Defenders look terrified of both Simms and Wright
TOP signing if it comes off.
Top player with a better hit rate than viktor in the championship this season.....
Exciting times.
Both on 16 (for comparison last season Gyokeres and Hamer scored a total of 33)So, am I right in saying Simms is on 15 in all competitions?
Haji is on 16?

They were shite for 2/3 of the season, that's why they got stick, they couldn't trap or control a football, and Simms inpaticular didn't work hard enough. None of that is to do with "gelling" or adjusting to our style.It was clear from the start that him and haji needed time to adjust to the way we play and Robins ethos. As with other players. The problem was some fans wanted a ready made gyokeres replacement. It doesn’t work like that
We looked quite open second half but not sure we concede without a mistakeWhen were on form there’s no escape, push up to compress and we’ll hit MvE and Wrigtt he over the top and Simms through the middle. Back off and Palmer and Sheaf get room to play, drop back and Kitching and Thomas can join in with incisive passing. It’s such a good team.
Wouldn’t shock me to see Wright on the bench, bring O’Hare in and start Palmer on the right perhapsThat’s the big question isn’t it. Simms has had a bit of a rest. Wright hasn’t. Really need 3 points on Monday

Confidence helps massively of course, and they both benefited from starting to score,
But let's not kid ourselves that we haven't seen some very poor performances from both players earlier in the season.
Something changed after the second international break, (maybe some personal one to one training?) and since then they have worked harder and both have improved dramatically, they're both having a purple patch in front of goal at the moment and long may it continue.
Great to see him smiling today . Genuinely think he’s going to be massive for us over the coming seasonsOn my way back from Huddersfield and Simms was magnificent today. The work he's doing tracking back is a polar opposite to earlier on the season. He's a proper handful for any defence. Love the guy
He coukd get this season in all competitions. His mins per goal now isn't out of place in top scorers list. Goal every 189 mins. Upward trajectory.So basically since February he's been fantastic , and the player we all want to see ..lots of us have given him pelters and probably gave up on him too soon , there's no doubt now that ellis simms is coventrys main man now
20 league goals next season maybe ?
Yes, but some people saw that potential, others didn'tThey were shite for 2/3 of the season, that's why they got stick, they couldn't trap or control a football, and Simms inpaticular didn't work hard enough. None of that is to do with "gelling" or adjusting to our style.

Great atmosphere around the club at the minute. Really good group of lads Robins and co. have assembled, and it shows on the pitch.
Simmsational
..... PUSB
First goal looked like Prime Gyokeres. Love to see it.
Since the turn of the year, Simms is the most prolific goalscorer in the top four divisions with 13 goals in 18 games in all competitions.
I would love to get Hardie next season as a Godden replacement. If they get relegated. He's a top top playerI have just had a look back to the start of this and it’s amazing how many of the players we were linked with we got, Whittaker is the one that we didn’t get that stands out.
