Jack Colback (now a free agent)


Recommended Posts

Why does it make any difference who is whose replacement?

 

We're bottom of the league.

 

Eh?

 

Take your time.

 

I know we're rubbish, I just don't see what difference it makes who is supposed to replace who.

 

:lol: Course you don't.

 

Well it's an entirely pointless question. What matters is whether the team is better or worse than before, and which players are good signings and which aren't.

 

Compared to Gosling Colback is good, compared to Cabaye he's shit. Which one you pick seems purely arbitrary.

Tactically, it's quite important.

 

Cabaye was our main creative force, we don't have him any more. We used money from his sale to buy a set of players who should be considered his 'replacements'. To improve our team, this/these player(s) have to be better than Cabaye, to stay the same they have to be of equal quality, and to regress, they can be whoever the fuck you can get. I reckon we've gone for the latter option, hoping that their collective efforts might match his.
