Guest Rey Mysterio Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 the sad thing is he's our best right back, i know many wont admit it here but he is. who else we got? dont say santon because he thinks he's a winger. Perch, errr no thanks. You really think Simpson is better than Santon? Disregarding the fact we would need them elsewhere in the side, I would guess Santon, Colo, Jonas, Raylor, Tiote & Cabaye from our starting line up today would all make a much better fist of playing right back. I've said it a million times but he literally is rock bottom, you won't find a poorer player anywhere else in a PL starting XI. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Say Pardew suddenly decided to move Santon to right back (I'm in no way convinced that this is the plan btw), who do we play at left back? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I think he'd prefer to put Ryan Taylor there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistle17 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 If I were one of the players my heart would just sink every time he was on my team in training. I can see Ba and Cisse being the two captains and picking their teams and then they do rock-paper-scissors over who avoids Simpson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I'd play Rob Elliot at RB if it meant Simpson wasn't playing. Theres a kid in my sons football team and he is shitter than shit, yet he plays all the time, (ass man son), i hate him nearly as much as i hate Simpson, slow, cant tackle, cant pass, cant clear it properly, cant mark. Simpson and kid.......both shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Has to be replaced..and we need a better option at CB than Williamson too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Ass man son. Do you hate Simpson as much as Mrs. Bimpy though? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Ass man son. Do you hate Simpson as much as Mrs. Bimpy though? She has been ok lately, but as the 29th of February approaches, i feel a proposal maybe coming my way, i've decided to answer that particular question by punching her straight in the face. Should leave her no doubts about trying it in 4 years time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 punted that many balls from 40yds to just beyond the penalty spot it was like barton was still here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagten Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I wouldn't be averse to playing james perch ahead of the useless twerp. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishmael Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Reckon I could do a better job in possession. Not in defence though; I'd get schooled. 100% serious post. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BONTEMPI Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I wouldn't be averse to playing james perch ahead of the useless twerp. He'd give a bit more height at the back but you'd have to play Jonas down the right to cover his ass and Barfa down the left Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 He wasn't at fault for either goal and could have scored for us, he also played the ball in which resulted in us getting our 2nd. He's useless with the ball but he wasn't our worst player today, he was probably 4th worst. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishmael Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Don't care about that tbqh Mick. His general play is appalling; like school boy bad. Needs replacing asap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree, I just think we have bigger problems than him and until the bigger problems are removed I'll concentrate on them unless he's costing us goals or points.

Guest Heneage Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I never see Santon play it long, by contrast Simpson looks up and plays it blindly down the flank almost all the time. We can't 'play the ball' if we give it away so easily. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Annoyed me second half when the ball was layed back to him on his right foot and he went on to cross it with his left foot, straight to the keeper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well no, a lack of a quality right back is the actual problem. It shackles our possession play in that we can only really effectively go down one side of the field with short controlled passing. It was horrific to watch the first 5/6 games of the season without Santon where neither fullback was able to play a simple possession game when the need arose. With Santon half the problem is solved, but we cannot go back to that lopsided approach that we had last season with Enrique and Jonas. We must sign a footballing right back in the summer and I would expect a significant improvement in our overall play if we did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
