We dodged a bulet with Simms

[Durham lad]

Slow, ineffectual and lethargic, no sense of urgency, fight or running into space.

 

[Reptilia]

Be the best forward in our team if we had.

 

[deanoferrino]

Think you’re right. We couldn’t afford him anyway under current model!

Be the best forward in our team if we had.

.. Spot on ..

Be the best forward in our team if we had.

2 in 20 for Coventry says otherwise

 

[The Pallion Stallion]

Be the best forward in our team if we had.

He has more goals than all of them put together

Good thing our current strikers don't match this description

.. Two more goals than our entire strikeforce ..

I liked him when he was here, but if anything it should show that just throwing money at the striker position isn't the way to go. How much did Coventry spend on him and Haji Wright?

 

[Realist]

He is decent at this level, he just need another decent striker along side him. We had either Stewart or Simms holding the ball up while we press forward and work it into the box and it worked. I just wish we went back to 2 strikers, we played out best football when it was that way.

 

[The Good Sir]

Proof if it were ever needed that throwing money around doesn't mean you're getting quality.

Our current strikers didn’t cost £7m between them though. Simms is really poor.

 

[Cheesy Feet]

OP summed him up perfectly..he's absolute shite.

 

[Mowgli]

Be the best forward in our team if we had.

He'd still do fuck all with the tactics mowbray played this season

 

[TheBronzeBummer]

Class for us, had a wonderful trio behind him.

Coventry haven't that talent, no offence they've a quality side.

Rusyn will prove better.

 

[hilslm]

He’d have been much better had Everton left him with us for the rest of last season, recalling him just knocked his confidence and development. Not saying he’d be firing them in all over but I think he’d have had more motivation and drive than he’s showing now.

 

[CARLOS CLASS]

Didn’t rate the lad and couldn’t understand why some wanted us to sign him

 

[T_Bone]

Looked the part………. That was it.

 

[sir rowell cummins]

Some neat finishes for us like but no fight in him and I never wanted him.

 

[Lawrenceslongthrowin]

I’d still swap him for 3 of our strikers and keep mayenda
