What on Earth is to hate about him?

Perhaps his ego? He has his own website 'coming soon!', constantly retweets any mention of him in an England shirt (dream on) and he's made his own fucking app for Christ's sake. If he was actually a bit good, then this constant media-whoring of himself would be a lot less irksome.

 

Note how since Steven Taylor has now started looking like a very good PL defender, far less people criticise him for being the club's official soundbite machine.

That's crazy, like. Torn apart by Jerome Thomas and Max Gradel, and still dares to tweet that s***. :lol:

As someone who knows his adopted relatives ... more than may be obvious ... though arrogance would pretty much sum it up (forgetting your roots etc.) I won't say more because I respect the people who know more than me and won't cause them problems.

What was the point in that?

Fair enough, personally I don't pay attention to any of that, didn't even know about it, I just think he's done a good job for NUFC and been one of only three consistent team members in a period where we've come from right down in the doldrums to where we are now and has been a big part of the team spirit that has carried right through. He's not a great player by any stretch of the imagination but he's never hid, played nearly every game across three massive seasons for us, played out of position when asked and never been an ounce of bother despite looking like he might be a prime candidate for it on the surface. If we didn't sign footballers who were arrogant, we'd barely be able to put a squad together.

 

I say all this as someone who really disliked him as a player when he first arrived too, thought he was barely a Championship player but he's an average Premier League full back, which is absolutely fine for where we've been in recent times.

 

Just get a bit sick of people saying they hate our players, even on a personal level, who've done nothing to deserve it, Guthrie and Lovenkrands are another two examples. Now Alan Smith - there's somebody we can all be united in detesting.

:thup:

 

I actually didn't mind Simpson as a player when he first arrived. He was just what we needed, ie. an actual right back after Beye left.

 

He did have an uncertain start to this season admittedly (which is really down to personal problems) but he has definitely improved as the season has progressed imo. As it stands, he should definitely remain the first choice RB. Perhaps he isn't the long term option but he would certainly be great back up. He's 24 so there is still some time for him to improve his game and you never know, he could develop into a great fullback in the next couple of seasons or so.

I don't see much of an ego, as for his re-tweeting, website and his app, so what?  Even the media whoring, all he's done is put across where he is with his contract negotiations and I don't see why that should be seen as a problem as all it does it stops people making shit up about him wanting to leave.  I'm sure he was getting stick on twitter and has just tried to put an end to speculation.

 

It seems strange that any of the above would bother anybody.

Good point about Simpson never hiding. He might not be the best player ability wise but he always shows for the ball and gives it 100%. We still need a better rb but he's done a job since he's been here, although whether he's worth giving a big contract to I'm not sure. I'd rather spend the money on a quality left back and put Santon on the right personally. Although ideally we could keep both.

Really getting sick of his hoofing and the fact that he floats in every cross.

 

1 driven cross all match. Not bothered with him rejecting a contract offer from us, he can go play for someone else for all I care.

We simply won't progress with a fullback who can't keep the ball on the deck for 5 seconds. Not saying we should get rid, because I very much doubt we can find a better replacement with this regime, but for me he is a huge weak link in what is otherwise a promising team. Very frustrating.

His now trademark look up and hoof is getting tedious. A steady 'backup' but when we have such a ball player at left back it's useless having him here.
