Danny Simpson (Premier League Champion)

Probably one of the worst full-back performances I've ever seen today. Positionally he just has no idea. The amount of times he gets caught inside looking lost is ridiculous, when he pushes forward he never tracks back and EVERY SINGLE time he gives the player three yards to cross the ball. Does he ever attend training? If so, are they not telling him these basic defending principals for a laugh? The amount of time he plays someone onside the stops as if to say 'well if I stop he must be offside' make me want to tear my hair out. And going forward I'd rather have Williamson trying to hit a cross. He's just utterly fucking useless. If he isn't replaced in January (I'd probably take a mannequin from John Lewis) after he moves to QPR for £80k a week then I'd be staggered. I'm amazed we don't have a 14 year old in one of the youth teams who isn't better than him. Just shit.

 

Whoah, you can't say that man! He's positionally sound and is a more than competent defender according to some on here.

Last minute. Everyone in the box. Comes out to Danny Simpson 30 yards and he fucking volleys it first time :lol:

 

Thought the same. Going for personal glory in that situation is just not accaptable. Even more so when you're just Danny Simpson.

Simpson lacks the sense to ever make it as a professional footballer - so how he fucking managed it I have no clue.  Whatever level he ends up being demoted to he will still play the same extremely limited game and still make the same massive errors. 

 

Oh, but he's an athlete who gets lucky now and then...

He's not really that athletic.

We went deep into the Champions League with some absolutely shocking players at the back.

 

They were better, than the lot we have now though.

Aaron Hughes and Andy Griffin were better than him by miles, as average as they were.

Got to say how awful he looked again today, hopefully the manager and board saw the same things the fans did and not the one moment of decent play from him. Make you nervous as hell when the ball goes his way and offensively 99/100 kills our attacking momentum. Clearly we need a different type of full back with the way we play.

I liked Griffin. Tidy on-the-ball, and he let his opposite number know they were in for a contest. Just a pity that his body couldn't keep with his robust style.

 

Because the wing-battle is arguably the most isolated match-up on the park i'm not objectionable to seeing a fb laying into his man with a robust challenge, especially early. I like to see a fb knock a bit of the bravado out of a winger- create a bit of doubt, so they ll look to play the easy inside ball, ultimately smothering their width and penetration down one flank..

 

Simpson isn't a modern day attacking fb (as he tried to demonstrate today with his showboating at an opportune time in attack). Nor is he a shutdown specialist in defense, not even remotely close.  Right up there with Ramag  in the fucking limited footballer department. made worse when coupled with the billy bigbollocks persona. Ryder will probably get his usual in-the-aftermath (with the call to arms shite) exclusive though, ahead of the arsenal fixture
