Actually think Simpson is the type of player Pardew likes, solid and full of awareness in defending(His concentration level is Pretty good, something that i think S Talyor still Lacks.). He just can't contribute to the attacking part of the game which handicaps us on some levels.

 

I think we can do better with the already names of players being touted about, If we are a defense 1st team, Simpson is still a key player for us. Just look at it from Pardew's point of view and selections, the high concentration and hard working players are those he flavor the most.

Nothing in that and even if it were we have much bigger problems than upgrading Simpson now unfortunately.

 

He's still the weakest player in our first choice XI.

 

True but even so with how we are playing at the moment i'm not sure we would get the best out of almost any signing we would make.

 

The way we are playing is more of a concern to me at the moment than any potential signings.

Whilst it by no means excuses the style of football we're currently producing, a proper RB would help us out. We're extremely unbalanced at the moment. Santon gets into good attacking positions and overlaps whoever is on the left but on the right we're pretty much solely relying on Ben Arfa to create everything. I struggle to think of Simpson getting into the box which doesn't help us out one bit. Signing a RB to replace Simpson would at least offer us another outlet down that side of the pitch.

We're like the shopper that goes into Sainsburys and looks through the dented tins looking for a bargain.

 

Aye, and come back with a tin of lentil soup and a pork pie on the outs when the wife originally sent us out for a onion.

Be nice if Santon actually crossed from his left once in a while. That stopping, turning around and giving it to someone else thing is starting to get on my nerves tbh.

It's like the old cookery show where someone gives the chef a sausage, a tub of lard and some lettuce and goes "there you go, make a meal out of that!"

Debuchy remains keen on the switch and Newcastle know that his arrival would dramatically increase their chances of holding on to his best friend, Yohan Cabaye.

 

Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal both showed an interest in Cabaye in the summer and Newcastle do not want to lose their playmaking central midfielder.

 

Lille have proved to be difficult negotiators, twice increasing the asking price for the France international, prompting Newcastle managing director Derek Llambias to pull out of talks.

 

Newcastle were initially led to believe the full-back would be available for around £5 million, but Lille, with their coffers swelled by the sale of Eden Hazard to Chelsea for £32 million, raised that to £8 million.

 

Llambias is likely to return with a bid of around £7 million and the Newcastle hierarchy are confident the deal will happen as Debuchy continues to push for the move.

Probably as meaningless as the other link but what ever.
