Skeletor Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Don't know how he didn't get booked with all the nothing yellow cards Marriner gave out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliottman Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I'm not a hater or a defender of the lad, but I thought he had one of his Better games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 That's laughable. Him being a Geordie works against him. Did Shola being a Geordie work against him as well? Nah it didn't, it was because he wasn't very good, like it does to Colback. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I hate him but I thought he was alright today. i'm his biggest critic but i thought prior to the sending off we saw his best game (or the best of him) today when he was pressing and harrying their midfielders when they had the ball bit like manyoo when we switched up he pressed very well but after the sending off he was back to being on the back foot and that's not his thing imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Oh I forgot, I can't say positive things about Colback on here. Thankfully it's unique to Newcastle Online. Try saying it without the other bollocks like "him being a Geordie works against him" and "it will be ignored" maybe. People don't really like him, I'm not sure what you expect them to do every-time he has a decent enough game? It's the same with Obertan and Gouffran.

Tooj Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Btw I thought his determination and graft today certainly helped us, he just has little quality. Playing his role (as he doesn't seem to be classed as a sitter) you need to either have that bit of class on the ball or at least be able to be on top of your opposite numbers physically. Just don't think he offers any of that. That doesn't have anything to do with where he's from. I bet when he played for the Mackems people weren't wishing he was anywhere near our team.

SiLvOR Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 He was in no way, shape or form "class", but he put in a shift as TRon says. Not going to be chatting shit about him for this performance, which is a credit to him I suppose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 He was fine. This is his kind of game. Backs to the wall, no possession, no attacking kind of games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Don't know how he didn't get booked with all the nothing yellow cards Marriner gave out. This, the only one of our players who i think deserved a yellow, not through malice though, just repeated fouls. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I just don't see it... Same, once again I thought once Anita got subbed off Colback looked a lot more exposed and it should have been Colback taken off Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I just don't see it...

M4 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I hate him but I thought he was alright today. This for me. Slow in releasing the ball when he had it, but overall he did well today. There's no need for him and Anita to both be on the pitch though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

triggs Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I thought he was good. He's pretty good at getting in tight and getting little touches on the ball to put the player up against him under pressure Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 It was an average Colback performance, plain average. Didn't do too much wrong, didn't really impact the game, certainly offensively which means we get pinned back far too often. Agree with M4 no need to have him and Anita on the pitch, wijnaldum back and colback on the bench as backup to Anita. Having a chance to sit there and know he has to improve to work his way back would do him good. The general mong crowd will see that and past the fact he is a local lad eventually.

SMTW Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Don't mind him playing in games when we aren't going to have much of the ball and we need someone in there to harry and harass. He shouldn't be playing against weaker teams where we should be controlling possession though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Altamullan Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 How about being a reasonable human being, as an expectation for fans. We'll all have favourites and least favourites, it does no harm to take your blinkers off and acknowledge when one of the latter have a decent game. You could even prefix with adolescent sh*te like "I hate him, but..." or "I wouldn't play him, like..." as if it matters/you have some special claim on the 'truth'. If somebody didn't do what JC did today, I think Arse would have had more time to play far more balls into dangerous areas. Personally, I wouldn't have started him today (but who gives a f**k, SMc knows better than me), but I think he did well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
