No idea, only a few weeks ago Robins was saying his qualities were more aligned with what he wants in his strikers.

Robins likes his strikers to have a high work rate, press high and have a good technical grounding in terms of movement and finishing ability.

Problem with BTA is that he only really has the first two.

Its a good job the 2nd two can be trained into a Striker, we did it with Vik and who better to learn from than MR and even Haji Wright. Its a shame Godders isnt here still he could have been a massive help

Godden was awful last season slower than a mobility scooter .

Always worked incredibly hard and is a better finisher than asante .

Godden really shouldn't be being disrespected after what we are seeing this season

You surely cant question his positioning and finishing, just because he has all the pace of a broken down 1 wheeled mobility scooter doesnt mean his other attributes are shit he knows where the net is

He scored just 1 league goal in last 28 appearances for us last season. His legs were gone and he couldn't get in the right positions at the right time at this level. He would currently be 5th choice.

Yes because his legs have gone Im on about his pure ability to strike a ball and his positioning, would have been useful to train into Asante thats all Im saying

This was about BTE and quite frankly, he’s on my list of….’ Thought you were going to be better, but can now see why your previous club moved you on ‘ …..for money !

Another doug bling masterclass, giving up 5% of viks sell on clause for us to sign a striker we didn’t need, he’s such a fucking clown

Wasn’t Robins after him for years?

Just the way we signed him wasn’t right, I wouldn’t have gave up any of viks sell on %

I thought that was Sportings choice to make? I’m pretty sure there was a caveat in the contract saying they could buy out half the sell on % for so many million. They released the details of the deal when we sold him and it was mentioned on here it was a strange caveat but basically meant we either got a big sell on or big bonuses but not both.

Fair enough I didn't realise you meant in a coaching / mentoring capacity.
