Ellis Simms played loads of minutes last season, started a lot of games and was certainly bought in as a starter originally? Why we pretending he just comes off the bench for a few cameos now?
All said and done (and as said above this isn't the thread for it) if we go into the season with him here I will of course support him and hope against my better judgement that he has it inside of him to improve. But there's a reason most of the fan base now, including many that had his back for...
There's always going to be a sliding scale but he's still a very good player. Wouldn't even put Wright and MvE with Rudoni, think Rudoni is a fair bit better than both.
We've already replaced MvE tbf. I don't see KKH as much of a downgrade, if at all.
I'm choosing to take the opinion we're after a better standard of player so it's harder to get done.
I guess we'll find out soon, I would like to see at least 1 this week tbf.
Let's be honest here, Robins and also tbf the majority of this forum though the Wright, Simms, Sakamoto front 3 would be our golden ticket last season. The biggest reason that wasn't the case was the useless unit in the middle.
I think they should be judged on quality rather than quantity. Considering the summer you're on about, the marquee incoming was Kasey Palmer, I think we're OK.
Still time mate, reckon we see another 3 at least.
We probably need to chill, we'll see movement in the next couple of weeks. As said before it's harder to secure the deals for players that other clubs actually want.
Put the pitchforks on hold until the window is actually done.
Agree you can't sum up his technical ability with some arbitrary number on a piece of paper. I enjoy stats don't get me wrong and they have worth but people need to start watching with their eyes again, which was funnily enough how he was spotted in the first place.
We do need competition for...
