His wages were upped, but the length stayed the same. Bad move by his club if true... Unless they managed to insert a greater buy out clause or something...

I agree with Santon for Simpson this Saturday... It's his natural position despite the thread title... Hopefully will help bring out a bit more in Obertan... Raylor may be looking over his shoulder in January...

may be nitpicking, but i consider Maldini a left back...whereas i see Santon as a right back playing left back...i guess if Santon plays for 15 years on the left itll be hte same but Santon IS a right back, who is two footed enough to play both I think people need to realise he is not 2 footed... Though some may have more broader barometer... He's as one footed as Raylor... Possibly even more so...

Loved the tackle and drag back he did around the 77.40 mark...

Told you all he was a right back...

Tyler not doing the commentary in FIFA12... (PS3) Clive T. & Townsend... mentions him via his full name though in reverse oddly... Tyler does the commentary too. Really?... Just goes to show I buy FIFA every year then hardly play it... Does this forum have any online leagues by the way... I'm shocking at it like...

I've watched them both several times already... Wolves goal he hands the winger over to Obertan who fails to cut the cross out which in my eyes Raylor or a CH should of dealt with... Blackburn goal the whole back four caught out a little as not expecting Raylor to give the ball away as he does... Once the player is one on one with Simpson the path for the cross is blocked but the winger actually pulls the cross back away from goal to the edge of the box... Ball controlled fairly well and dispatched before being blocked by Cabaye or with CH... Not a Simpson fan and to me Santon is a RB and should therefore replace him long term but can't pin those 2 goals on Simpson for me... As for the goal for Spurs at home last season that is a different story...

No he didn't...

Yep... A bit old school... But easier situation to manage i guess as the manager can claim fairness and makes sure that those who have a hold of the shirt fight to keep it... Or in other words if the team is winning and the full backs are playing well then surely that is more important than finding a place for Santon in the team... Playing him won't guarantee anything... Picking him with no great reason due to current form of the team will guarantee a few noses out of joint... Like Ben Arfa it is nice we are in position we don't have to rush either... Especially after both have had leg injuries...

Raylor wouldn't be up against Bale... unless switched to RB... The choice to make in this game with Spurs not having much coming down the right is Simpson or Santon...

Just admit... We've bought a right back...

Thanks... Still believe he's only our short term LB solution if at all... Would be interesting if he kept faith with Raylor until January and dropped Simpson for him... Though AP seems to refer to him as a LB than a FB which is a little worrying still.. Will be interesting if AP sticks with an unbeaten team against Spurs as he has suggested so far... Especially as their wide attacking options seemed to be prodominately down the left via Bale with Lennon being out... Looking forward to the match up... Should be a great test...

What position did he play in the 2nd game against Turkey?...

Thought they might struggle tonight... Think they had 2 key players out... Both defenders i think...

If not the teeth maybe the stitched back ears?...

Ruiz Whoops!.. Aye that's the lad... Anyone seen much from him? Didn't hear his name mentioned in the highlights against QPR so guessing he's not getting much game time... Good to see Cisse is having another good season so far... Maybe not as far as his price tag if we go back in for him but always felt out of all the names banded about he was the most suited along with Erdinc... Can't get in their side atm. He came on against QPR when they were already 6 up and missed an absolute sitter. He might just need time to adapt but I can't see him getting much of a look in if Johnson and Zamora keep up their form against QPR, they tore them apart from what I saw. Cheers for the info... I heard behind the scenes things not great with Zamora and Jol which i think also dates back when Zamora was shoved out at Spurs not long after Jol turning up there... So he may get his chance further down the line...

Now legal... Let's see how much Sky pay now...

How is Luiz doing at Fulham?... Not noticed him much... Lucky escape perhaps...

Higuain... Nice...

And against QPR ? And Scunthorpe... And Fulham...Even parts of the derby...

Sad to see so many empty seats at Blackpool...

Beckford injured?...

I've nowt against him, really. When they blatantly time-shift his commentary, as they did today, he still sounds alright. (Is that libellous?) Spot on... Unlike Roger Thames...
