Start Simms - for that central role he's the least ineffective. Yes, Wright's a much better player, but is poor in that position.
Bench - BTA: useful to bring on with his energy and running against a tiring defence.
Sell - Wright; presumably we'd get a decent fee and can reinvest across the...
He scored against Man United (great goal though we were 4 down at that point), then against Villa at home and Forest away.
I remember the Grimsby and QPR goals, but no idea about the other two.
Should have been a straight red, even then. Then the ball hitting Cryrille's thigh and given as a pen, and Gynn getting barged out of the wall for the free kick winner. I still feel robbed now.
The terrace that day was frighteningly crammed.
And an own goal against Charlton. Don't forget that.
I think, considering he came for what was big money at the time, in my time supporting the club, he's been our worst ever signing.
Because I think it would be an unnecessary risk to drop one of the best players in his position in the division, who could clearly preform at a higher level.
But that's moot, because I don't think Lampard would drop him if he's still here (and without a deal lined up).
Well, if Lampard thinks he's better, then he'll play him.
I would not be onboard with that decision, certainly not before KKH has kicked a ball in anger for us, but that would be relevant to precisely nothing.
To be fair to Moyes, he did get one of those jobs, but at the worst possible time.
I rate him highly, and think he's been slightly unlucky in the Man Utd job hurting his reputation somewhat.
But I digress.
