Kolarov

Great goal by Kolarov, but again defensively he makes me nervous... Still, I think he's gotta be better than Wayne Bridge or Stephen Jordan.
 
Thought he was incredibly basic last night. He's worrying defensively and not that good going forward. However, he scored the equaliser so we can't be too harsh, though he should've been back helping for Cavani's goal. One thing that was proven is that Clichy has to be our No.1 left back.

He might have got the goal but he's still the weak link. We all know he can't defend but seriously what does he offer going forward as well?

Gives the ball away every time, shoots when he should pass (and that ends up in row Z), can't tackle, always out of position.

Clichy and Zab from now on, give Kolarov a go in the Carling Cup or something.

He's the weak link and we all know it, not good enough for us now.
What a stupid thread to make when he saved our asses from a defeat that would of left us in huge trouble in this group
 
I thought Kolarov was fine and yes his goal was very good, but I just think Clichy is that much better. Especially for possession and attacking. Clichy was an excellent signing he is fantastic on the left.
 
Kolorov has improved a lot this season and imo is a very good player but Clichy is just better than him. I think Mancini got the full backs wrong yesterday, he should have played his two best ones.
 
He wasn't our weakest defender last night and he was our most effective attacker.

You might want to direct your scapegoating a little further infield if you want to be taken seriously.

Kolarov was excellent again today. His only shot that wasn't blocked went in, he supports that side well enough, and he dealt with Lavezzi well whenever he came down his side. Are you sure you're not just seeing what you want to see, hmm?
Did you watch the game ? Kolarov was shocking apart from his goal,Laveezzi took him to the cleaners

Clueless.

He has one weakness - lack of pace. But he has a very good all round game, and is our best defensive full back. He also has an almost unique ability to strike a ball. Beckham made a career out of being a one trick pony - this is a very important feature
 
There certainly must be more people that rate Kolarov tonight. I was making a match comp on him today just for the hell of it before my computer crashed and I noticed how many times he came, provided width only for Silva and Nasri to want the ball back. Defensively, he was excellent. You can't blame him for not being back there for the Cavani goal, it's called a counterattack! You know, enexpected. He certainly isn't pacy and really had to exert himself tonight, but he makes up for it because he's multifaceted. It's a shame he really didn't get anyone on the end of his crosses and that Napoli blocked many balls. Clichy adds something different, pace, and pace could have been helpful tonight, but don't think because Clichy came on as a sub and dazzled for a little bit is because he's better than Kolarov (he might be), you must consider he was very fresh and we really were on our heels to try and push a win.

Excellent free kick Kolarov, the air sounded so still prior to the kick and Kolarov was gleaming with confidence while Kun and David exchanged words with him. I could just feel it was going in and it did. Our first Champions League goal!! Thank you Aleks and let's hope people don't forget that tonight you more than proved you're a vital member of the squad.
