"It's been a long time since I've seen a team so well prepared and drilled for a match as Newcastle were against Chelsea on Saturday." - Garth Crooks, professional gobshite
Garth Crooks you're an arsehole: "It's been a long time since I've seen a team so well prepared and drilled for a match as Newcastle were against Chelsea on Saturday. Magpies boss Alan Pardew and his coaching staff must take credit for that. However on the pitch you need a general and in Fabricio Coloccini he couldn't have picked a better man. The unflappable Argentine kept his men calm and resolute against the league leaders throughout some pretty heavy bombardment. Even after Newcastle had been reduced to 10 men, Coloccini kept his troops on track as Chelsea fell to a 2-1 defeat." So, even though we are STILL the only team not to concede against Chelsea - a Newcastle Defender gets in the side when no Sunderland defenders did? I don't disagree with Coloccini being in there but O'Shea played as well last week (if not beter) than Coloccini at the weekend yet people like Glenn Johnson got in the side ahead of him. ****wit
