We will make it back and some so is a worthwhile investment.. it probably won’t work but we can try Sounds good but clubs like us will never pay that amount, far too risky in my opinion.

He’s contracted til 2024 having just re-signed before coming to us & is very, very highly rated by them. If they stay up we might get another loan, otherwise enjoy him for the next few weeks because we aint going to be able to afford him I was talking hypothetical numbers. He was rated by Unsworth and Benitez. The fans would like to see more of Simms but it’s not their decision, it’s Fat Frankie’s. Asking to buy with a buyback for a set figure could work for both parties if the figures are sensible. IMO he’s not premiership ready and may be someone like Ivan Toney who blossoms a bit later in life in Premiership. A lot will depend on whether Everton stay up.

FarmerTweedy Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 2 hours ago, PhoenixHearts said: He'd be more than worth breaking our record transfer fee on this form. Even when he's not scoring he's generally causing problems for defenders and knows how to hold the ball up. Feel like he's really starting to get to grips with our game. A transfer fee wouldn't even be the issue though. As others have stated already, the stumbling block would be his wages. I don't know if the club have changed the way we do things now with wage/bonus splits. Surely if he took a wage cut but had several incentives written into his contract it could be worked out? Edit: Ps. if wages are such an issue when signing players from clubs like Everton, how come we snagged Beni? What's the difference there? Simms closer to the senior team thus wages reflect that? I think you hit the answer (or part of it) yourself there! Beni is more than 2 years older than Ellis, I think he was completely out the picture at Everton and knew it. He'd hardly played a game for anyone in the previous three years, and he and his agent knew hardly any clubs were looking at him as he mentions in this piece https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/58900311 . I think he knew he had very little in the way of options and that what we were offering him in terms of the opportunity to kickstart his career again was far more valuable than holding out for the possibility of a better offer maybe (or maybe not) coming along. Ellis Simms, on the other hand, is that bit younger and with things going very well for him just now, will feel that his career is very much on the up and up just now, and will probably also feel he's still got a real chance of making it with Everton. And even if he doesn't quite make it with Everton, he'll probably think he might get an opportunity at a smaller EPL club (a Burnley, a Brighton or a Brentford) or a bigger English Championship club, and will probably have corresponding wage expectations. I think he'll probably be happy to come back on loan again next season, especially with group stage European football guaranteed, but even if Everton were to tell him in the summer that they don't see a future for him with them, I think he'll see his longer term future at a higher, or at least more lucrative, level than ours.

I think if they do go down they will believe they have what it takes to get back up even if they let the big players go. But I think they’ll want to loan players out to have them back once back in the top league. For instance, they’ll likely be pressured into selling someone like Richarlison, but someone like Dacoure could be loaned to a team in Ligue 1 for a season to come back to the squad once promoted. Fulham tend to similar with high earners who have no interest in playing in the English Championship but also don’t want to lose out on their wage (as even with the contract clause relegation drop will still be high).

Sadly, the sensible move for him, if he's away out on loan again next year would be to show he's good enough for the English Championship so when his contract runs out at Everton he will get prime Championship wages , a bit like Jimmy Dunne. What it does though, for us, is show we are a fantastic club if you want to send a player with massive potential to on loan because of Europe, because of the way we play and because we are the best of the rest in Scottish football.

bobby bombscare Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 To me, at this point in his career, Simms is a player you would see playing for the OF looking to get a move to an English prem club for 1st team football, that is the kind of quality he is. If we are honest about wanting to challenge the OF, then this is exactly the type of player we should be looking at! We should be doing what the OF do and using European football as a carrot on the stick to increase peoples awareness of them knowing that a few good games in Europe could get them a move to a big club. (Or in his case, a move into the first team at Everton if we can only get another loan) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there's a single person who thinks there's any chance Everton will be relying on Simms next season, whether they stay up or go down, because relying on him suggests he'll be their main, first choice striker, and there's absolutely no chance of that. It's entirely possible though that they'll decide he's worth having around their squad next season, even if he's only 3rd or 4th choice. Another point to note, he'll still be eligible (by 5 days!) as an under 21 player under the EPL squad rules next season, so he wouldn't count towards their 25 man squad limit.

I P Knightley Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 15 hours ago, schillaci said: Ok, reverse the situation. Imagine we have a player out on loan in the (Scottish) Championship really making an impression. Two responses: get him back now, or he's found his level, let him go to whoever. How many loan players have ever come back, and been a hit? Good post. I have no data to hand so this is just gut feeling but how many players at any level have been loaned out (for whatever reason) and then come back to set the heather alight for their parent club? My guess is that it's very few and that a 'successful' loan is one that leads to a transfer from the parent club to a lower club, whether that's the loanee club (i.e. Hearts) or another that sits below the level of the parent club. In short, if we don't take Simms (either with a loan extension or a permanent deal), I think it likely that Everton would be looking to ship him to a championship club. 15 hours ago, PaddysBar said: IF we can get anywhere near championship level wages he’d be nuts to choose a Cardiff etc over us. A pretty poor league, 46 games of drudgery compared to Scottish cup finals and Europe. Europe's the real fly in the ointment. If we had Simms up until Christmas, it could only do good things for his market value. But, ultimately, if he's let go by Everton, he (or his agent/family) should be weighing up the realistic prospects for his career earnings. Hearts can't afford to pay championship wages. If we were to do so for Simms, there would be half a dozen other players knocking on the door to ask for similar. Like it or not, these guys are out to coin in as much as they can over a period of about 14 years. It's a job and, much like many jobs, unless you're truly exceptional, you have to put up with drudgery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biffa12 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Echo ‘back of the net’s’ comments Hearts cannot afford to buy the finished product - not on fees or or wage demands. Many posters have a belief that one miss / one poor pass or even game is sufficient to write a player off. We have to tolerate the odd wayward shot, pass etc it is not as if we are all 100% correct in every decision we make personally!!! If we look at the ugly sisters and what they have spent on rank rotten footballers - Barkas millions for a replacement for Craig Gordon who they let go for free….need I say more, probably not we are shopping often in the good stores discount basket in terms of our search for quality at reasonable prices we get gems like Ellis and fatally flaws too…. Breaking the bank to sign a headline grabbing finished article is somewhere we should not go when this season has proven if the right back room is there doing the research and making the phone calls we can make significant progress at reasonable costs, building a team, a collective buy in to the belief and vision - all we need now is the social media terrorists calm down, pause for breath and let the HMFC collective do their job.

busbyfth Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Unfortunately for us, Everton will be looking at how he is doing and see the videos of the goals he has scored - the last couple have been quality strikes that make him look like a pretty top player. Damned if we do and damned if we dont, as each time he scores goals like he's been doing then his parent club bangs his worth up both in financial terms and reasoning for keeping/playing - especially in a lower division ...............(Ideally in the final which is a showcase game that will be watched by Everton contacts - Hearts win 1-0 and Simms has a one off crap game while missing a couple of sitters.....so his worth to Everton bottoms out) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I think this is highly unlikely, it is not beyond the realms of. The Uglies sign players from other clubs even if it does nothing else but weaken the selling club. Why did Everton buy NP if he was not 1st team ready? Possibly to develop him but also they have acquired a good young prospect at a knock down price and grabbed him before anyone else does. His immediate development could happen in Liverpool (reserves?) or it could take place nearer his family home with the added prospect of further experience in Europe. That would be a matter for discussion between club and player and more so if he's maybe not settling into Scouse life. As I said it may be unlikely but not something to be ruled out.
