Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I'm sure I remember reading somewhere, unofficially, we'd be more than likely extending his loan and this has been spoken about with Man U. Can anyone confirm or deny this? I haven't seen this anywhere on this forum so I am wondering where I've read this... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest michaelfoster Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 He is a free agent unless he is offered a new contract me thinks. No compensation whatsoever. He's under 24 so Man Utd will get compensation Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest campbell93 Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Very good Championship player, but is he a good Premiership (if we go up). But, I'd extend the loan 'til the end of the season, then maybe sign him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Heneage Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Hmm, he started so well but I don't know, he was described as an attacking full back by the Sunderland fan I know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatwax Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Why did you say 'depending on how good he plays' then? Because he might not do enough in the second half of the season to earn a contract. Obviously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Aye, but the lad said he 'was a very good championship player'. Seems like a massive contradiction to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatwax Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Personally I don't really know what to make of him. He seems very unspectacular but doesn't seem to screw up much. I have no idea what he'd be like in the premiership. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest campbell93 Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Aye, but the lad said he 'was a very good championship player'. Seems like a massive contradiction to me. Meant to say 'He's played very good for the 1st half of the season'. But you coulda known what I was on about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rey Mysterio Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 He's fucking shite. He's the kind of player Joe Kinnear would rate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubaricho Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Personally I don't really know what to make of him. He seems very unspectacular but doesn't seem to screw up much. I have no idea what he'd be like in the premiership. To be honest, we need more players like that at the club - ones whose name you don't hear often because they aren't fucking up. Re: the subject of this thread - we would be absolutely stupid not to sign him up. He seems like he wants to be here, he's solid, and he'll be cheap. Also, someone above stated that Simpson may not "do enough" in the second half of the season to warrant a contract, but isn't that the case with any signing? You're always inheriting that risk when you sign a new player that they may not live up to the standard. We should count ourselves fortunate that we got a sneak peek at a potential signing without having to really throw any large amount of cash around.

Wullie Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 He's alright but that's about it. Offers very little in any sort of attacking sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattynufc Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 He's alright but that's about it. Offers very little in any sort of attacking sense. We discussed this yesterday. My arguement was if he had Jonas ahead of him, he would be as Jonas relies on the fullback to support him, hence us seeing Jose forward so often. As soon as Guthrie swapped to the left we saw very little of Jose going forwards. Pancrate didn't give Simpson the chance to push onwards as he kept coming into the centre.

Keefaz Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 He's alright but that's about it. Offers very little in any sort of attacking sense. Remember him getting forward very well against PNE (I think) and delivering some very nice crosses. Definitely has the ability. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 I reckon he would be an average premiership full back and at £2m thats a bargain these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 Not a great loss if we don't sign him, handy if we do. Sure there's plenty other options of a similar standard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 He's very limited going forward but a fairly important part of the best defence in the Championship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
