Wilson Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 What bothers me is our thin squad, we have already been caught out by injuries, yes we have Santon but selling Danny leaves with only one RB. this...but apart from than that.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 If he goes, needs replacement obviously. My hunch is there won't be massive offers coming in from any clubs ahead of us and he'll have a change of heart, though maybe Arsenal with their desperate injury problems may grab him for very temporary cover, but he's not good enough and seems unlikely.

AlanSkÃrare Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Who cares? He's decent but rather move santon to the right and sign a new LB. Tavernier and shane as backup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way , man I like Simpson as a person. Not as happy about his football, although i'm not as negative as others. Average/decent right back who we should have no problem replacing. Obviously though, we need to replace and not just give the spot to Raylor or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Quite shocked by this as it seems he was enjoying his football up here although it wouldn't surprise me if the club offered him his current wage with a few more bonuses thown in there. Not too fussed about him leaving as long as a replacement is brought in. Probably best for both parties if this happens in the summer though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRC Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Funny you should mention Simpson, as my Arsenal mate seems to rate him, and said he would swap us Djourou (sp?) for Simpson. I'd take that tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Isn't Djourou error-prone? Think he's exactly the kind of defender who would get crucified by our fans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorJ_01 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Bye Danny! Decent player, has put in some solid shifts and I'd keep him if possible but he should realise Newcastle is definitely the best club he could ever get first team football at.

He's great in the air but can't handle pacy strikers. Would have been useful against Norwich. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I would prefer Simpson to stay. I think the lad is a decent enough player and is a competent enough RB for me. He does have about two years left on his current contract so he could yet change his mind. In the future, if we end up moving Santon to RB and sign a new LB, then Simpson would be great back up for RB. But as it stands, if he wants to go then we can't really stop him though really can't see him leaving in January. He is our first choice RB atm and don't think Pardew will let him go.

Would rather keep hold of Raylor and sign a young LB to act as understudy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
