He's that good not a single premier league team has tried to sign him. Massively overated on this forum. 

 

He’s not though

If puel was leaving out Vardy or Ndidi then I'd agree. But he's not. Not particularly bothered that Fuchs, Simpson & Okazaki are not starting games anymore. 

Just think its strange that Puel would leave out a better player in that role. If he wants to attack more fair enough play Pereira. Fact is Amartey was really poor on Friday and if Puel wants to play politics with players he doesn't like we will be worse off for it.

Albrighton is clearly not match fit (judging on the Lille game)

 

Diabate isn't ready.

 

Ghezzal has only been at the club for a week.

 

It isn't hard to understand why he played Pereira at RW as we don't have anyone who was able to play in that position on Friday & to add some protection. Amartey played Right back because puel clearly prefers him. It ain't that deep

I'm not arsed if he wants to play Pereira wide I have a problem with playing Amartey behind him when we have a better player in Simpson for that position. Amartey gave away a penalty, got booked and got hooked on Friday. He didn't play well. Puel isn't playing Simpson because of non footballing reasons.

[Foxxed]

Amartey got subbed because Puel is trying to bring out Ghezzal's former form.

 

He's not going to do that by letting Ghezzal rot on the bench.

 

Moving Richardo back and taking off Amartey is the most sensible thing to do.

Simpson literally handed Kane a goal on a plate in the game last season. Teams set up and purposely exploit him as he's our 'weak link'. 15/16 and 16/17 he was 'consistent and reliable'. Not anymore. 

The whole defence was an abomination that day, as was most of the team.

In what way?

Arguing Amartey is currently a better defensive right back than Simpson is pretty pointless.

I think Simpson is not being played for footballing reasons though. What are the non footballing reasons being cited on here?

And depending what those non footballing reasons are, and none of us know, that's probably a very good reason not to pick him.

Too early to go on the assumption trail, let's get a few games behind us,and how team selections become more of a routine.

we have now a new face to the squad,I am sure other players might also be given a chan ce while Puel makes small alterations

here and there. Giving away a silly penalty will not have an effect on Puels ideas on using/selecting Amartey.

foreign managers will use early season to put forward and select various permatations,how deep Puel will go and what flexability,we

can expect to see,will take a few more games.

Who's better at possession football, Simpson or Amartey? Who struggled to play Puel's football last season, Simpson or Amartey? Who publicly said he's struggling but trying to cope with Puel's new style of play, Simpson or Amartey?

 

From other posts, you clearly don't like Puel because he's got a man bag, because he's not "one of the lads", but dramatising a clash of personalities which is more a clash of footballing styles to make Puel look like he's vindictively destroying the career of one of title winners seems like desperation.

Whatever. Personally I prefer my right back to not give Man Utd a goal head start 3 minutes in than than how well he can touch the ball out of play like Amartey did Friday night.

The non-football reason being that he wants his full backs to be able to play football, and not get a nose bleed if they go beyond the edge of their own box? Simpson doesn't fit into this system, everything since January has made that painfully obvious.

Is that not a football-related reason? The allusion being made is, I think, to do with excess drinking.

Either way, he's not the future. 

[Max Wall]

Is this the Puel in thread or the Simpson in thread?

Either way, Puel has to solve the right back position, otherwise it'll just be another stick to beat him with.

It is. I'm inferring that Sharpe's thinks Puel is playing politics and is of the opinion Simpson should be starting. Excess drinking or no, Simpson doesn't have a place in this set up, he's been woefully exposed as we develop from a defence that just defends and doesn't participate in any attacks

You do realise Simpson gave away a penalty at Old Trafford the last time we played there with a handball don't you?

 

He's also stuck his hand out and been penalised or got very very lucky more than most in our team. Southampton, got away with it. Bournmouth, got away with it. Old trafford, penalty, at Stoke, penalty. And they are just the ones off the top of my head.

Those were all Puel's fault.

I don’t care about all this Amartey v Simpson stuff. My view is still that @sylofox is a bit of a wally...
