Typical bed wetters response.
No ones writing him off, no ones saying he won't be the answer.
People are just saying he's been poor so far.
That's fair comment. He's the only new signing that hasn't shown promise yet, but that may come. (Hopefully soon)
He was given a chance today, against a team he should of been motivated for, but he failed to impress. He can't blame MR for not giving him a chance.
Now stop jumping up and down, stop pulling your hair out, and just calm down.
I’d give him longer than that to be honest the money we’ve spunked on him!
I just think everyone expected better than what he’s shown so far.
Micky Adams shelling out 900k on Kevin Kyle when we were skint has scarred me!!
Let’s hope so , and I will hold my hand up and personally apologise to Ellis for saying what I thought at the beginning of the season, eat humble pie and show my arse on the town hall steps .This is one of them threads that come back to haunt many at the end of the season
I'm sure he will, his issue is (imo) that MR needs results, and may well bring another striker in before the window closes,My point is, give the lad a chance. I had people around me today moaning ‘do something’ after 20 mins, some on here saying he’s shite. The guys not messi. Give him service and support and he’ll be fine

Four goals?I still think he will end up the top scorer.
Didn’t Wright cost 3 times the amount of Simms, yet there doesn’t seem to be anywhere near the same pressure?I'm sure he will, his issue is (imo) that MR needs results, and may well bring another striker in before the window closes,
if that happens Simms may well find himself 4th choice, which isn't ideal given his price tag.
It wouldn't be the end of the world for him as he's still very young, and he may actually benefit by having some time out of the spotlight and some extra time on the training ground to find his feet here.

Yes, but Wright has a goal and an assist in less minutes than Simms has had.Didn’t Wright cost 3 times the amount of Simms, yet there doesn’t seem to be anywhere near the same pressure?
Oh jeez, more fucking bed wetting!Fuck me we are writing him off after 4 games , anyone remember vik after four games ??????????
Quick pin this thread
Not bed wetting , just speaking facts this forum and people on it would have being asking why we bought Vik 4 games in …: then look what happened , appreciate football is about opinions but fuck me trust robins and his staff !Oh jeez, more fucking bed wetting!
Far more love for him as well, even little things like he has a song and Simms doesn’t. He is still young and needs time.
He will. Just needs time to settle. It's not just him coming in, it's coming into virtually a whole new team that are finding their feet.Simms is shite in almost every way and will have to improve significantly even to be an at all valuable member of the squad.
Been watching the Burnley programme about last season and they started very slowly but once they clicked they were great to watch and hard to beat. We will improve , even without the massive squad investment , we always finish the season strongly under RobinsHave to be honest, I'm stunned by a lot of the comments on today's game. We have a lot of new players combined with the loss of Hamer a week into the season, it isn't going to click for some time.
What is missing above anything else is the kind of interplay that you get with more cohesion in the squad. That funnily enough takes time to build.
I think if he gets the service he will score plenty , he isn’t a player that will link play or hold it up he wants the ball facing the goal and more balls delivered into the penalty area . He is a very natural finisher from what ive seen of him at in his career so farVik joined us after hardly playing any football with Swansea, mainly sub appearances. That initial loan to us, I think he scored 3 goals in 18 odd games. Was alright. Many hear we’re surprised we then spent £1m odd on him. He then got a full pre season under his belt and hit the ground running the following season.
Simms was starting to find form in the first part of the 22/23 season with Sunderland. Got recalled by Everton and hardly played. Got a goal against Chelsea of course. He’s got a pre-season with us and he’s now getting game time again.
I honestly think there are some comparisons here with between the 2 players. It’s going to just take a little bit of time. I think by October onwards he will start to get into his stride. There is also an element where there are a lot of new players including himself who are trying to learn each others game.
Given the service, that old cliche. I'd score goals if they were served up on a plate....its a very tiring excuse.I think if he gets the service he will score plenty , he isn’t a player that will link play or hold it up he wants the ball facing the goal and more balls delivered into the penalty area .

Simms probably wasn't lookingIf da Silva would put the ball into the box early rather than fucking about with it he might have something to get on the end of

Does that explain why hes had about 10 touches of the ball in 4 games? Everyone else seems to have settled and managed to touch the ball by now. Maybe he should ask to take throw ins.He will. Just needs time to settle. It's not just him coming in, it's coming into virtually a whole new team that are finding their feet.
But what about that goal he scored for Everton on the Sky Tv?I don’t care about the reaction, waste of money! Everton rubbing their hands to the bank. Comparing him to vik who cost a fraction of the price is quite frankly ridiculous. Poor signing!
