Scored 2 in 2 arguably takes his chance and dropped,of Robins preferred players who work harder off the ball than him why chase him for so long ?

Godden and Vic are 1st choice… and rightly so

Well they weren’t until waghorn got Covid and Godden has scored less goals on this league than Walker hasn’t he? It was idiotic to drop him

Felt sorry for Walker today, scoring 2 in 2 and being dropped won’t do his confidence any good

In fairness Robins first tried to sign him when we were in League One, now we are (temporarily at least) a top 6 championship team.

But we have 4 good strikers, compare it to last season and it's night and day, we're so much stronger up front.

Nice try. Did you forget Godden’s surgery? He was late to gaining fitness.

What are you on about? Walker last season had Covid and injuries - he’s scored I think 15 championship goals and Godden 8 - 3 of which are penalties

I think Godden has a better goals/ games ratio than Walker in the Championship

The even stranger one was leaving Rose out and Robins saying we had enough cover on the bench. Did we?

Does he? Can’t be bothered to check - show me

So by that logic Emile Heskey has more Premier League goals than Lionel Messi so is clearly the better striker.

With the 2 Chelsea lads struggling with fitness since coming here and salter just back was strange regarding rose

 

[Grendel]

Godden was late gaining fitness after surgery on his foot you fucking melt. It took a few games for him to even make the bench.

How’s Nick ?

Drunk again?

It’s laughable

 

[cc84cov]

@Frostie is my got to man for stats I’m sure he can find out who’s got the better record in the champ

He was good in the 2 games played I thought. Seems to be the fall guy

He got 25 mins

 

[cc84cov]

He got 25 mins

He should of started for me Pete

 

[Sick Boy]

It should have been up to Godden to win his place back in the team - it’s poor man management by Robins.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

They will be rotated . If he’d got 5 I would have been annoyed as it was it was in midfield where we needed to be braver

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

He should of started for me Pete

But if he doesn’t Robins has to give him time to be involved and he did

How do you know?

You don’t believe in playing your strongest team then? Robins clearly rates Godden higher than Walker, how is it bad management to start who you think is the stronger player?

 

[Grendel]

Godden played

It’s laughable

Walkers goals per minute in the championship is higher than Godden surely?

Did seem very odd to drop the bloke who'd scored goals. tbf Godden looked sharp today too.

Have thought for a while Robins just doesn't rate the type of striker Walker is, which makes it slightly odd he chased him to sign him - but there is a touch of the Aloisis about how his Cov career is going.

 

[COV]

I *think* … someone may want to double check..

In the Championship:
Walker- games 85, goals 14- 1 every 6
Godden- games 34, goals 8- 1 every 4

Our team need all 10 outfield players to give their all maybe Walker doesn’t and Robins thought he could get him to change his style a little. Perfect chance in added time but passed it instead of shooting. I like Walker and think he’s third behind yok and godden it seems Robins thinks that too
How has maatsen missed the target in added time?

 

[PVA]

Championship minutes - goals - minutes per goal


Godden - 1876 - 9 - 208
Walker - 3833 - 14 - 273

Godden is clearly the better player. This ‘debate’ is being driven by WUMS and the delusional

Similar chance to Peterborough game. Was expecting the net to ripple

Out of interest what is it from open play? I think godden got 2-3 pens last season plus 2 this season.

Edit:

Open play

Godden 1876 - 5 - 375
Walkee 3833 - 13 - 295

Thank you, no doubt more accurate than me, and still showing that Godden has the better scoring rate in The Championship.

Now waiting for the usual people to say “but penalties don’t count”

Why did Robins sign him for a higher fee then - are you saying that was poor management?

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Walker v Godden is the new Hamer v Walsh. How exciting

 

[usskyblue]

Your opinion has zero value on this forum… but seeing as you ask? There’s no doubt that Godden is a better player for the reasons I’ve already stated. What the fuck has management got to do with it you weirdo ?

What would Jackett have done ? And where’s Nick ?
