Simms is likely levels above Tosun and Rondon. There's probably lads in the under 18s that would do a better job.

Rondon has contributed 1 shot on target and won us one corner in 7-8 games and probably ran about 2km combined! If Simms can’t contribute more than then why are we giving him a 3 year deal?

Imagine if he has drilled the back four into being a solid defensive unit ?
Imagine if he allows Digne to attack
Imagine if he lets the midfield harry and tackle rather than standing off three yards
Imagine if he goes with young players and not Rondon and Iwobi
Imagine....3 2 1 youre back in the room.

Gordon
If only our club knew we had these future ballon d'or winners being overlooked by every EFC manager they would hit the roof I tells ya!

Mate he could be a dug up Thomas Edison to contribute more than that mess. The position Simms is in now is he doesn’t have to anything other than a very very very average footballer to improve us 10 fold
Are you trying to now claim that Rondon deserves to play on merit?

Mate, Rondon moves like he's had a stroke and contributed nothing in the games he's played.
Tosun I don't need to say a word. You honestly don't think the young ones wouldn't give more effort than those two wage thieves?

Not surprising you don't want our young lads to do well really is it.
Get a load of this nonsense
"Some of them will need more time. If you have top class players, like Rooney at 17 years old he could play. There are not too many. Raul at Madrid could play, but there are not too many.
"Some people say we have to give them an opportunity. Yeah but 'young' players doesn't mean 'good' players. They're young players.
"Some of them will need more time than others."

I could get behind this if Rondon wasn’t Isthmian League standard.

They have to prove it in training and if they aint doing it they dont get selected.
No other club fanbase cries about selecting fringe youth players as much as we do its embarassing.
Gordon is an attacking wide player who is yet to score (or even assist iirc) yet he is raved about like he's Sterling because his name isn't Iwobi.
Dobbin and Simms should be out on loan learning their trade and developing like every other club does with their better academy players yet we demand them playing even if they are nowhere near ready for the PL.
He hasn't become Edison Cavani.
But we've seen Rondon play, he's horrendous, and Tosun is just back from his third serious knee injury in as many years, hasn't played for us since January and the club have tried to sell him since January 2019.

....and Rondon IS ready for the PL?
I would usually agree with all of this
Except when the performances of the senior player have been so dreadful. It's an absolutely appalling message to any young player at the club if Rondon is given the start on Sunday. You either pick a side on merit or you pick on reputation and past performance.

If Rondon is crap and gets dogs abuse he can take it - he's a grown bloke who's experienced and been through that.
If Dobbin is absolutely crap and part of a team that gets roundly boo'ed off the pitch even if the boo's aint aimed at him personally that shatters the young kids confidence.
Thats why these players go out on loan to lower level teams - to learn, develop you dont throw them into a CL final or into a struggling team desperate for points with an already riled up fanbase.
