Shukes Posted January 9, 2022 Report Share Posted January 9, 2022 Needs a move. Dobbin has overtaken him as next in line, so unfortunately for Simms.. a move is likely the best option. Would like to see him go somewhere and get a good run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very different type of player for mine, can't see Dobbin ever leading the line one out. Rondon should never be getting minutes ahead of Simms. Agree on the move though, given he's not getting any chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukes Posted January 10, 2022 Report Share Posted January 10, 2022 Ye different types of players, but I think ability is the key here. Dobbin looks like he has a chance of being a premier league player. Simms I think is destined for championship level. Really wanted a big fast centre forward to come through, but the more I see…. The more I realise it’s not going to heppen. Romey 1878 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he has a good loan this season, and maybe next season, and then we get smart and get a decent fee for him. That is something we've been terrible at and we must get better at it.

But I did think his touch seemed there, which is one of the hardest parts of the game to learn. Would be great to see more of him in the second half of the season.

Btay Posted January 10, 2022 Report Share Posted January 10, 2022 I think Simms could offer something for us and I’d be disappointed if we let him go. 15 minutes to go and needing a goal. I can’t imagine many centre halves would want to deal with both Simms and DCL in the box. Wiggytop, Cornish Steve and Matt 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted January 26, 2022 Report Share Posted January 26, 2022 That's a big move for him. Beni is playing there too so I am sure that will help him settle as well. It will be interesting to see how he gets on because he won't get an easy time of it up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FairWooney Posted January 29, 2022 Report Share Posted January 29, 2022 Think a few months of regular competitive game time will rely do him good. Would say the same for Dobbin but we can't afford to let both go out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted February 10, 2022 Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 I very much doubt he'll be a player that we keep around but him doing well out on loan will allow us to make a nice bit of money on him, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly think him and Dobbin could do a job in the Championship , let’s face it we will have no money to spend so giving these lads a chance may be the only option anyway If/when we go down we need to have a complete reset and get rid of the big earners. If it comes to that I hope we stick with Lampard and build a team that plays the kind of football he wants to play We still have some very good kids who should be more than good enough at that level, add in the likes of Welch’s, Branthwaite, Warrington, Onyango, Tyrer, Patterson and if we can keep hold of Anthony Gordon the nucleus of a good young and hungry side is already there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t win if you look upwards people say stop worrying about the teams above us concentrate on the teams below As it happens I think there is more chance of me winning the Euro Millions Lottery ( and I don’t even do it ) than us catching Leeds,Brentford or Newcastle I haven’t said we are down I said if / when we do go down So I don’t think sticking my head in the sand and pretending this isn’t happening is going to help to be honest.
