You could not be any more wrong if you tried
He was class today
Total waste of talent at left back
I'm a big fan of Colback but would have agreed with you on that assessment on todays gamne only. However O'Neill thought he was our best player.
I'm a big fan of his but he didn't have his best game. Same goes for the whole team though.
He was shite today
He does his best work defensively. He is over rated on here
When he got hold of the midfield, we scored but he does not do it enough, yet. He was also hampered by Cattermole sitting too deep, as were the whole team yesterday. As a general point I would be concerned as to the apparent lack of fitness of our team. Yesterday, viewed as a single entity gave me cause for concern rather than anything too positive. We must play higher up the pitch, fitness permitting.
We can't get away with two central midfielders who are incapable of scoring or creating goals and at present both Colback and Catermole fall into that category. We should be getting 8-10 goals a season from the centre of midfield and a similar number of assists, but at the moment there is nothing. This is the difference between finishing comfortably in the top half or struggling in the bottom half. Surely a priority for MON must be to improve this otherwise we will struggle.
Thought he played well.

Colback is a better footballer and a better athlete. And considerably more intelligent. Cattermole was lost when Colback was moved to fullback. He handed the centre of the pitch to Liverpool and we never saw him again.
There was a passage of play in the first half when Colback was doing everything and making lovely runs and passes. Catts made some good early tackles but then went quiet for me. Don't know if I had my blinkers on but Colback seemed to do a lot more than Rodger's love child Allen today...
Average midfielder, good left back
IMO yesterday we were poor in the middle of the pitch. If shelvey had owt about him he would of punished us. Colback is just not the answer for me, he doesn't really offer us a great deal and although he can be neat and tidy that's about it. He lacks vision, prime example second half when he tried a daft long range shot when he could of slipped mcclean in for a 1 on 1.
Cattermole can look ok when he breaks the play up but he's often way out of position and his tracking back is none existant. Shelvey constantly just walked off the back of him and he done nowt. Also at times regardless of what people on here say he give the ball away far to cheaply, as did colback.
I've come to accept that whatever I and some others think cattermole will play, so in that case we need someone in there alongside of him brought in January who can put his foot on the ball and dictate our game as colback for me just isn't up to it at this level.
