I certainly wouldn’t start Simms tonight. He looked rusty last week when he started. He needs to be brought in gradually imo. Give him the second half tonight
I dont think his hearts in it. I wrote a thread about him last July when most of our players were posting training videos on Instagram, he was posing on a Yacht in Greece with his mates. My thread didnt go down too well on here at the time and some posters said i needed to lay off him, but he gives me the impression he thinks more about looking cool on Social media than he does about being a footballer.
Yeah I think I remember the thread, never came across as a grafter to me, the little game time he got probably didn’t help him but I just don’t see any way he could possibly get in ahead of any of our wide players currently and I don’t see him as a 9 either despite how much speakman claims he can do a job there
Hes never really done anything of note for me to show me he can make it at a level higher than League 1.
I think we had to as he played the required number of his loan spell. Not exactly a contract expert mind!!
He was decent in L1 - scored some good goals, but agree with @Teessidemackem - doesn't look like his heart is in it.
