2021/22 Salomón Rondón

[nsno-chris]

he does have a level of fitness, that's why he's just done three games in a week. He's just not match fit. That's gonna take a few more weeks. I mean, this isn't rocket science. This is why we have a preseason.

Seems like it is for you mate

Brands must have signed off on this,if he didn't deserve the boot before...

 

[Joey66]

Ellis Simms should start instead end of -

 

[Kev50]

Not at all.

If you read my post properly, there’s nowhere I say that he should’ve been at the stage, where he’s fully match fit.

What I do question is the fact is that his level of fitness, very obviously isn’t even at the basic starting point for being on the pitch.

Know one expected him to be fully match ready. But at the same time no one expected him to be waddling around like a 40 a day park footy player.

Like I’ve said before, other, fitter, washed up cart horses where available.

well, let's see if he still looks like a washed up carthorse in five weeks time.

I fully expect his body to have fallen to pieces by then.

what was the rational in extending Broadhead another year only to let him leave on loan to Sunderland? Shouldn't we have kept him for situations where our strikers are simply not fit?

Mate, I wouldn't bother - few of them have decided they don't like him and that's the end of it

I don't think it's necessarily people not liking him, i think its more people see him being picked when totally unfit and Benitez using actual games to get a bloke fit rather than just running the arse out of him in training and giving some starts to players like Simms who would definitely give us more mobility in games we want to win. I really hope we do see a better player when he's fit but i doubt it (id love him to prove me wrong though).

Crazy mate

Can't believe they aren't willing to get behind a chubby past it unfit mercenary striker who's had 3 absolutely appalling games

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

It would be nice if we could actually see him play whilst fit

You know Simms was out for 4 months and has been back in training about 2 weeks? He's probably less fit than Rondon (hard as that is to believe)

And on the mobility front, Benitez has said Simms will get minutes "if he can improve his movement"

Find it mad that people think Benitez wouldn't play him if he was genuinely a better option at the minute

If he's not a better option than rondon has been in his three games then should be playing for Prescot cables or something.

Been playing with 10 men with that crab upfront

You disagree mate?

Pray tell what has impressed you in his Everton career to date.
