As long as we win I don't care who plays. There's an awful lot of hate being carried around on here, I hope they're not like that in their real lives (I suspect that some are). That's a heavy load to carry through your life and it works against good health, get rid, life is too short.

Putting aside the Bardsley off the pitch stuff, who would you rather put up with playing there? Genuine question
Mate, Bardsley is dog shit and I can't believe you would ask the question. Sack the ****.[DOUBLEPOST=1381612800][/DOUBLEPOST]
There's no comparison. Bardsley isn't good enough to lace Colbacks boots. How the fuck people can say Bardsley is a better left back is beyond belief. Can no one remember the amount of times he played there and always ran into a cul de sac slowing down any chance of attack we had.

Oh and Colback's a better right back anarl.
Agree totally. All he does is run with his head down, checks back onto his right and delivers shot crosses. Not intelligent or enough of a good technical footballer to p,ay outside his preferred position, where he is also dog shit.

Colback isn't a fullback, you can laugh all you want, he's only ahead of him because Bardsley celebrating us staying up in a casino

We can't have colback left back all season

And i'll keep on laughing.
One day the penny will finally drop:- 100 premier league appearances for 4 different managers and he's still first choice.
He was playing left back long before bardsley's casino incident. He was third highest in appearances last year alone and bardsley's incident was in the final week.

Wake up and smell the coffee, Colback is a good player.
 
well said percy.
i might be wrong but i can't remember any bardsley performance to match colback's RB performance against everton at home. i'm sure he must've had a few but none spring immediately to mind.
colback had baines and piennar in his pocket that day, it was getting embarrassing at one point.

I see what you did there

Can't you fuckin read?

I like Colbackl, He is better footballer but he is a midfielder and he has been awful at left back this season, not his fault though.

He wasn't left back before Bardsley's casino incident was he. Danny Rose was.

Wake up and smell the coffee mate.

First choice in what???? You are now claiming he has been first choiceleft back for four different managers, which is a lie, and unless he starts getting games in midfield he will leave. He isn't and never will be a left back.
 
Colback.
Would prefer him to someone who gets pissed up at a casino midweek before a game and then has a laugh at the club after a defeat - Bardsley can go and rot in hell.
 
Colback is a decent shout for the left sided midfield player if Poyet plays a midfield three. In my view he should only be deployed at left back if the genuine left back at the club is unavailable (Dossena).
Bardsley should be ditched in January.
Celustka or Gardner can play at right back. There has to be some dignity left at the club, if Bardsley is selected for the first eleven again it proves we have lost it.
 
Cant believe Colback is getting so much stick. Hes only had a couple of poor games, less than most. People are judging his performances more harshly because of the 'he's not a left back' shite. Hes pretty good there IMO.

Calm yourself down bonny lad, you'll get hypertension.:)
I don't think he has been terrible this season, he's had a few solid performances. In the one or two games when he appeared poor the whole team was a shambles and the cover he had for the WBA game was absolutely none existent. Anyway, what's done is done and we'll never know what tactics the players were asked to use and who was directly at fault. At the time i didn't give any player ratings and refused to criticise ANY players for the palace and WBA games for without knowing what they were actually told to do it's impossible to apportion blame.

Danny Rose was left back but off the top of my head he missed at least 16 games through injury and sprains and Colback played LB for every one. Colback also played LB at the start of the season before Rose arrived and i'm fairly sure he had a very good game against arsenal away in a clean sheet. By the final total there wasn't much in it between the two of them.

With regards the coffee i'm already up and onto my third cup.
Colback is currently our best LB and at premier league level probably our most experienced LB. He's a good defender and he's obviously better at it than anyone else in the squad or he wouldn't be selected.
Colbak is the least of our worries.
 
We need a better left back than Colback.

i'll look forward to the day we sign a better left back than colback.
i can't see us signing a genuinely better one where there is no debate about it. i can see De Fanti buying us some fancy named "smart price" goof from far away but not a proper player.

It shouldn't take long to find one who is better. We had one last season.
