Ellis Simms

[andy m]

That's a really good deal.
Genuinely think we should've gone for that.

He's no better than Jebbison

Jebbison walks on a free next Summer.

Jebbison walks on a free next Summer.

Not sure. He joined our Academy in 2018, not sure if we can hold his registration until he is 24?

True actually. We might get some sort of nominal fee.

No way are Cov telling players they don't want them in the Prem, before they're even promoted

Simms has only started once in the last 8. Coventry only won one of his last four starts. He hasn't scored a goal since mid January. He's struggling to score or assist from the bench.

You would expect Coventry to make one or two striker additions if they do go up.

Lampard may not be overwhelmed by him, which Simms may have sensed, and his agent may well be looking around for possible clubs, or managers, who rates him higher.

Wilder may think he's the next Didzy?

He’s definitely not good enough for EPL, so it would make sense them letting him go.

He’s really not very good though so it feels like a gamble we don’t need to take. He went for a big fee when Cov signed him.

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Seems a bit inconsistent but he's easily capable of 20 goals at this level and shouldn't cost a fortune

 

[Nelson1889]

Very hot and cold (usually cold). Wouldn't say no if it was a loan or relatively cheap as there is probably a player there if you can get him going.

Seems like a typical wilder 'project' type of player, would either be amazing or disappointing

He's one I think there's a very good chance ends up here.

But only if one or both of Cannon and Campbell can be moved

Guarantees goals at 1 in 3 ratio. We aren't doing nothing next season with strikers as passengers like this season.

Only Bamford has some credit for me.

 

[Sithblade]

Hadn't seen that Winker Bassette in a Coventry squad for a long time, they've loaned him out this season and he's currently with the European club giants Kaiserslautern.

Unless he’s replacing Cannon or Campbell’s then there’s a young lad playing for Lincoln called Ryan Oné we should be looking at!

What’s his game like Bergen Blade? Does he play like Didzy?

 

[Badger Blade]

At the moment we've got Bamford whose fitness record precedes him, Campbell who turns up when he feels like it, Cannon who won't progress any higher than he is now, Ings whose legs have utterly departed him and One who's out on loan but is doing pretty well.

Short of a minor miracle, we'll be a Championship club next season and I think we could do a lot worse than Simms. He's only 25 and has a decent enough record at this level. He wouldn't start every week but I certainly wouldn't groan when I see the teamsheet in the same way as when Cannon is named, knowing we're basically playing with 10 men.

Definitely. Please don't let One be the next Osula
The one that got away.

 

[Pintor75]

Would be a decent back up to Bamford & Campbell at this level if Ings and Cannon can be moved on and save on their wages, but wouldn't pay more than £4m for him as a back up, he's another Mcburnie type, so I'd keep One ,save the fee and put it towards a keeper and a finisher
