Arriving back on his own apparently. The rest are still in Portugal aren't they?

Don’t think so travelled today?

Came back today apparently.

 

[shmmeee]

Could it just be they landed at Gatwick?

 

[eastwoodsdustman]

Do you reckon he's the one stood up as the planes landed and rushed off before everyone else then

He may have gone on his own there as he lives in Kent

Urgh release him if true

Did your mate read it in the Yorkshire Post? ;-)

His stock has risen sharply if he’s gone from being linked with Derby to Leeds

I can’t see it.

I can’t see it either, but good to see others noticing his goal scoring exploits.

But how can this be so?…some on here vouch that he is useless.

Should Leeds United look to sign Stevenage's Matt Godden?

Leeds United are set to be on the look out for a new striker in the summer. Leeds United looked at the League Two market...

[Covcraig@bury]

Billy Sharpe would be good for Lids

 

[Greggs]

Listen to offers for him and bring in a better replacement, or stick with him for another season?

 

[Gint11]

Keep. Still looks sharp. He’s good for being a 3rd or 4th choice. Whether he’d be happy with that is another thing.

This is what I said at start of season. Got stick then but as always covcity4life is always right!!

Mind you in all seriousness he's done better than I expected this season. I would keep and then look to move him on in the summer with nothing but love

 

[Evo1883]

Had a bad run of form , but is always good for a few goals when he's on it .. keep him , he's a good striker

 

[Cally Fedora]

Wright & Simms first choice. Godden plus a young loan as back up.

 

[Sick Boy]

He's decent enough as backup but would have him 4th choice with another relatively experienced striker (probably a journeyman) brought in as backup.

 

[SkyblueDad]

Godden leaves we need two new strikers, I’d keep him until end of season

 

[Jamieb87ccfc]

Godden signed a new deal and is rated by Robins so won’t be leaving this season. Pointless thread.

 

[long way home]

I got a feeling Robins is not sentimental about the players or the job he is paid to do. If he can get a younger player in that improves the squad he will without a 2nd thought. Godden will be no different than any other player in the squad, who he likes doesn't mean shit.

I think he is looking for mor pace to bring into the squad as it suits the set up. Im not down on Godden by the way and would happily have him around i just dont see him here much longer.

 

[Deity]

Move him on in the summer

 

[Skyblue Bangkok]

If we can get nearly £1m for him, it would be a good move. I think he'd do very well at a big League 1 clid be

 

[Skyblue Bangkok]

Maybe he wants regular first team football, and he knows he isn't guaranteed it here with Simms arriving and rumours of others on their way.

It would be a big decision to let him leave, as someone like Simms could learn a lot from him, and he'd be a great player to have on the bench if your chasing a game.

What would Simms learn from Golden ? How not to to take pens ?

 

[shmmeee]

I’d keep him about. He’s part of the L1 team and that’s still important and he is still our top scorer.

But agree we need another backup, someone who can play the Simms role if needed.

 

[Skyblue Bangkok]

If we can get nearly £1m for him, it would be a good move. I think he'd do very well at a big League 1 club.

I doubt we would get much in the way of a fee for him, getting him off the wage bill would be more realistic.

 

[Skyblue Bangkok]

Would have to be a decent fee to let him go. Godden proven time and time again that he’ll get you goals.

Yes 1 goal in 11 games is prolific lol

 

[fatso]

Well for a start, (as you asked) Godden averages a goal every 2.5 games for us, where as Simms has only scored in 1 game for us, so I'd suggest there's plenty Simms could learn.

He's a proven scorer at this level, any team that needs a bit of a pep in that department would be interested.

 

[skyblu3sk]

I'd let Godden go, it's odd to say about our "top scorer" but let's be honest wright and Simms have way more capability to go on to be awesome strikers. Godden isn't bad but our whole style of play seems off when he's on the pitch, I think we can do better. With his injury record too I'd say he's played his best football for us.

 

[skybluecam]

We have him signed up till 2025, as long as he's fine with being 2/3 choice then he's a good backup to have.

Alternatively if he wants a move to start again I wouldn't begrudge him it, but would look for some kind of fee.

Assume you are meaning in training? If we keep with this system there is no front three role that would suit Goddens attributes. If Robins wants to go two up top during games he is a good option but would be a bit part role be enough for him? I would understand it if he wanted a move.
