2021/22 Ellis Simms

[Nymzee]

In your opinion.

I got DCL right the moment he signed for us. I’ll be right with Simms too.

 

[Mr Happy]

If he is not in the squad next season, he should be sold.His stock is high and there is no sense in any further loans.

Stay at Hearts. They're in Europe. Aim to bag more up there and offer as a viable prospect as a result. For now, for me at least he's way off Prem backup standards.

As did I. Simms isn't mobile enough or fast enough for Prem.

He turned 21 in January.
In season 20/21 he scored 8 in 21 for Blackpool.
In season 21/22 he scored 5 in 17 for Hearts.

A decent back up option to DCL in my opinion.

Not just saying this cos I’ve got a season ticket at hearts but this would be a good option for him. He’ll play every week, get games in the europa league.

Hearts will try to play more attacking football next season, prioritise creative attacking players (were a bit one dimensional this season). He’ll get more chances and could score more goals per game and following season be good enough for our squad (am doubtful) or be a player we could sell for a decent sum.

Either way, definitely not ready this season, even off the bench.

 

[Wrighty]

seen a lot of people saying we need cover for DCL surely is time to give this lad a chance, looks like his got everything to be able to be a decent forward, why spend money when we could have a ready made player to cover for DCL already.

 

[roy vernon]

We really shouldn't be spending any of whatever small budget we have for transfers on back up for DCL, we are too desperate in other areas. The thought of having to see the Venezuelan Donkey trotting on fills me with nausea. I'd keep Simms until January as back up and have a look at him. No matter how limited he is, I don't believe he can be as bad as Rondon.

 

[KaiserEFC]

The £1.5m we sell him for on deadline day will be funding our big signing!

 

[Eggsyblueskin]

Stay at Hearts. They're in Europe. Aim to bag more up there and offer as a viable prospect as a result. For now, for me at least he's way off Prem backup standards.

As it stands it’s him or Rondon.
I really don’t want to see Rondon anywhere near the first team again.

 

[evertony]

200 premier league appearance Anichebe?

And we wonder why Evertonians are depressed. Big Vic was total garbage and still managed 200 appearances.

 

[the golden visionary]

As did I. Simms isn't mobile enough or fast enough for Prem.

Neither was Harry kane when he failed to pull up trees at Leicester and Millwall

 

[DRINGOSTAR]

Sometimes you just have to give them a chance ! Gordon was very average for his first few games and couldn’t get a game for Preston now Newcastle want him for 35 million ! Josh bowler could be coming back to the prem after we let him go too !

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Apparently going to Sunderland on loan

 

[tadpole]

This news gives me confidence - I don't think this would be happening unless we were committed to signing another striker

Bit of a stretch, I'm pretty sure we'll sign a forward too but going by pre-season lampard didn't fancy simms one bit
