless when we signed him but I put that down to them just not liking him because he was from Ajax and they are all PSV fans and hate everything Ajax. So far they've been bang on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonsays Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Appalling today. I have lost count of the times he has been pressing on his own too far up the pitch and left us exposed in the middle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Â I'd rather see a fit Tiote in there. McClaren can get him back to how he was under Hughton, doing the simple things well before Pardew talked him up as Michael Essien Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Anonymous little b******. Â Far from anonymous today, vividly shit. Â He's actively hiding from the ball and deliberately stays 10 yards off where he thinks the ball will be to ensure he doesn't have to commit. Luckily Obertan is there to ensure he's not the most cowardly player on the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twinport53 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 It is absolutely amazing how far he runs away from his position at times. Staggering how often Anita had to try and close down the 2 Man Utd midfielders by himself because Colback had "grafted" his way to the Etihad.
