We've literally seen Simms play for us in the PL and not shown anything outside of one goal vs Chelsea?

This Ellis Simms love-in is baffling. He's only good in the confines of the box, of which we don't play in, he is not PL quality unless you're setting up him in the 18-yard box.

...and we’ve never sold more than 6 players (last season) with the average being 2-3 sales per season. Last season being the most because it included the likes of Simms and Cannon who let’s face it weren’t even first team players to sell. Suddenly we’re going to sell 7 wank players are we? @Zatara

Didn’t we grow the likes of Gordon and Cannon and Simms to sell on the same way they’re doing?

Ah maybe just Simms then, he referenced selling youngsters he didn't necessarily want to.

Beto's fee doesn't land till next season. We had to sell Cannon and Simms this season. Same with Richarlison. Dyche skirted round it in a presser recently.

We had to sell Cannon and Simms.

Cannon's all round game is miles better than Simms though. I'm sad we sold him but his sale is financially very good since he was an academy lad.

And so is selling Simms, keeping Cannon and not signing Chermiti.

Considering we're trying to be frugal just keep Cannon and don't sign Chermiti...

You're enjoying being 16th with a negative GD after 8 games and a very forgiving fixture list?

Numbers it is perfect, not almost. You want two sets of 11 don't you.

Forward line I’m okay with (which made all the possible Gnonto/forward hunting today weird) but 2 out of 4 CB’s suck, 3 out of 6 midfielders suck and still dead weak in full-backs.

I'm not talking finances I'm just talking the players.

So if I said this Summer we could have swapped Simms for Balogun you'd have turned it down?

That the same younger Balogun that's just slotted more than 20 goals in Ligue 1 and plays and scores for his national side? It's also €40m inc. addons so probably under £30m flat.

Think we'd have been keeping the likes of Simms and Cannon around. Leeds (not sure about the other two) had lots of relegation clauses in their contracts so it depends if we do with ours.

???? No one thought Gnonto would make an impact when he signed for Leeds from Zurich as none of us knew who he was.

Well one has played in the PL and for the Italian national side whereas the other lad has barely done anything. Why would we have the same expectations placed on them?

Who's buying the bold?
