Alan Pardew: “He’s our captain and you only have to look at the stats when he plays.
"We defend better, our record with goals against is better and he’s a natural leader of the team in terms of what he does on the pitch.
“He’s not a particularly big spokesman in the dressing room but he leads by example.
“I’ve compared him to Bobby Moore and I’ve no embarrassment in doing that.
“He’s very, very similar. Everything I’ve been told about Bobby Moore, Colo is. Lead by example, right attributes, train hard, work hard and play at the very highest level. That’s what Colo gives us.”
WE TELL IT AS IT IS - NO BULLSHIT!
