Mick Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Eh? He makes mistakes others don't. He makes mistakes and gets blamed for them while others can make the same mistakes and get away with making them. Is that easier to understand? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He makes mistakes and gets blamed for them while others can make the same mistakes and get away with making them. Is that easier to understand? Mick's got a point, defensively Simpson just about makes the grade. Notfor a top six team though. Unfortunately as a footballer he's barely a premier league player. He can't cross, dribble, shoot or handle too much pressure. I think he gets too much flack but he's still not a good enough footballer if we want to go for top six year on year Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think him and possibly Pardew think he has earn't the right to prove it next season, and tbf he probably has. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Did not want them to go. He drove Simpson and Obertan to us. Honestly cant't believe that anyone other than Stevie Wonder thinks Simpson can defend. Other players double up to help him and he mostly gets beat one on one. I have bbm from 2 Toon players who say he is s*** in training and the weak link in the team, maybe they are wrong but then again what do they know.................................................. Anyone got the Messi one? That was f***ing hilarious Can't remember who did it. http://i.imgur.com/WxiTG.jpg I really tried my best, but I just couldn't achieve the same level of smug. Sorry lads. I'm also in the toilets, which didn't really help me get into the role. :lol: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest magpie99 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I beieve he is on his way in the summer to a lower/midtable team because the clib wont pay him what he wants and he can see that we will bring in several defenders in the summer which will result in him being a back up at best. IMO, next season will see Santon at rb with Clyne signed as back up, Tavernier also in contention, Pieters at left back woth Clune also back up and Perch, Raylor and Fergie all able to do a job there.

He makes mistakes and gets blamed for them while others can make the same mistakes and get away with making them. Is that easier to understand? I haven't seen anyone else make mistakes as stupid as his 'tackle' and dive against brighton and throw in against Arsenal. I take your point in general but i'm not sure how relevant it is. He's certainly not a scapegoat for anything, he just stands out a mile because he's not good enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bimpy474 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 For £3.5m i'll come up and give him a saddler to Villa on my sons Tomahawk, it says no giving people saddlers but i dont care, i'm a rebel like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Ah look, something else that I've found: Gasuso deleted his account yesterday. Anyway he's back under the username "osusag".

mattypnufc Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Honestly can't understand the shit that Simpson gets on here. Alright he's not great, and wouldn't be first choice if we got someone better than him in obviously, but he's decent backup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 To be honest he has picked up lately and as part of a squad I would keep. He is not good on the ball though. From a work ethic point of view he works as hard as anyone, and has stopped backing off quite as much. I like him tbh as a squad player. Would like some competition out there though, it may help him lift his game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliottman Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Honestly can't understand the s*** that Simpson gets on here. Alright he's not great, and wouldn't be first choice if we got someone better than him in obviously, but he's decent backup. So you can understand it? It is over the top at times, but I think the majority are happy for him to see the season out as long as he's replaced in the summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirge Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Simpsons main problem is he thinks he is the greatest RB ever, and with no competition for his starting place he thinks he can demand what ever terms he wants on a new contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, which is why I would add competition rather than sell him. He is a very good squad player I think Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Simpson's best games are when we sit back and defend (Stoke away, Swansea away etc.), because he is a decent defender with his backing-off-tendencies decreasing in the past year. He's a decent when it comes to tackling and just being in the way of his winger. However, the number of games when we sit back is getting fewer and will probably get fewer in the coming years if we continue to improve. I think Williamson's big minus is how frightened he is of the ball, but he can get away with it as Coloccini handles most of the passing out of defence. But Simpson and Williamson forming that right hand partnership of our defence, it prevents us from starting a number of attacks. They very rarely play it out of there, and for us to be able to develop our attacking play with the player's we've got going forward, Simpson needs replacing, preferably with Santon.

David Icke - Son of God Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I hope he signs, just because we're going to need a bit of depth if we get into Europe. He shouldn't be first choice though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 If he signs a new 5 year deal I can't see it being as a squad player. He'd want assurances from the manager about being considered a first team player before he puts pen to paper surely? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
