New boo boy identified

He’s not a boo boy but you have to be objective and say he’s underwhelming -
I’ve hardly criticised him on here but you can’t just suddenly say he’s great when he isn’t

Feel there may be a sad day coming for us very soon @Evo1883

We backed him to the hilt, you probably even more so. A massive victim of ongoing success.

Yes cos a 3rd of them are in league 1, and he doesn't take penalties.

But Simms is no where near the finished article. Godden wasn't playing championship football at 22.

Your embarrassing comments on Haji Wright make your opinions null and void

We should always look to upgrade , langstaff if true feels like a direct godden replacement , younger sharper and high work rate .. I just wish our fans wouldn't b such bellends on social media towards players that have done so much for us .. that's it really

Godden can still do a job here and I trust Robins to get it right with him
I don't disagree with you on this btw so can confirm we're not arguing.

We agree on a lot so it's cool if we disagree on here whether Godden is much use at Championship level still or not. No hate bro.

His return is diabolical .. but we have to afford him time , at some point though fans won't just accept him occupying defenders

Let's be honest godden owes us nothing , we paid the fee , he got us promoted he's scored his goals .. simms needs to start scoring goals .. I'm still hopeful it will come

I get the point that without his goals in league 1 we wouldn’t have been promoted

His performances have deserved alot more. Godden could not have operated like Simms did at Leeds - fact.

I thought simms had a decent game at Leeds, but they are different players .. simms couldn't have scored those 2 goals today imo ..

Simms tried to volley past the keeper today when All he had to do was lift it over him

He panicks

Just be happy he scored 2 goals today. Wether he goes now or in summer or doesn't at all doesnt change much for us. We want our strikers scoring goals right?

Well do we ? We have fans yet again lauding a striker that can't score goals and berating ones that can .

You'd think ellis simms had a worldie today based off social media

Seriously though , langstaff would be a good addition

If you look at some of his goals before he came here he looked fairly calm in front of goal. Currently it's the one major failing of our management team being unable to get that out of him.

Before this game Godden was struggling to score himself.
Unfortunately he is not at the required level to play for us in the league consistently.

everyone is slagging off Simms lack of goals, but his work is allowing Sakamoto and Wright to score a lot more. If it were Godden in for Simmsi doubt the other 2 would be scoring so many

It’s a joy finally to have different striker options, they all bring something different and that’s their value, listened to quite a few interviews on podcasts and cannot say whether Godden is fed up of fans abuse or not but those interviews etc all highlight that strikers hate it when they don’t start games, they want the team to win but not the other strikers to score.

I feel like Godden believes he should start every game, his goal record suggests he could but it’s about finding the right system and that might not be him starting every game, trust Robins to manage but would happily still want Godden here to the end of this season, it sure next, don’t think he would get away with the offsides in the prem with var 😉

I think saka and wright get those goals anyway , I think we score a load more if Simms starts scoring .

Look I'm semi joking , Simms has time on his hands as long as we're getting results fans will give him time ..it's how fans react when we lose a few and Simms misses a few chances

They all play on sky blue so for me if one does well don't mean have to get on back of others

I think Simms is showing good signs so I'm happy to be patient with him

I would have Simms start let godden Vs Leicester too. But if godden starts or comes on as a sub it will be off the back of a brace and that can only be a good thing for the team.

I haven't seen langstaff play so can't comment. But I have always said I want to see godden upgraded upon. We had a bit of argument over it in summer and still not really sure why as it seems you agree on that too. Doesn't change how good he has been for us but everyone's time comes to an end and he would be one of top of my list to find a better replacement for that's all.

I'm joking mate , I hope Simms comes good , still too early to fully make an opinion, there is a concern with his goal return but let's see what happens

Fortunately you’re not the manager.
I think the last post on this thread before it was dredged back up was him calling Haji Wright a donkey...
