Jay Simpson scores for West Brom: Loan Update

January 14, 2009

Jay Simpson scored West Brom’s first goal last night against Peterborough in the FA Cup 3rd Round replay, which helped them to a 2 – 0 win.

He scored on 17 minutes,and was was replaced by Craig Beattie in the 71st minute, but great to see him get his first Baggies goal.
Jay has got me quite excited this season, his goal in the Carling Cup against Wigan was sublime, and the experience he will get with West Brom is invaluble. He is performing well for them and the more goals and games he gets the better!

Next season I think he could be challenging for a place in the Arsenal first team.

What are your opinions?

Update: Watch the highlights here, at ITV. (Thanks to Dosboss for the link)

    I prefer him up front than Bendtner.

    Why keep Bendtner and send Simpson on loan?

    Sell Bendtner and bring back Simpson.

    As I West Brom fan, I have to say that Jay Simpson has to be an Arsenal star of the future. It’s not only his footballing skill, but also his attitude and temperament that have been noted in the Midlands. Have you got anymore you don’t want for 6 months!!!

    Just happy to see that he’s at a club with good ‘footballing’ principles. Hope you guys manage to stay up and that he plays a key role for you…

    I think that’s a well taken goal, by anyone’s standards.

    Baggies fan here, I’ve gotta say I am really impressed with this lad, as mentioned above, his attitude is first class, he’s tireless and clearly has all the attributes to be an Arsenal first teamer in my opinion.

    I hope his goals can keep us in the Premiership, the more footballing teams in there, the better!

    Cheers Daniel, good to see some Baggies fans on here!

    I reckon Simpson has what it takes, he has looked very good for West Brom in his first few games!
