Watch Godden get a hattrick against Maidstone.
So if Wright struggled in his favoured position but prospered out wide, what does that tell you about our tactics?Telling of what?
By all accounts Simms cost 3 mil. If he thinks he’s worth it then he should put his big boy pants on and step up to the plate. Wright will always be criticised due to his playing style, but I would have him ahead of Godden and Simms.

But I don't think Wright has struggled when played in the centre and the majority of his goals have come when he has played there. He has more assists when playing in the wider role.So if Wright struggled in his favoured position but prospered out wide, what does that tell you about our tactics?

He's played roughly the same amount in both positions. Subjectively I think he has played better on the left but he has proved it is possible to score in the middle in this team. Also he played in the centre more at the beginning when he was adjusting to playing in a new team/country.So the consensus would be that so far, he’s played his better football at LW or ST? I don’t think MR would agree with that as things stand today.
The difference is Tuesday’s goal v Wednesday and he’s played upfront about 3-5 times more than LW. So if we wanted to go into the granular detail, he’s probably got a better MPG playing LW atm.

Ridiculous postNever want to see the sulking twat in a City shirt again. Seems to think we as fans owe him something. Fuck off.
Very unfair - he has been an absolute legend. He is not getting the rub of the green right now and going through a sticky patch - this is the time he needs the support of the fans more than ever!Never want to see the sulking twat in a City shirt again. Seems to think we as fans owe him something. Fuck off.
Some mental stuff on here (not specifically this thread) about Godden. Even if we accept our best front 4 is:He's ours till end of season for sure
Save the obituaries. He may still have a magic moment or two left in him for us. Let's pray that happens
Agree.Some mental stuff on here (not specifically this thread) about Godden. Even if we accept our best front 4 is:
Sakamoto - O'Hare - Wright
Simms
Godden and Palmer are the only 2 proper attacking subs we have. If we need a goal in a BIG game and someone takes a knock I am going to be way happier seeing Godden come on than seeing dasilva take the wing.
Yes, that shouldn't be seen as me writing off Dasilva in more general terms. I'm very specifically thinking about the player I want it falling to 8 yards out in the final minute of the playoff final.Agree.
Although da Silva was good today and is an option albeit not ideal for lw
Daft post of the week so far….Never want to see the sulking twat in a City shirt again. Seems to think we as fans owe him something. Fuck off.
He has scored far more since he has played off the left with licence to cut in. Sunday was a classic example with him struggling as the lone forward, switched to the left and then scores two.But I don't think Wright has struggled when played in the centre and the majority of his goals have come when he has played there. He has more assists when playing in the wider role.
He got into position to score 2 goals last night, he got a piss poor connection on the first, and the second effort hit the keepers leg. Fine margins for a striker, on another day he gets all the plaudits for scoring 2 goals.I,ve said it before, Matty for some reason has lost his mojo but that doesn't mean he won't get it back. Missing 3 out of his last 4 penalties is not the player who never missed but it is also not indicative of getting too old. Never had great pace, his brilliance was his speed of thought and execution in the box. He has looked poor recently and I get why people think it is all over for him. However, write Matty off at your peril.
No way was wrights chance easierHaji Wright missed an arguably easier chance vs Millwall.
I said arguablyNo way was wrights chance easier
Why are you trying so hard to get godden off the hook for a bad miss though? Would wright and Simms get you lawyered up in the same way?I said arguably

Am I trying that hard? It’s a shocker, as was Wrights.Why are you trying so hard to get godden off the hook for a bad miss though? Would wright and Simms get you lawyered up in the same way?
He's just been to Arsenal lately with his nipper?Not that I am defending MG's form, but didn't he become a dad for the first time late last year? Some will know of the domestic turmoil that will cause and perhaps its catching him up. He's been a good player for us and until recently, many would have been distraught if he wasn't on the team sheet. how times change quickly.....
Just in case you missed it I’ve asked you what you meant by this final comment.Why are you trying so hard to get godden off the hook for a bad miss though? Would wright and Simms get you lawyered up in the same way?
The more obvious conclusion would just be that age is catching up with him. Which as someone of the same age is pretty sobering but there we areNot that I am defending MG's form, but didn't he become a dad for the first time late last year?
