….if he wasn’t utilised in the last 18 months, it’s hard to see him having a future with us. Saying that, he must surely have been a better option than Rondon. Those last 30 minutes at Brentford when we desperately needed a goal, balls flying across the area, Rondon unable to get close yet Simms and Dobbin remained on the bench.
Lampard might want to have a look (remember he brought Zouma back for pre-season at Chelsea), but it’s more likely Simms is in the shop window.
He might want a look but he seems to already have his favourites.
….I hope he’s learning that busy players aren’t always effective players. Delighted Kenny and Holgate were missing against United. Very disappointed by some of his Lampard’s team selections, they have certainly contributed to our demise.
Well rumours going round Kenny will be offered a new deal so I think if that happens we know he's maybe not the manager we wanted.
He could well become a backup striker. If our finances are tight and we sell DCL, we will need to buy a replacement, but Simms could fulfill a backup role. After all, he wouldn’t cost us anything.
Dobbin is probably still too raw and needs a loan or two.
It depends how much money we will have to spend. He is a low cost back up option. I’m ok with that. Patterson should challenge Coleman next season for the right back position. Kenny would be cover.
Forgive me for not wanting 3 RB's in the squad next season when 2 are awful.
…I see Dobbin as more polished than Simms, the last thing I would do is send a youngster with no experience of open-age football into the lower leagues under a manager who is more interested in points than developing a talent.
Sounds easy saying ‘send him on loan’ but I doubt he’d get much game time. He’s also very small framed, I’d much prefer him finishing his growth here.
That’s fine, but he won’t get any first team experience here.
Simms is doing well for Hearts and I am certain he will be ahead of Dobbin in the pecking order.
We get through fullbacks like no other team and I never want to see Holgate at right back ever.
He has also offered cover on the left.
Badly.
….I‘m sure Dobbin is more highly rated, if we stay up it’ll be interesting what happened with Simms.
Patterson, Mykolenko and Coleman are ahead of him. He would be cover. If not him then we would have to get someone else who is willing to bench warm. I doubt they would be up to much if they are brought in for that purpose.
I know perfectly well that he isn’t a first choice fullback, but I am also realistic about how we afford a squad with sufficient depth. Our money will have to go into a CB, ha few central mid fielders and probably two forwards to replace DCL and Richarlison.
Patterson, Coleman, Mykolenko, Nkounkou
Why offer someone as bad as Kenny a new deal? Yet another player we can't shift on.
