Simms has seemingly all the attributes to be a top striker. Tall with an imposing physique, and whilst not having electric pace is no slouch. And yet his body language is terrible and certainly does him no favours. If he was to score a worldly, you feel rather than celebrate he would go around apologizing to the opposition.
As many have commented his first touch is woeful, and the ball travels faster than his shots. He is easily knocked off the ball, and seems to easily get bullied by far smaller players. He often seems to struggle to make a clean contact with the ball, and regularly seems to scuff his shots. His confidence seems shot to pieces, and near the end of last season he never really even looked like scoring. He truly is an enigma, like many i had high hopes when we signed him, but i think time is fast running out for him, many have already given up on him.
