His ability as a finisher is quality, create chances for him and he will score goals for you. He is very different to Hirst off the ball, he isn't the sort of striker who will run himself in to the ground pressing defenders like Hirst was, or at least he hasn't been previously. Wasn't one i expected us to be after for that reason, but Mckenna knows best.
As for JRS, get that deal done and we have an absolute gem for a season. I see him very quickly nailing down that rw position for himself, should the deal happen. Superb footballer.

Interesting player Ellis Simms.

How does that affect Burns?
RIP Sir Bobby

When watching Everton escape relegation on the last day I did wonder if Simms might be one we'd try for. Year left on his contract and wages reported as quite low.
Fits the profile. Young and potential to sell on for multiples of what we pay.

Completely different player to Burns though. Think we'd lose a bit defensively.

100%. Think the recruitment strategy is fairly clear. Plyers aged 20-25. Played at top academies and are already good, but have a higher ceiling. Simms certainly fits every part of that criteria.

Indeed, ridiculous figure.
If you're saying we can pick Simms up for considerably less than this (say, 2m?) then that's surely an absolute no-brainer? As others have said, if it's a similar price for both Hirst and Simms, surely you go for the latter? Or maybe both and sell Ladapo!

Whilst I appreciate at a lower level and only basing most of my opinions of simms on limited viewing & highlights reels. I would say that Hirst has more technicality about him and his finishing but is older and hasn't done it in the Championship. I would still like hirt as well though, but maybe they are too similar in profile

Wouldn't surprise me if we signed two central strikers.

None of those players listed at the point we bought them had performed well in the Championship already.
Harry Clarke had had a strong start to a season with Stoke, Leif Davis had been with a promotion squad with Bournemouth and Broadhead was averaging 1 in 4 with Wigan for the opening of 22/23 season all in the Championship so I’m not sure that’s strictly true.

Harry Clarke had been dropped by Stoke at the point he was coming to us, and by many accounts was underwhelming. Leif did not play very much, as you know by the use of squad in your comment and Broadhead had been struggling with injuries again or he wouldn't be with us now.happy to straighten that out.

You said none of the players had done well in the Championship - that simply isn’t true.
