Colback outstanding AGAIN...

Excellent today and if it's just a case of offering him a new contract then that seems a no-brainier to me. It would cost at least £5m to get someone as good, never mind better.
 
There's better out there so we should try and go for better, he's inconsistent at this level. I like him but we need a change!
 
Colback has been one of the reasons for our revival. Since he came back in we have been far more solid and he does all the quiet jobs in midfield that stops other teams playing and feeds our forwards. We must be mad to even consider letting him go to the mags.
 
I wonder, am I the only one who thinks he wasn't "outstanding"?

Decent game.... but really?

Agreed, played very well today but not 'outstanding' though. He's actually played better games and people on here said he was shite. Make of it what you will. The lad is a good footballer and a lot of the work he does goes unnoticed. As Piston said, he's a footballers footballer.
 
need a better midfield then Cattermole colback larrson next season
No, when they play we are mid-table. When Colback and Larsson were dropped we were Championship level. Of course, if Hazard wants to come we'll take him, but otherwise they are doing quite well.
 
During our bad run Poyet played Cattermole - Bridgcutt - Ki, which gave us two defensive midfielders and a position based midfielder with little forward play. Now we have Cattermole - Larsson - Colback, which gives us a defensive midfielder and two hard working midfielders who offer an attacking threat. We still have defensive cover, but we also have an offensive threat from the middle. The change in results shouldn't be a surprise.
