Because he hasn’t played 90 mins of football yet because he’s been a sub.
Cheers Shmmeee but that makes absolutely no sense to me either
Shrugged off the defender tooAll round game was simply fantastic tonight.
The second assist was as good hold up play you will see in this league.
Loved him putting the keeper on his arse in the 89th minute to stop a possible counter.All round game was simply fantastic tonight.

Was shouting at the TV willing him to score! Would of capped off a good nightLike everybody else really he looks fitter, faster and stronger than ever before. Shame he didn't get a goal tonight because he led the line very well I thought.
Can't fault his effort. And great assist for the second goal, he managed to hold the ball up well and was a handful all night.All round game was simply fantastic tonight.

I mean, whoever is the Wright replacement is going to be a step down. As long as they apply themselves correctly, as Simms did, then I think that’s the point. Also, the close control thing… held the ball up really well all night. Wright literally had a ball bounce off his foot 10 yards on Saturday!Can't fault his effort.

However, he's still a step down from Wright. And his close control isnt good enough.
Decent option from the bench.

Simms had a fantastic opportunity to score last night when Sakamoto put one on a plate for him. I think it went out for a throw in.I mean, whoever is the Wright replacement is going to be a step down. As long as they apply themselves correctly, as Simms did, then I think that’s the point.

Your determination to thump yourself in the face over Ellis Simms, even after he’s had a good game, is becoming quite sad.Simms had a fantastic opportunity to score last night when Sakamoto put one on a plate for him. I think it went out for a throw in.
These are the chances he should be putting away. Wright did similar late on against Oxford, but if a chance falls for anyone. You would sooner it be Wright or BTA than Simms.
oh please do shut the fuck up. He played well last night and you still moan.Simms had a fantastic opportunity to score last night when Sakamoto put one on a plate for him. I think it went out for a throw in.

Simms, BTA and Haji were all out/playing with injuries at points last season.The way he won a corner first half he simply wasn’t doing before. Used his pace and strength to outmuscle the defender and knock the ball off him.
That’s him doing what people have wanted all along…using his attributes
His header for the first goal was going wide. Great work by him though, he caused their centre backs so many problems all night with his aggression. So glad to see him adding that to his game, at last.Simms, BTA and Haji were all out/playing with injuries at points last season.
Simms’ best goal last season was v Swansea where he bullied a defender, and finishes the move.
He should’ve scored last night and was denied by; BTA who nicked his goal, a fantastic save from their keeper and a miss in the second half. His work for BTA’s 2nd (and the winner) was fantastic.
A genuine MOTM contender imo.

I was right behind the goal, and my first thought was that it was going in. However, having watched the replay, it was probably going wide and in fact, looks like it could’ve been a deliberate nod across goal because BTA and EMC were at the back post waiting to poke it in.His header for the first goal was going wide.

I’m just listening to last nights post-match and BTA confirmed he was playing through injuries throughout last season.He's another player that looks very improved under Lampard. Did an excellent job yesterday. Wright is still a lot better and a bigger goal threat, so there's no question that he needs to play. Still great to have Simms as an option though, and he looks a lot more up for it.
442?I’m just listening to last nights post-match and BTA confirmed he was playing through injuries throughout last season.
Significantly, it corroborates @Jimmy87 intel which confirmed all 3 of our strikers were dealing with significant knocks at the tail end of last season.
Last season was the statistical outlier for Simms and BTA so I’m not surprised that they’re doing much better. I didn’t expect to BTA to ‘pop off’ to the extent he has to be honest. This season may also be an outlier for BTA for all the right reasons.
BTA is playing so well, there’s a serious consideration as to how we reintegrate Rudoni in the team. He’s obviously a starter but do we continue with 4-4-2 or does BTA revert to one of the wings?
BTA and Haji upfront…442?
