Did a couple of great lay offs during the game. One put EMC through first half and then a quality touch to Esse when he hit the post. On a great goal scoring run as well

Best 30 mins from wright for a long time though. Was immense with his physicality, pressing etc. They just couldn’t handle him

Scoring is fine with me. He's got us some really invaluable points the last month or so

He's got the best goals per minute in league by miles. Needs the right service.

Maybe certain posters need to get off his back. He scores goals.

Said it before. Looks like he’s playing in jeans, but scores goals. Can’t complain. Been putting fighting shifts in lately as well.

Don’t underestimate his goal today. Right place, holds the defender off and prevents him from clearing it, then curls it in with the back of his calf. Superb.

He won pretty much every header

Set rudoni up by holding it up very well and laying it off

Quite simply we are not where we are in the league without his goals this season. Deserves an enormous amount of credit for playing his way back into the team.

Couldn’t poach a fucking egg on here according to some but the lad scores goals at this level it’s as simple as that.

Had a decent game again today, good energy and held the ball up as and when needed. Honestly felt like he showed Wright what he needed to come on and do!

As a side note I thought Ayew for the first 35-40 minutes today was excellent. Held it up/linked the play and he’s a pensioner! Showed Sims how it should be done in truth but as a whole we didn’t get going until the 2nd half in fairness.

Ayew to be fair to him has started to play much better as seasons gone on...world cup on the horizon.

To be fair, it takes a lot of skill to make a perfect poached egg.
I think they should all try making one at Ryton on Monday morning, not sure many of them would do it well.
My moneys on Dasilva after watching his coffee making skills.

Simms 10 goals in 9 starts. Thats a better record than anyone else in this league. Top striker who just needs to played consistently by Lmpard.

Only four strikers in the entire division have won a higher percentage of their aerial duels.

Not saying he didn't do anything if note. Just overall game he seems like a passenger at times.

Just like wright for invovled I want the exact same from Simms every game too

I just want Simms to keep scoring as he has.

Its amazing the lengths people go to to criticise a goalscoring striker.

I'll assume your not talking about me cos I stand up for Simms many times

Everyone waxing lyrical about wrights cameo yesterday. Would be absurd to say we don't want the same from Simms

It benefits Ccfc if they both impact play as well as scoring goals.

He did very well yesterday. Strange for you to pick up on his involvement when he linked up play for a good Rudoni chance and Esse hitting the post.

You think he did very well whereas I don't think he had a particularly good game. It's just a difference of opinion

No need to paint it up as going to lengths to put down a player as if I have an agenda against him
