Why is anyone remotely surprised that Simpson is being considered for a call-up Spot on no reason why he cannot take the RB role away from Johnson , its not like we have loads of talented English right backs.

Johnson is a much better RB than Simpson. Have you ever actually seen Johnson play? He's fucking shit! He's decent going forward but defensively he's an absolute disaster.

Ginola Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Mediocre is kind. This. He was below par against Blackburn really, was very impressive against Arsenal and the unwashed though. Putting him in the England squad would be a bit of a snap decision like, he has been better than most English RBs since he's come back, but he's only been back 3 games, needs to show a bit more consistency first really. Micah Richards is definitely Englands best choice at right back at the moment, Johnson is pure s****. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnson is a much better RB than Simpson. Have you ever actually seen Johnson play? He's f***ing s***! He's decent going forward but defensively he's an absolute disaster. Of course I've seen Johnson play. I think you would be in the minority if you continue to insist that Danny Simpson is better than Johnson. Remember that we are talking about Danny Simpson, who the majority of Newcastle fans were convinced was not good enough for the Premiership last season. He has played ok in the handful of games that he is played this season and you reckon he should now be playing England??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Johnson is first choice RB this France game is a chance to look at other options so Simpson deserves a shot.. for me there is not that much difference.. I see Johnson as more of a winger playing at fullback, Simpson is deffo more of a defender. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not suggesting that Danny Simpson should be England's first choice right back. What I am suggesting is that given how shit Glen Johnson is, the prospect of Danny Simpson getting a call-up to the England squad is not all that unrealistic.

BlueStar Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Good stuff, can't say I personally rate him as highly as that but it'll give him more experience, increase his value and mean he goes to the top of the list of Newcastle defenders other clubs might want to nick. And if he plays and he's shit, who cares? It's only England. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEA Mag Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 If he gets picked it is testament to CH's management ability that we are producing 2 new England Internationals (AC and DS), and also in reviving the career of Barton (until his silly punch).
