22 is not very young
His play on the whole is so passive. Tame efforts at goal, gets easily shrugged off the ball and rarely makes use of his pace.Most of what you are saying is correct, but I expect it will trigger a few on here.
None of that is to say that he can't come good. He may well turn into a superstar. He is still very young and has a lot of time to develop. At the moment though he looks like a very underwhelming signing that cost a lot of money, and I'm not sure I can take any arguments that he's playing well particularly seriously.
It is the older I get22 is not very young
This thread is going to be a shit show.
He’ll 100% come good.
He will come good. Is just lacking alot of confidence. Still contributes alot (more than Godden).This thread is going to be a shit show.

Thats as dumb as saying he’s shite
Chaos? He was a passenger and offered nothing.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.
Looks so devoid of confidence. He needs a run through the middle without Godden and with O'Hare and Tats to be busy around him. He will come good if we don't break his spirts first
On my opinion we need two strikers to chase the top spotsHow long will MR persist with Simms and Godden?
Simply not good enough.
Desperately need a proper striker.
Huh?

How can you say 100% he will come good? No one yet knows do they? He’s not good at the minute and struggling. He may turn it round but there’s equal possibility he won’t
Agree with thisWe’re at a point with Simms where he’s been written off so therefore those will only see bad.
Today he made a poor decision to pass to Godden first half, should have been stronger against their defender in a one on one and then the obvious miss early in the second half.
However, he also held the ball up, provided a number of lay offs and good link play, evidenced direct running and movement.
Clearly isn’t the finished article and is in desperate need of a goal, but he’s clearly got potential and can lead the line for us given a chance and a needed confidence boost.
I mostly see someone who has some great physical attributes and a strong shot on him but isn’t using any of them anywhere near enough.He'll always be Sky Blue Marmite.
You either like his contributions or you dislike him. Robins is obviously in the 'like' half otherwise he wouldn't play him. And at the end of the day, his is the only opinion that matters.
I know what you are saying, but IMO it's nothing like an equal possibility. In time, it's much more likely that he'll be a big success for us than that he'll be a failure.How can you say 100% he will come good? No one yet knows do they?

The Wright deal was agreed last season, well before signing Simms.I think if we’d got Wright prior to him we wouldn’t have signed him.
There are two points for me. 1) He wears Sky Blue so I’ll get behind him. 2) He’s a poor player. I think if we’d got Wright prior to him we wouldn’t have signed him. But hey, I’ve cheered on Darby, Jenkinson, Woods, Gayle etc so there’s no reason I won’t do the same for Simms.
Neither get into great positions though to be fair.Godden and Simms just haven’t had any real chances to work with the last few games.
Simms looks bereft of confidence, but still contributed more than Godden did tonight. Should have had at least 1 assist (Allen) and a stone wall penalty. He is only relatively young still, so could potentially get better. Think about how raw Leon Best was when we signed him at a not too dissimilar age to Simms and the player he was when we sold him to Newcastle.
Godden has scored just once in his last 19 games against championship opposition, we definitely need to get a replacement in now, that can take the pressure off Simms, Wright and Godden.
