After his total minutes played so far I agree. Has hit some nice passes a couple high quality crosses and some quality set pieces but overall not really marquee quality. Still early days and isn't being helped playing centrally but really needs to produce something in his next 180 minutes or we may have another Koren scenario. Mind you he does work hard so it doesn't seem to be an attitude thing. Just expecting more when comparing Brandan and Jakobsen and of course Fornaroli.

Disagree. Quality player. At last someone who can take a decent inswinger dead-ball kick, and get a cross on to someone's head in the box. Should be playing either LB (where he was excellent in the Final) or LW. Last night one of the very few actually showing he wanted an equaliser in the dying stages. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stick him in as our regular left back, give him licence to overlap and then see how he does with am extended run in the side. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R410 Posted December 18, 2016 Report Share Posted December 18, 2016 40 passes at 90%+ accuracy on the weekend. Only his 3rd or 4th game back from injury, it's clear he is a quality player. But Agree he and Franjic should be taking our free kicks and corners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr lime Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 I don't know. Keep waiting for him to do a bit more than take good free kicks and corners. Needs to play at left back because in midfield he doesn't do enough for mine. Drifts out of the game too easily. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n i k o Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 Still waiting for this guy to take the league apart. Certainly the player I wanted to get behind this season especially after the derby in round 2. Unfortunately at this stage it's seems that what we're seeing now from him is probably what we'll get the rest of the season. Will be helpful once Brandan gets back and Colazo goes into that left fullback position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be helpful once Brandan gets back and Colazo goes into that left fullback position. I don't think it helps Colazo too much with a player like Rose behind him. He's the sort of player that needs a competent player near him that he can play a 1-2 off or overlap to put in a cross onto Timmy's or Bruno's head.

Problem is that Colazo is not used to the tactical stupidity of our game therefore struggles to play his natural game. He looks for link ups in the midfield, but our mids are too deep so the opportunities are gone. But he did play some nice links with Rose, but can't come inside due to no support and an overly congested front line. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXCiTyZeNXx Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 If you watched the way he played at Bocas. There was always someone running up for him to hit a high ball or a cross to. Colazo is a gun of a player, we just aren't playing the right counter attack tactics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More so him playing in position that best suits him and the team. The old square peg in a round hole discussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shahanga Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 1 hour ago, Jovan said: Is it just me but are we entering Koren territory with Colazo? Not yet but there are similarities. Colazo clearly has class (in my view more than the aging Koren) but similar to Koren has a minisicule workrate. You don't sign a marquee to be the 11th best player in your squad. He should be (even) better than Brandan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

playmaker Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 The stats sort of support my observations last night, as in he was more creative, solid and better distributor than Kamau who tends to be lost with the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cahill really hasn't done much but has scored some big goals and IMO warrants a place in the squad Colazo has had moments and is a class player yet hasn't really dominated as a Marquee should. He is way behind Jakobsen and Brandan in comparison and nowhere near Fornaroli. So for me he is really struggling. And tbf he is not helped by his left back who does him no favours with or without the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bt50 Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 (edited) IMO he's been rubbish. Seriously good for whipping in corners, but his general play has been awful for someone commanding marquee wages. From what i've seen he has to be played at LB for the remainder of the season; he's not quick enough or effective enough to play on the wing, esp when we have the Tiprat there to fill that role. He can still offer the same dead ball expertise from a full back position. And fwiw, i would have thought he was shit last night regardless of whether the goal was allowed or not. He didnt do the heavy lifting there, that was Brattans pass. Edited January 12, 2017 by bt50 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd agree with that, but a bit harsh to be saying it based on last night, when he would have been considered one of our best few players, if not for a call that was blatantly incorrect.

neio Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 There is something wrong with his positioning as a left winger. Kamau always seems to be active and making runs and getting the ball, colazo doesn't I thought it may have been just that we play down right hand side more, but when they switched for 10 minutes. Kamau was still doing same thing but on left, and colazo was still not involved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
