Dave Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 He's on twitter complaining that some of the abuse he's been sent has been personal and included stuff about his family. Don't know why some people have to be mega twats. Aye, ludicrous. Just makes the fans look like cunts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Would love to see Tavernier recalled and given a run This. Tav has the pace to make up for possible positional errors/nerves. Simpson does too but it somehow hinders him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomlkier Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 You just knew from the minute he started running back that it was going to be a disaster. How the f*** did he think that was a good idea? That tweet is such bullshit. Not once have we ever done that in a game before. He tried it against Rooney's free kick when we played Man Utd, leading to Utd players being right on Krul and we ended up conceding a goal from it. That made it so much more frustrating, twice now that we probably wouldn't have conceded goals if we just had faith in a keeper who is one of the best shot stoppers in the league.

He didn't, I've just watched it again, it's Steven Taylor who does it against Man Utd so it obviously is something that has been instructed by the manager. My mind can't even begin to comprehend what a stupid fucking tactic that is, to let the opposition be able to stand right in front of the goalkeeper when you're facing a free kick. Staggering incompetence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frazzle Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Now you're just being stupid and talking in the heat of the moment. Tavernier is a untested (in the top flight) youngster and really isn't the answer. Throwing him in halfway through the season when Simpson is still fit is asking a bit much but come the start of next season it should be a straight duel between them, Simpson should be guaranteed nothing.

Well it's another sign of his mental collapse. Should never be trying shit like that. Especially when it's fucking Bellamy taking the free-kick.

Staggering incompetence. Ah, you're right, just watched it again too. I suppose it's justifiable if you have a bad keeper, but there's no reason why Krul should need the extra support. If it's a cracking freekick then it deserves to be a goal, I would rather we concede to an inch perfect effort than handing out easy goals with shoddy tactics.

Tavernier is a untested (in the top flight) youngster and really isn't the answer. Agreed, it's all very well that he's getting some first team experience on loan but it would be a mistake to throw him into the deep end straightaway. Tavernier struggled in pre-season imo so he's still some way from the first team really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

madras Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Disapointin night 4 every1.. There freekick is something that is worked on in training n just went badly tonight, we do it everygame for every freekick! We r positive n time 2 take more points off utd on wed So, he's not sorry. Entirely Simpson's fault; it went 'badly' because of his actions alone. how was it his fault ? a tactic the club has employed before and both he and krul bottled it, i'll blame the keeper more cos i'm old fashioned and expect the keeper to flatten any of his team to get the ball. (or like krul/don't like simpson so blame simpson entirely ?) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that they haven't but that seems to have been forgotten by most people. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Tavernier is going to be a canny player, whether its too soon for him to play in the premier is possibly right, then again he cant do worse than Simpson, sometimes you stick a kid in and he takes to it like a duck to water, its depends on how much bottle Pardew has and that doesn't appear to be much if his recent selections are anything to go by.

Last night was Simpson's worst performance in a NUFC shirt, no doubt. But I still think Danny isn't that bad. The one thing that does worry me about Simpson though is his lack of progression in terms of his forward play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainhaircut Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I've said a number of times on here that the problem with Simpson is that he thinks he's good. He's on twitter calling Dzeko and Fabio 'pony', he's retweeting every twat who says he should be playing for England, he's on Talksport complaining because Capello doesn't come to SJP. His game hasn't developed since we signed him 2 and a half years ago. He's not up to it, he won't improve and he won't be happy sitting on the bench. The only option is to move him on. I'll dream of us signing Cissokho so we can play him and Santon at full back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenige Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Part of the problem is I've never ever seen him look comfortable on the ball. When you need full backs to help develop your game from the back players like him who panic and hoof or dawdle on the ball do us no favours whatsoever.
