    He can do a killer pass tho. remember the Bolton home game when we draw 2-2 he set up bendtner. most players do sideways or backwards passes but given time I think Colback will get better in all departments.

    I understand where you're coming from but isn't that the same problem we have with Larsson and Vaughan? Two dogs hurtling towards 30, set in their ways and will never change? Jack is better defensively not to mention better than the other two lads at their own game. Age is on his side. Perhaps if he had been developing his own midfield game instead of retraining for another position then he'd be well on his way to developing that forward pass. Why do you think he won't sign a new contract? I think it's because if we're not willing to help develop his midfield game so he's willing to find someone who will. The lad is a talent and he's wasted at LB imo.
