How about goals per minute against teams beginning with the letter
You're just arguing for the sake of arguing as per.
You think Tavares is shit. I'm saying he's not very good. Yet you're finding a way to argue because...reasons.

I mean godden did have service today .. but what is this whole Passion nonsense that fans crave so much and why does it make you a better player ?

Simms is a quality addition. His hold up play was decent.
Ffs he has goal scorer instincts. He will bag easily 13-15 goals minimum this season. I'm confident of that.

Vik missed a fair few one on ones too! Sometimes a couple in same match! It happens.

Haven't seen it mentioned in any other threads...but Vik played at goodison yesterday for Sporting...lost 1 nil against a very poor Everton. He didn't get a sniff!

Sunderland fan I work with told me Simms was a slow starter with them last season, but then combined well with Stewart who Wright looks quite similar to, so I'm looking forward to seeing them play together. They both have the height and stature to really put it to Championship defences.
Stewart is a slow twig, can score but can’t hold ball at his feet while running, hopefully this wright will be more than that, he looked fast yesterday and a great first touch him and simms could be deadly especially when our wingbacks get fully fit and can bomb up and down the wing, 6ft 4” and 6ft 3” hanging around the box should cause issues alone.

Simms played very little football after returning to Everton.
Give him a bit of time an I'm sure he'll come good.
I think Robins will be really pleased with the 3 strikers he's got to work with.

I like how Simms caused havoc with long ball bounces. We're normally shit with the hoof

I wouldn't call it passion, I'd describe it as a will to win, a willingness to give 100% and battle for every ball.
Roy Keane had it in spades.
Gyok had it.
It's way to early to say if Simms has it, he needs a few games to settle in. But It's fair to say that he had a poor game yesterday, and so did Godden. I'm hoping it's just rust, and a few days training will make the difference.

The problem is if 'the will to win' doesn't manifest itself as acting like a maniac people take it as a sign of an attitude problem.
I'm sure some people would have interpreted Hamers early disciplinary record as will to win whereas in reality he's a far greater asset now he's not acting like a prat.

Haven’t read this thread but first impressions are that there’s a player in there. But like when Gyokeres got here and he had this funny ability of never making me feel like he was actually fully in control of the ball, but still an absolute menace
think he will keep defenders very busy and, hard to tell from such a short performance, but if Wright can be as dangerous as he was yesterday then they could be a real force up front
funny old game isn’t it, Godden could have had a hat trick

He wasn’t the only one who looked like his boots were magnetically repelling the ball to be fair.

Huh? I'm on about it not being a funny old game

Funny thing is the one he got a good connection on instinctively, he wishes he mishit as that would have been a goal! Funny old game!
