Yep, really thought he had got rid of his playacting tendencies. Not so eh?

6 minutes left, howay Napoli!

Oh shut the f*** up, Clive.

Eh? What happened there?

Clive with a loud YES there.

Urgh. Silly from the defender.

Close there.

Ah fuck's sake.

I can't remember many Italian teams winning in England. My memory isn't great though. Only 1 I can remember in recent years was Inter @ Chelsea when they won the CL. Did Milan win at Old Trafford a few years back? I don't want to mention what Inter did to us. Man U won that game. Last minute winner from Rooney iirc.

Good ball and good header tbh. 1-0 Chelsea.

Which is why the coach should be sacked but seriously that lad who kicked the other's head should be expelled. Instructions or not, you can't be doing that whatever age you are. That kid has to face the consequences as well as the coach.

Roy Keane's done well to tolerate him......
-
That coach needs to be sacked. That kid who kicked the other kid's head should be expelled from the team too.

Presumably visiting family.

Hope Chelsea get a hammering tonight. Would be fun to see.

Aye, I say don't risk him now. Just let him get ready for pre-season.

I seem to remember him being signed primarily as "competition" to Jonas. I pretty much expect that to be pretty much the case next season too, though I would really like to see Marveaux in the team - he has looked good from what I've seen (good crossing, good technique, canny passing). You never know, he could even take Jonas' place (not that I want Jonas out of the team btw).........we shall see. Really hope his injury problems are now properly behind him and I also hope he gets a chance next season. Definitely not writing him off (like some of mates have done).

Complacency does come into it a bit really. It does seem that he constantly makes the same mistakes and that the fact that he hasn't really learned from them demonstrates a somewhat complacent mindset - that is, it's probably the case to his mind that because his position isn't really under threat, he doesn't have to learn from his mistakes. He knows he's in the team week in, week out so really, he plays as he's always known (backing off the opposition player and float in the occasional (bad) cross. Btw, I swear his crossing wasn't so bad last season). It's a shame to say that I've seen no improvement in Simpson this season, was hoping he would step it up.

There probably is that little bit of complacency on Simpson's part. He's started 60+ consecutive games at RB and I really think that the lack of competition for that position is potentially a reason for some of Danny's shite performances this season. A little competition is probably the kick up the arse he needs. As it stands, he is the first choice RB and there really isn't anyone to challenge him for his position (reasons being: Raylor is terrible defensively, Santon is the established LB in Pardew's eyes, Perch is a squad player). Regarding the young lads, hope we give Tavernier a new contract and steps up to the plate (if we don't sign a new RB/LB). A bit of healthy competition can be a good thing like. I also hope Ferguson is heavily involved in pre-season so that we can see whether or not he can make LB his own position. I actually would like Simpson to stay, but his role next season should be a backup one to a new RB (a quality one that is).

Wor Hatem for me.
