Simms needs to work much harder but I think there is player in there. Sadly confidence affected him too much and not helped after he was dropped by MR game after scoring away at Watford.
To be slightly fair he is always being manhandled by defenders and could say he creates distraction/space for Rudoni coming in late.
Simms needs to work on movement in box and anticipating where wingers can mix putting the ball as near post option rarely attacked enough . Corners/crosses have lead to us being amongst most headed goals in Europe though so can't all be bad.
As for BTA, I don't know what system or position rwally suits him. He struggles to control ball or pass sometimes but there is a player in there too.
Suspect we will stick with both but worth looking at Kone and European options.
Wasn't it rumored/reported that if Simms plays another competitive game we will owe Everton a hefty wedge? If that is the case it could be the deciding factor in who goes to make room.
