Which one out of Godden and Vik would you drop long term for him this season?
Which one out of Godden and Vik would you drop long term for him this season?and why can't he get sustained first team football here, he is more than capable, he will prove all the doubters wrong .

I wouldn't drop either as they are our best two strikers, but inevitably one (or both) will pick up an injury, or a suspension or just need resting, at which point I'd like to see Tavares given a chance. We know Waghorn and Walker arnt the answer, but maybe, just maybe Tavares is.Which one out of Godden and Vik would you drop long term for him this season?
but why send him out if we can develop his game from the subs bench. I’d hope he’s starting games in a few months time.Ideally I think he’d be sent out on loan to League 1; without proper investment this probably isn’t going to happen.
He’s currently our only option to inject pace from the bench, he’s also got an eye for goal. Loaning him out would be crazy with our current squad.I still can’t believe people are calling for an unproven 22 year old with no first team league experience to be playing for us
Send the kid out on loan

Surely it would be Waghorn. We need four strikers especially if we play two and the best ones are clearly Gyokeres, Godden, Walker and Tavares. I guess the problem is that Walker is more likely to appeal to League 1 teams than Waghorn.I don’t think he’s going on loan , we will need him if anyone it will be Walker

He’s spent his entire career has a striker. He’s not mobile enough to play as a 10 for us.IMO Waggy isn’t a striker - he can score and make a goal - he can also come on and fill a striker role if required
I agree with everything other than the “not far behind Godden” claimPersonally, I see Tav as 3rd choice striker. And not far behind Godden either. The miss doesn't bother me, it happens. But Tav gives us something Goddders doesn't. The game shifted so much when he and Dabo came on.
No way he should go out on loan. He is more than capable, and should get a handful of starts this year.
Need to get Waghorn off the wage bill. His Championship days are behind him.

I reckon with O’hare next to him he could work in that 10 role, however O’hare is injured so we can forget all about that and wish him luck on his future endeavoursHe’s spent his entire career has a striker. He’s not mobile enough to play as a 10 for us.

Christ - the only way he’s going to be starting games in a few months is if we’re relegated to league 1.but why send him out if we can develop his game from the subs bench. I’d hope he’s starting games in a few months time.
Seen a lot of him have you?Christ - the only way he’s going to be starting games in a few months is if we’re relegated to league 1.
He’s majorly overrated on here - he’s a decent prospect but to say he’s good enough to be a starter with team that’s supposed to have play-off ambitions is madness.Seen a lot of him have you?
But what do you base your judgement on? I don't have a clue from the amount I have seen of him but have you seen lots of him in training or u23 games to have this extra insight?He’s majorly overrated on here - he’s a decent prospect but to say he’s good enough to be a starter with team that’s supposed to have play-off ambitions is madness.

Not sure anyone is suggesting that and certainly not me but I don't understand on what basis certain people have decided he isn't good enoughThis has echos of Ponticelli levels of hype all over again.
Tavares looks like a promising player and possibly a good option off the bench, but no way should be starting ahead of Gyokeres, Godden or Walker yet.
Not sure about Waghorn, but they both offer different things to the team
I think he's overcorrecting the ones acting like he's the answer when they, just like thee and me, don't have a clue either!But what do you base your judgement on?

No one’s said he doesn’t have the potential to be good enough. He does need to play regular first team football to reach his potential, IMO….as does any player.Not sure anyone is suggesting that and certainly not me but I don't understand on what basis certain people have decided he isn't good enough
If he is massively overrated we may offload him Look at Tom Bayliss career trajectory. We profited. We gave Ponticelli some runouts and then loaned him out. Early days yet.Christ - the only way he’s going to be starting games in a few months is if we’re relegated to league 1.
There's another correlation between those that don't like Godden and those that don't like Tavares. The route cause being that they want Walker to play instead of either of them. God help if Tavares is actually any good and leap frogs Walker, every false move will be met with calls to be dropped, as we have seen with Godden after one uncharacteristic miss.
Who has said Godden should be dropped?
You missed out the correlation of those of us who like Godden, and Walker and Tavares as back up, but think Waghorn should leave as he is slow/crap/his freed up wages would be useful*
(*choose your favourite)
Just because you like Tavares and Walker doesn’t mean who don’t want Godden partnering Gyokeres.
I rate Godden but he's very slow, playing against a slow back 4 I'd play Walker. Walker the one that scored twice against Rotherham at St Andrews.Go on the match thread, several people are dropping Godden for Walker. It's the same pattern every time.
I agree that Tavares is raw and to throw him in this early is silly, but some are really knocking him down at every opportunity, and they are the same people that do it with Godden whilst regularly calling for Walker to play.
I honestly think we will get a tune out of Walker he’s a goal scorer and think he’s worth keeping also keep Tavares for his pace….
Now if we could offload Waghorn to Derby as they seem to be signing old has beens for league one!!
And one with Championship experience, Martyn Waghorn off you go mate!!Rotherham are desperate for a striker

Need to keep Waghorn around I think. If O'Hare is out until Nov/Dec we need players that can slot into that No 10 role. Walker and Kane to go hopefully.And one with Championship experience, Martyn Waghorn off you go mate!!
