As I remember Godden was the sole striker in our L1 Title winning season, and scored goals in that role when we came up from the Championship. I would argue he is better in that role too. However, yes Vik was better as the lone frontman.
Would you really spend that much on an intended impact sub?
He scored 6 in 23 in our first season up as a lone striker, 2 of which were penalties.
Yes, but he wasn't the issue. We were leaking tons of goals, and it took the change to a more direct style to get us to safety (but Godden was injured by then).. 6 in 23, works out about 12/13 goals in the season and for a team fighting relegation that's not bad.
The last 3 seasons we have been working with a basement budget and got every bit of value out of it. At the moment it looks like we have done what Stoke tend to do but without a billionaire underwriter to fund another go at it next summer.
Looking on Wikipedia, he doesn't seem to come with any pedigree whatsoever so the fee seems very strange.
Makes me think someone sneakily added an extra zero onto the contract before it was signed.
Godden is too scorer in the division. How has that happened?
More like £7,700k
All right, 5 million.
Probably the most worrying comment.
Maybe we should have fucking signed one then
In our first season in this division Matty James essentially led by example and held a team meeting after a battering at QPR to sort things out. It surprises me if even McF is staying quiet but maybe he's too aware of his own poor recent form.
Can’t say that
Yet he didn’t start our most creative one ffs
Wish he didn't start Wright!!!!
Why pick out that goal in particular? Almost seems like he wanted to have a reason to mention Saka and give a reason as to why he won't play him.
So he at least sees what we see, now he needs to fix it.
That’s what I thought re saka, but what about their first goal terrible marking, we were lucky on a couple of occasions as the back three were terrible
That wasn't great, but he wasn't the only one involved in that goal.
