Simms is quite a funny example of that actually because it strikes me that they’ve tried to do a lot of work with him playing as a focal point of the attack and involving him early. You see it when he will do a bounce pass or cushioned header first time. Shame for him that he doesn’t have the...

Shocking tackle. Think a red is harsh, mind.
