Seymour Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 ...But he was. They were both playing. Colbacks injury was prior to Shelveys ban Due to Shelveys ban he came back from Injury early Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Colback's fine alongside Shelvey because we can afford to have someone keeping it simple and just being a nuisance in midfield, nothing to do with his injury why he now looks terrible again.

Guest firetotheworks Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 ...But he was. They were both playing. Colbacks injury was prior to Shelveys ban Due to Shelveys ban he came back from Injury early I mean that they were both playing games alongside Shelvey. Unless I've imagined it, neither had nailed down the place and made it their own/kept the other out of the team prior to Shelvey's ban and/or Colback's injury.

I read that wrong. Colback wasn't keeping Hayden out of the team though, they were rotating but Hayden started the 4-5 games before Shelvey's ban. Not sure when Colback was injured? EDIT: Colback's started 11 games. Hayden's started 19. They were rotating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 and can anyone remember the games he played well in? best i could say for him is that he probably had a period where he didn't stand out as absolute shite and/or make some catastrophic mistakes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Makes you wonder as to whether Ashley/Charnley are putting the block on incoming transfers. I certainly hope not - I couldn't see Rafa standing for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 It's pretty difficult to sign a player who'd improve us, be Premier League class and ready to drop down for 6 months. Obviously people like Colback could be improved upon, but he's not going to be a regular in particular with Shelvey & Hayden. A few loans to see us over the line is the best bet.

Figures 1-0 Football Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 If we repeat the first half of the season in the second half, with the exact same team - then we go up. There is no crisis, no need to panic and no desperate need to bring people in. Especially if they are not good enough to step up next season. If we cant get any targets to drop down a level, then I'd be happy with one or two short term loans to bulk up the squad a bit more (#10 and another midfielder to be back-up to Shelvey, maybe a winger but if Sammy performs well until AFCON finishes then that's not a desperate need).

ohmelads Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Let's not kid ourselves. The squad is seriously short on creativity despite being big on numbers. One or two injuries to key personnel will kill us. It sounds cliched but complacency is what will stop us going up. We need signings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
