In the premier you not only need ability you need to chase lost causes and don’t give up and I’m not sure Wright is willing to do that , if you put wright and Simms together we would have a half decent player.
I’m glad we never had to get out of second gear as I think Southampton will be a tougher game but we have an excellent bench now that can change a game
Best ref we’ve had all season , maybe he could of just spoken to Mason and their player early first half but he got most things right as both their penalty shouts were dives Tom Daly would be proud of .
It’s no surprise Simms is off form and looking disinterested as when he was in form and scoring goals Lampard dropped him for that useless lazy sod wright , great man management, how not to keep a striker happy.
Yes but Simms was scoring goals while wright was out but despite scoring he was dropped for wright in what was a bizarre decision and we haven’t recovered since and a doubt it did anything for Simms confidence either.
Simms had a run and was scoring goals while wright was out and when wright was fit Lampard dropped Simms who was scoring goals for wright who has struggled ever since , not a good move by Frank and we are still paying for it.
