Guest toonlass Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 Why was he backing off from a player who was stood still yesterday? Ridiculous! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 He needs competition to push on his development. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 Depending on how we end up strengthening other more important areas i would not mind us go for a better RB and have him as backup, i would say that he's our weakest link apart from our so called strike force!

BONTEMPI Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 He's quite average, but age is on his side. I'd still rather sign a cheap but establised RB as he gives nothing going forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir_9 Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 Is it me or does he far too often let the opposing winger get a cross in? It's his biggest flaw. He constantly backs off and doesn't get tight enough to the winger. His backing off annoys the hell out of me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted May 8, 2011 Share Posted May 8, 2011 He was very poor against Birmingham. He had more space than usual and less containment to do after the sending off, and he still failed to stop the cross from Beausejour more often than not. At times he makes no attempt at all to block the cross. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 To say "we have to replace him" is way, way over the top. He might be 6th or 7th on the list of first team players we can improve on, but that's as far as I'd go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 If we somehow buy a striker, another striker, a right winger, a left winger, a backup DM, (all of which are significantly better than the players currently playing those roles) and a replacement for Enrique if necessary, I'd start thinking about supplanting Simpson. Even then it's a toss-up with Williamson as to who needs to lose his place first. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's young, and has grafted for us. He deserves a proper chance. Although, there would be no harm bringing in a younger player to compete for his position.

Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Oh, ok. To me, someone 'seriously needing replacing' is canny polar opposite to being 5th or 6th on the list of players needing replacing. I do speak quite sensible English though, so I suppose it's my fault. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't matter though, can't see him being replaced this summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EthiGeordie Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 If people think we need to replace him it just shows how extreme their views are.... He is the 7the or 8the best players we have at the club and we are no where near in replacing those players.... Clubs like Man Shity replace players like that we dont... We should give the lad a lengthy contract... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Doesn't need replacing whatsoever atm. It is his first proper season in the Premiership and he has done alright (well, he has exceeded my expectations at least). Hopefully he'll improve next season, if not then we might have to explore other options. In any case, I'd keep him at the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rey Mysterio Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 After strikers he is definitely the first guy that needs replacing. Usually poor, occasionally dreadful. Needs to sort his attitude out too. He spends far too long protesting his innocence, trying to blame others for his shortcomings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shaun Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 I think all he needs is a few tweaks. He gets into the right positions defensively and attacking wise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
