'If It's Football, It's Vital'

Colo's Turkish delight?

Following earlier links to Galatasaray this summer, it seems the latest in a very long line of clubs to be linked with calamity Coloccini is the Turkish giant Fenerbache. The News of the World today reckons that we'd take £3m for the player, a mere £7m loss on the lad in a year.

Admittedly the move would see us shed a further £70k a week on the wage bill.

How could Newcastle have got things so very wrong with Coloccini? Okay, you knew he would need time to acclimatise, but this fellow needed to learn how to play football as well.

He was never brilliant at Deportivo, failed at Milan and always looked suspect for Argentina. Methinks agent fees and kickbacks might have played some part in signing him.
