Rather have George Boyd. Ha ha Wullie. You are now cracking jokes these days. As others have said, and I agree with, Colback gets unwarranted criticism here. There are much worse players on our books. This people He's the second worst player (after Williamson) that has been a guaranteed starter when available. Really howay man.

Astroblack Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Janmaat, Sissoko, Dummett, Cisse and Perez were better than him anyway Abeid and Aarons too in their brief appearances. I'd argue that Cabella was better than him too, and Anita showed more promise in his last two games of the seasons than Colback has ever done. My word. Are you blind?

Mole_Toonfan Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Yet he was out third best player over the course of last season. Battle lines were drawn last summer though and there's no way back for our ginger hero. Even if that was the case, i don't agree but what ever. Don't you think that's a huge problem in itself?

Yorkie Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 There's no scenario where I'd want Colback in the team every week, but I think you can 're-judge' him under the new management. Like the majority, really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it is, he's a mid table player. Despite only ever being in teams that are fighting relegation or in the league below? He's crap, at his best he's a mid-table PL player, at worst he's a good championship player. He's nowhere near being one of our better players and if he is we're in trouble. He'd stand out like a sore thumb in the squad that started 13/14. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

samptime29 Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 People are too harsh on Colback. He shouldn't be playing all the time but he can certainly be useful especially in 5 man midfield. We need depth in squad. We need investment but Colback is a decent sub/semi-starter for us. If we can 4-4-2 maybe don't play him as much. Also can emergency full back.

Yorkie Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Sissoko's form tailed off dramatically, but any semblance of decent play we ever had in the second half of the season (which was outrageously infrequent, granted) still came through him. He's the best player in the squad, he just doesn't want to be here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twinport53 Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 You'd want to hope so considering he played over 1000 minutes more. Even when Cabella did play, it's 1-2 games and he was out again. It was Ben Arfa Mk II. And most of his games came on the left or right wing. His 2 best games were Chelsea away and Hull city away, in which he played as the CAM, behind the striker. Whether this was his base position, or where he just naturally drifted, is debatable, either way, he played well there. Lets play Colback once every 7 games for 1 match, and stick him on LW and see how he gets on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
