2022/23 Neal Maupay

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Need to give Simms a go. He could become a handful

 

[ToffeeTim]

I thought we were better with him starting, and I think Simms did a pretty good job as a sub. I think that's probably the best approach in the short term.

 

[Gilbert..]

Watching him lead the line for Everton today should have all involved in recruitment hiding through shame.
Not a dig at him. He just isnt that type of player.

We don’t have a good forward. It’s as simple as that.

Whenever Simms plays we will have people wanting Maupay in.

Because quite simply neither are anywhere near good enough to be playing as a lone striker for a Premier league team.

 

[blulouie]

Think he done exactly what Dyche wanted of him today.

It was also right to sub him and put Simms on at that time , it worked very well.

….I think it’s a matter of who’s least worst & in the system we play I have absolutely no doubt Simms offers more than Maupay.

 

[Azzurri]

Did well to get a win with 10 men.

I think he probably is crap but it's very unfair judging him in this role. It's going to be a hell of a slog against better teams. Starting with Villa next weekend.

 

[KindofBlue]

doesn't really work in our system. he is not very good but the system makes him look worse. silly buy.

 

[jonesl2]

Don't really understand the stick after his performance today, he was closing down well and had some nice little touches and flick on's which worked well with the midfielders running off the back off him.
Isn't half some well over the top fans on here saying he is abysmal etc.

 

[Rook]

Frodo can bang his head on Maupay's talent ceiling but IMO wasn't he was alright today.

Yeah, agree. Limited player who played at his best today.

 

[RFUS]

Best performance for us. Ball actually stuck to him and he put in a good shift.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

Keep him in the side for Villa.

Simms will be eaten alive by that big galoot Mings.

 

[edge]

He put a shift in today doesn’t deserve any stick at all.
