Dinho lad Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Don't know why it takes us to bring someone-in to challenge for his position to get improvement out of him. Credit where it's due though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superior Acuña Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Felt more confident with him than Debuchy today. Also, while of course it's what happens on pitch that counts most but do appreciate him coming to fans like he did at the end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crumpy Gunt Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 He's a serviceable RB, could certainly do worse for a back-up. Hope he stays. I wouldn't let Debuchy back in the team next week. Simpson was decent today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

healthyaddiction Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 It's a shame he's going really. I wouldn't mind so much if we had a talented young right back coming through but we don't really seem to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest palnese Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Always gave his all for the shirt, and for that he gets my respect. Decent enough defender, but as a footballer he's one of the worst I've ever seen. Good luck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Swiss lad is meant to be ok for RB, quite highly rated too. Not anywhere near ready yet though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Flash Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Always gave his all for the shirt He's one of the most spineless players I've ever seen for us. Always hiding and blaming others. Hope he signs for another PL club so we can see Atam running at him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 He's done very well defensively since that awful game at Arsenal. Deserves a lot of credit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 He's acted very professionally since Debuchy came in, well except that getting duffed up nonsense but overall he reacted superbly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tavernier? I'll be stunned if Tavernier makes. He's 21 (22 in October), his only consistent games have been in League 1 and he's looked ropey whenever he's played for our first team (If I remember correctly that Epstein lad from Atromitos ripped him to bits for about 20 mins in that game).

ujpest doza Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Disapointing that we aren't offering him a new contract as i think he's a decent defender who holds his position and defends, and doesn't try anything fancy. He's not a right winger or a midfield player so i don't understand why people expect him to be. He's an honest pro and as a defender only i don't really see Debuchy as being a big upgrade.

Rich Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I think modern fullbacks are increasingly expected to contribute in the final third, given how tightly the play gets squeezed in other positions. In the current climate they are usually the biggest outlets, even for the best teams. Simpson embodies the type of player we should be looking to improve on.

BillClinton Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Will he now start on Sunday so we (you) can say goodbye? Would everyone actually cheer him off? Anyone who helped drag us out of the championship deserves it in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 He's done very well defensively since that awful game at Arsenal. Deserves a lot of credit. He has. Sadly, it's too little too late and doesn't excuse the multitude of garbage performances up until that point. Will be glad when he leaves; time for Tavernier to step up to second choice. He'll get picked up by a promoted side IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
