LolIs he going out clubbing after the game?
Shit that Simms will only ever be the one that tires them out.. could do with him bagging tooKin ell Godden coming on when defenders are tiring is that after the 700th minute
Agree he needs to be a 1 in 3 or 4 forward in that role. But given the new system I am happy we at least have one forward that has the attributes to tire defenders as without that we are currently quite lightweight form a physicality perspective up front.Shit that Simms will only ever be the one that tires them out.. could do with him bagging too
Simms was tired thoughSimms could also be scoring against these tired defences?
Long story short , the balls into feet were the reason godden scored , not tired defenders .. service is a wonderful thing
Simms was tired though
Fresh vs Fresh
Tired vs Tired

Not like the team weren’t trying to play Simms in mind youMost Their players were fucked from about 45 on .. simms wasn't, didn't score
Also worth pointing out they put a fresh defender on at 45
It's service though ultimately why matty godden scored 2 and simms didn't
His runs were too wide every time .. weren't they ? He also hesitated several times to make the correct runs between defenders to put him through ..Not like the team weren’t trying to play Simms in mind you
You can see he's learning on the job so to speak . He has a great coaching team at the club to bring the best out of him , so hopefully he continues to improve and listen . I'm convinced he's going to be a very good number 9 given time , look where Vik was at a similar time in his career .His runs were too wide every time .. weren't they ? He also hesitated several times to make the correct runs between defenders to put him through ..
Half of ellis simms issues are his own .. he can learn sure ,hopefully he does
I think it's safe to say fans won't forever be happy with him just occupying a defender , especially if we don't get results , plenty of time to get it right ( 3 and a half years )
Gyokeres wasn't ready when he first arrived which is why he didn't play in every match like Simms has. We need another striker in to give him a chance to develop without playing every match.You can see he's learning on the job so to speak .

One thing I like about him is he never shirks away or hides , he's always involved and he seems to have a good rapport with the other players
Agree with you but the new signing needs to be a similar sort of player .Gyokeres wasn't ready when he first arrived which is why he didn't play in every match like Simms has. We need another striker in to give him a chance to develop without playing every match.
AbsolutelyShit that Simms will only ever be the one that tires them out.. could do with him bagging too
I have to agree, nothing from tonight would make me want to start him in the next game.Seen enough of him now. Not good enough and no signs that he has the potential to be. Woeful footballer.
How can he be a good target man? Nothing sticks to him. He can’t hold the ball up, if he runs the channel he can’t control it. He can’t finish. There’s literally nothing he offers us at the moment. Really hope he comes good but currently, he offers absolutely nothing.Moved from the match thread, I stand by it:
I think Simms is a good target man? Absolutely needs to sort his confidence out and shoot but I actually thought his hold up play was good. Something none of our other strikers can do. Stick him in the middle with Tats and O'Hare running off him. Quality the way he held off that defender and laid the ball off perfectly for Allen who wasted it.
Not sure I agree with the last bit, but we’d certainly be a better bet.Hes shit
I've said this before but I still havent had anyone state what im saying is incorrect
First touch is shit
Cant run
When he manages to put his feet in front of the other he's like Bambi on ice
Cant shoot
So 1 footed its unbelievable
Never in the right place showing a 'strikers instinct'
Id only still start him because Goddens done
We need a striker or top 6 wont happen
This thread is going to be a shit show.
He’ll 100% come good.
I admire your optimism but we’ve seen nothing to suggest that will be the case.This thread is going to be a shit show.
He’ll 100% come good.

I was 100% of this opinion and was delighted when we signed him... But we're over half the way into the season and the QPR game aside you'd struggle to give him above a 6/10 for any game.This thread is going to be a shit show.

That is demonstrably bullshit! He held up nearly everything that was played to him. He made some decent passes to bring other players in. He harried their defence and caused chaos. But all anyone remembers (rightly) is that he absolutely fucked up that chance at the start of the 2nd half.How can he be a good target man? Nothing sticks to him. He can’t hold the ball up, if he runs the channel he can’t control it. He can’t finish. There’s literally nothing he offers us at the moment.

What’s more frustrating is that if we had an Adam Armstrong type of player, we’d be so good. Simms (and Godden to an extent) not good enough for where we want to get to.
