I was impressed with Walker against Blackpool, him and Gyokeres seemed to have glimpses of an excellent partnership, good work rate and reactions too. Let’s hope all 3 can still sharp for the rest of the season

Last game seemed to work ok with Vic and Walker starting and Godden off the bench. Keep it that for now.
6.
I don't remember him playing in goal at all, nevermind scoring while playing in goal.

the fact you and PVA are forming an alliance is genuinely brilliant
A typically topical reference.
I don't know who the fuck that is, but I'll happily have a 1 in 2.5 scorer in the team which is what Godden is this season despite apparently being rubbish.

Grendel has to have a someone to slag off, remember Jackett for Robins, you should all know that, don’t bite

I do see why you changed your identity (again) as you wanted to keep biamou ahead of Gyokeres
You’ve made a lot of promises Rupert about our new owner and big investment - let’s see

1 in 5 ?
Walker has 1 in 14 using your logic , fact is matty godden has just over a 1 in 3 this season .. and a goal every 2.5 games in the championship for us .
Not sure what you're alluding to here
Our fans talk absolute bollocks about godden on here .. FACT

Stewart scored 74 goals in around 360 games for West Ham

But godden isn't a 1 in 5 striker here , just seems a random thing to say
Walker is , if we are going off appearances, it's 1 in almost 7 , but again that's not really fair on him

Ray Stewart was a full back

Not sure why that's relevant here
He converted over 70 penalties - take goddens penalties away
Evo1883

He's scored 17 non penalty championship goals .. which still has him at a better goalscoring rate than tyler walker in the championship for us ..
Again though , I didn't have you down as somebody who doesn't count penalties , which earn us points .. as genuine goals?
Do you like Harry kane , Lionel Messi or Alan shearer ? Do/did their penalties count
Grendel

Of course they count but it’s irrelevant as a centre forward ability in open play
Not sure why that's relevant here
Because bringing up a full back from 40 years ago is typical of the lengths people will go to to slag Godden off

Right , so as I've stated his open play goal record is still better than walkers .. including minutes per goal ..
Godden has a record of a goal every 257 minutes from open play in the championship ... better than a 1 in 3
His overall record is 24 goals in 69 games or a goal every 182 minutes .
Pretty good for somebody who offers very little
His OVERALL record here of 39 goals in 104 games , has him at a goal every 177 minutes .. better than a goal every 2 games ..shocking

I'd just like to point out how mental the godden argument is
Ben Brereton, a top forward at this level , a player I'd love to see here and I'm sure we all would , a player who is better than godden ability wise ...has an open play goal record at Blackburn of 45 in 168 at blackburn , an open play ratio of a goal every 268 minutes ..
End of discussion , some really should give godden a break

I think you're being over sensitive to a bit of mild criticism over his comparative lack of impact this season. I'm glad he's scored a couple and long may it continue.

Godden in my opinion is a good squad player and does score goals but he needs service otherwise he’s pretty quiet in games whereas vik creates for himself
godden is ok and does score big goals to be fair to him, but he can have games where he’s pretty subdued
I think we play better with one upfront

The very vast majority of strikers need service though, Gyokeres is a total outlier in being able to create for himself, a bit of a freak really.

Yeah he does sometimes look a little bit of a passenger for periods of a game, but when gets service he gets goals, no denying that. And yep Robins loves him as you say.

TBF that does need time most of us believed Sisu were our saviours.

Might be something to do with playing for a contract either here or elsewhere but thought he was superb on Saturday

It’s probably a signing that hasn’t worked - But I do feel the hate he gets is way over the top, his goals first season kept us up in this league and we’ve certainly had worse players
SkyblueDad

Is it hate ? Personally I think he is third in line in our current strike force but if Robins decides to play him that’s fair enough, I hope we have a better option for next season to partner Vik than him and Matt Godden, essential imo.
