      Because he wasn't considered good enough for a system we don't play.

          Because we were going to play without fullbacks until week before he was sold - strange

                      I cant believe we spent all preseason preparing for 3-5-2, brought hoddle in, bought players that specifically play in this formation (ie isla), got rid of others that dont suit it (ie simpson) and then scrapped it after 2 games

                        I never had much faith in Simpson as a defender - he was prone to sloppiness. I admit I was a lone voice amongst my mates with that view so I felt vindicated when we let him go. I agree that it currently does not like Isla is an improvement though. Phillips is a big unit. Given he seems to have limited effect as a winger/wideman I'd be curious to see him have a go at right back.

                          Absolute shocker of a decision in my opinion. Not the greatest going forward but decent enough defender to stop most, certainly bottom-half team, wingers in this league

                            And then to hear Harry in a press conference say we struggling because we have no right back........... bizarre

                              Great back up defender who we sold to one of our rivals. Madness. If Isla gets injured, who do we have that is a natural RB? I dont trust Ned at RB and Phillips/Hoilett hardly inspire confidence.
