Even in the prem? If we get promoted do you still give him one season? Do you keep him in as a squad player or do you get rid?

He is relatively young and I think, like Gyok, he will suddenly peak. One more season left for me to progress or we flog him.

People can say what they like about him and have their opinion of him. But he is the only player we have who has scored in The Premier League.
We are still a long way off anyone having the opportunity to better that.
I did stick up for him especially earlier in the season when everyone was shite and he seemed to get unfairly singled out. Hard to say anything other than he's been poor stats wise but I can see that rightly or wrongly defenders are scared of him. It is massively frustrating as he's played so well in certain games.
Total conjecture but what I think from every bit of press or interview is that he comes across really shy and a bit awkward, I honestly think most of his issues are in his head. He should be doing better and has a lot of the raw attributes that you'd want. He seems really affected by bad form and having audible moans when he gets a touch can't help. As someone else mentioned I wish we'd go the other way and really try going OTT with songs and stuff see if that gets him out his shell. We have a lot of money tied up in him it's got to be worth a go.
God knows if any of the players read this nonsense on here but I don't really see the point in ragging on players especially now especially when there are no other options.
Most games he doesn't score !!I think we need to find another striker next season. Simms has all the tools, but can’t seem to put it together consistently. He should get 20 a season on his attributes really but most games doesn’t look like scoring, so frustrating. I hope I’m wrong like I have been on a lot of players!
until Recently, we’ve never really had prolific goal scorers, even Regis didn’t score many but his work rate was outstanding, it’s not always about the goals, but simms problem is when he’s not scoring it looks like he doesn’t offer much either, personally I’d still keep him, good to have off the bench, frustrating that for the size of him he should be battering defenders,Most games he doesn't score !!

Great point, if he could just give us a bit more he’d be ok for us, he shows signs, thought He looked a bit quicker Friday,Go through this and other than names like Wilson, McNulty, Gyokeres, most of our top scorers have scored about what Simms does. We’ve been spoiled with Godden Vil and Wright to think every striker is a 20-a-season player.

He was brilliant against Wolves and Man United. Better than I've seen him against any Championship opponent (Rotherham don't count.) It's so weird.Weirdly you could argue his best performances came against premier league opposition
Sheffield Wednesday.So what we’ve summoned is he needs to play either really good or really bad teams.
Pretty sure Simms was dragged down by one of the WBA defenders in the second half and should have earned a penalty.Simms while not scoring goals still gives defenders problems like rudonis goal he occupied the centre halfs and it left a gap for rudoni sakamoto had a similar chance but the ball was played behind him. Simms will still score goals he's got another big goal or two left in him this season keep the faith pusb

Sargent is superb at this levelJosh Sargent might make a very interesting partner for Haji when we go up. Just a thought but those two are the stand out strikers in the Championship.
He should love games like this, need to coach him in the summer to be a nasty bastard.We will need him for the physical battle up front today, Saka and Wright won’t relish it.
We’ve scored 61 goals in the league this season, with 6 of them coming from Simms. OK fine, maybe he should have scored 20 by now, that puts us on 75 - for context that’s more than any team bar Leeds in the entire EFL (Birmingham are on 73!)
I’ve been disappointed in Simms for large parts of the season, but I think it’s fair to say that this team is not wanting for goals, and as the striker who’s played more minutes up front than any other player, he’s clearly played his part in that. To demand that he becomes a 20-goal striker is to essentially insist that we should be winning the league at a canter.

If Simms had scored 20 goals this season AND the rest of the side was scoring at the same rate then I think we would probably be up there challenging for the autos. I just don’t know if you realistically could have both - if so then maybe this was a top 3 deck after all; if not then it seems harsh to criticise the striker in a team that scores goals extremely frequently.Not really is it , Norwich have scored more goals than us but sit mid table .
We would almost definitely be on more points in the league if simms had taken a few more of his chances
