It’s not just about the goals though, there’s a reason we were bringing on Tavares over Godden at the end of the season.BTA scores once every 4 games, Godden in the championship is 1 in just under 3 games.
we’re throwing stupid money away if we pay anymore than a couple of million for him, I’d rather have that Belgian guy for 1.2m
we need to replace Godden- But BTA isn’t the answer

I hope I’m proven wrong - but I’m I’m just convinced he’ll just be a waste of money.I'm sorry but that's bollocks
For a second choice striker he would be more than good enough. Who do you genuinely think we could attract for this role instead?I hope I’m proven wrong - but I’m I’m just convinced he’ll just be a waste of money.
Again - I’d rather have that Belgian guy that was linked. Never seen him play like - it’s a case of not paying more than 2m for BTA, I’d expect WBA to want a bit more than that and he’s just not worth itFor a second choice striker he would be more than good enough.

11 goals in 39 championship appearances last year, and you think he’s a 2 million pound playerAgain - I’d rather have that Belgian guy that was linked. Never seen him play like - it’s a case of not paying more than 2m for BTA, I’d expect WBA to want a bit more than that and he’s just not worth it
You'd rather spunk money on a random Belgian that nobody has ever seen play than someone who has actually scored in this league?Again - I’d rather have that Belgian guy that was linked.

And only scored 7 in 33 the season before, He’s erratic, not a great player, he’s had one good season - not unlike Conor Chaplin who also scored 14 goals last season, Id be pretty confident in saying he doesn’t hit 10 goals if he comes to us.11 goals in 39 championship appearances last year, and you think he’s a 2 million pound player
If he’s coming in as a back up striker with those figures that’s a real positive
Who’s 21 and costs just under 1m the risk is lower and there’s room for development. Yeah - like I said if BTA is low cost, I’d go for it.

Poor take.BTA scores once every 4 games, Godden in the championship is 1 in just under 3 games.

Your missing the point, which is Godden's legs have gone, he's now slower than a snail towing a caravan with the handbrake on. Godden has been a great player for us but needs to be moved on ASAP.BTA scores once every 4 games, Godden in the championship is 1 in just under 3 games.

@Saddlebrains the striker still announced this week?
Been hinted at earlier in this thread I beleice.Where has Thomas Asante come from? not seen anything linking him to us?
I take it BTA was the name you’d been given as the striker that was nearly complete or being completed this week?I'd like to think so. As I said earlier (can't remember if it was on this thread) we ideally want Godden out first

Think that's highly unlikely.We could end up with nobody
Well end of last year we were playing Tavares over Godden so I wouldnt think we would be worse off reallyIsnt it a bit unsafe to get rid of Godden before getting in the replacement? We could end up with nobody and be worse off

Fair points. Just concerned about letting someone go before we have an improvement in
Is it wages we need to free up first or cash from a nominal fee?
EMC can cover the left with Haji moving into the middle.
Rudoni can cover the right. Raphael both sides, I think.
Leaves Tavares and Obikwu as emergency back-up options.

Isn't it to do with financial year ends being end of June?Im confused as to why he needs to go before we sign another striker then
People are talking about it like he's being announced tonight
Just thought i'd missed something
Doubt it's either to be honest. Wages will be repurposed elsewhere but it's simply the fact we've out grown him now and/or he is tailing off. He just isn't required.
