Of course he is a better all round player, he's going to cost £60-80m in the summer. Probably a top ten centre forward in world football.
Yea sure if you want to ignore that they are playing in different competitions and the one game sample size.
My maths is shit, it leaves you with 14 actually
Point is he's not doing anything remotely close in his all round game to what vik was for us .. as long as he scores goals great , can't control a ball and can't head a ball but also can't take a man on
Gyokeres was a one off at this level, no one is going to be a one man attack.
Yea but the strikers don't show aggression and passion so we must criticise them...
Was the first time he's been manhandled like that since he's joined us?
Not sure but I thought a little frustration was shown, I'd expect aggression to follow.
He couldn't finish according to @Earlsdon_Skyblue1 though.....
Simms is 12 goals with at least 11 games left of the season. It’s not out of the question that he or Wright surpasses Gyokeres’ first goal haul of 17.
What are you talking about? Both players have improved as the season has gone on, but started out pretty poorly. Simms for one has only really started performing in the last month or two and looks a different player to the one we saw before Christmas. I don't see how anyone can really argue with that from a serious perspective. If you are talking about Vik then I think it is pretty well regarded that he is one of the best players we've had in the modern day. Saying he missed a few easy chances doesn't change that, and I was one of his biggest advocates after his loan spell here when he was written off by Swansea and a lot of our fans. It was pretty clear his grit and determination stood out.
Gyokeres performed as expected , slightly higher tbh
Wait, it's easier to score goals against shit teams than good teams?!
So what your saying is, Gyokeres has 13 goals against good teams and Simms has none.
Just encouraging no?
Thats a very good point, I think he needs a slight bit more, I’ve been one of those thats been backing him. Everton deemed him good enough last year to lead their line every now and then so its in him. There’s a little bit that can be tidied up and I think bang ready, Haji I think just needs to use his body a bit better he’s 6ft4 and not exactly skinny if he learns to do that he’s 100% ready he’s capable, they both are
Neither of these two players are premier league material unless they undergo a monumental improvement. By the same token lots of other championship strikers are premier league material as well.
