Ellis Simms - The Enigma
Deep dive into the numbers behind the 24 yr old, who had such a dissapointing 24/25 season.
A dig into the numbers behind Ellis Simms.
Would you move him on?
Abso- fucking- lutelyWould you move him on?

In a heart beat. The guy can't trap or control a football ffs, and can't even head a ball!!!
On top of that he doesn't work hard enough, or use his physicality enough.
Shit hair do too
Of course hes improved, he couldn't really of been any worse.He can't head a ball yet managed to score 4 headers last season. This is in a thread where the analysis even says that heading accuracy is an area of the game he has improved.
You mean like Bassette? I really think he has all those attributes. All he needs now is to add a bit of skill and he'll be a top striker. I just hope its for us and not against us.We can't continue with 2 hit or miss lethargic forwards.
It would make a huge difference to get a centre forward with aggression who actually likes getting in the box, making a nuisance of himself, rattling defenders, who is desperate to score goals.
Simms needs to go.
Bassette doesn't actually get in the box much or attack the goal. So not for me.You mean like Bassette? I really think he has all those attributes. All he needs now is to add a bit of skill and he'll be a top striker. I just hope its for us and not against us.

Or we could just tell him to push 10 yards further forward?Bassette doesn't actually get in the box much or attack the goal. So not for me.
Wasn’t it Lampard who moved him on at Everton?I'm still a fan of Simms, and in the keep category but I can see how he frustrates.
Maybe him not featuring in the two play off semis is a hint that Lampard doesn't seem him in his future plans either
Perhaps if he had played him, we would be in the premiership.Of course hes improved, he couldn't really of been any worse.
There's more to heading than just scoring, I'd love to see him win a header with his back to goal, get a flick on, or even bring the ball down on his chest and lay it off (to one of our own players)
He's one of our top earners, but one of our poorest players.
I think the fact that Lampard left him out of both play off games would indicate that his time here is up. But as I've said before, we could have difficulty off loading him, I doubt anyone else would pay him what we are paying him.

Ffs the lads only 20 !!!I think he needs more than just a bit.
Norm has a deranged work rate, and I don’t 100% mean that as a compliment.
Which scouts?He's already got an international call up, and attracted interest from a number of talent scouts.
The fact that he was fast tracked to the full Belgian international squad when he haz only just turned 20 instead of playing for their U21 is a sign of how highly he's rated.Which scouts?
The two minutes of stoppage time that Norm played for Belgium (total touches: 0) is really working overtime at the moment.
He hasn’t made a Belgium squad since November - the call up is looking more and more like a work experience placement than a sign he’s one of Belgium’s best strikers.The fact that he was fast tracked to the full Belgian international squad when he haz only just turned 20 instead of playing for their U21 is a sign of how highly he's rated.
The club have stated scouts have been watching him. If your that desperate to know which ones I suggest you e-mail the club.He hasn’t made a Belgium squad since November - the call up is looking more and more like a work experience placement than a sign he’s one of Belgium’s best strikers.
Which scouts came to watch him?

Go search yourself you lazy f^#kLink?
I think it was Everton's desperate need for cash that saw him moved on more than anything else - along with Cannon. And Dyche was in charge at the time of our signing him.Wasn’t it Lampard who moved him on at Everton?
I did and it didn’t show anything. Maybe you just made it up?Go search yourself you lazy f^#k
I did and it didn’t show anything. Maybe you just made it up?
