He's hardly played any football.
In his last regular run of games he got 7 in 17 in this league, he'll be fine along as we give him the ammo.
He’s finished 4 chances well against league 2 opposition, so obviously knows where the net is when chances are created for him. Other than that, he has contributed very little in the 4 games and was totally anonymous against Shrewsbury and today. The touches he did have today were consistently poor, and I can’t remember him even having a touch in the box today (might be wrong).
Clearly Robins must have seen something in him, but whatever it was he’s hiding it pretty well at the moment.
It’s also clear that it’s way too early to write him off, as he will undoubtedly be the main striker in the weeks to come so will have plenty of chance to improve. Let’s hope for better from him when the real stuff starts.

That's nothing to do with me is it? I said no witchhunt on SBT.Lol just proving a point , about 6 seconds of looking
Still going on ? It's gone nowThat's nothing to do with me is it? I said no witchhunt on SBT.
I've only seen posters saying don't want him to start but want to keep him as squad player.
You want to stop when I give you a reasonable response. Stick to it this timeStill going on ? It's gone now
Haha, bloody predictive text, SheafoThat chant sounds fishy to me. There's a time and a plaice for chants like that, but I can't sea it catching on.
I wouldn't take that too seriously, he sent the same to me on whatsapp during the game with a laughing emoji, he like you thinks Godden has been great for us but like me doesn't think he can take us to the next levelLol just proving a point , about 6 seconds of looking
He’s struggled to make an impact against the two League One teams we’ve played but will need time as he’s coming from a lower level than our other signingsDisappointed with Sakamoto today, wanted to see him take on their fullback more, nutmeg etc.
We rarely gave him the ball in the final third. I'm not convinced he's a wingback, and think he will be better in a 2 in a box midfield. He can then float out wide like O'Hare does.Disappointed with Sakamoto today, wanted to see him take on their fullback more, nutmeg etc.

I'm very unsure as to how you could have watched today's game and said Simms was "anonymous"...
If he'd have executed the ball right he'd have had two assistsOk, please tell me what he did to influence the game today? His involvement was minimal, exactly the same as last Saturday. He appears to be effective if we feed balls into him in the box but we didn’t do that today.

Sssshhhhh.Disappointed with Sakamoto today, wanted to see him take on their fullback more, nutmeg etc.
So did Geoff Salmons.Liking the look of lati. Got a good leap on him
You said he did nothing to influence the game yet agree that he was a couple of sloppy passes away from potentially two assistsIf.

If Godden could finish he definitely would have had assists. Unlike Gyokeres he actually passed more when he should have gone himselfOk, please tell me what he did to influence the game today?

I have seen him score 4 goals so far and a decent overall contribution. If thats you being underwhelmed then you are in for a long seasonClearly you are happy with what you’ve seen from him so far and I’m underwhelmed. Let’s agree to disagree and I’m sure we both want to see him do well.

I agree watched on tv and it looked to me Simms seemed play a yard or two deeper to than at MK Dons & Godden a bit ahead of him, don’t know if that was a tactic or just as it looked on tv. In fact Godden had a couple of decent half chances shall I say which their keeper saved. Simms needs a bit of time and fans have to realise how different he is to Gyokeres.I'm very unsure as to how you could have watched today's game and said Simms was "anonymous"...
I enjoyed jack Burroughs twice taking his man on and beating him for pace, very direct.
Has to go out on loan and get regular starts, so does Howley
Enjoyable day out. Like the look of Thomas; old school with 60 yards pings thrown in. Lati will be the new Fadz. Sheaf/Eccles class. Godden never stopped, looked sharp. Palmer is so talented but his sloppiness with the easy balls is frustrating. Expected a bit more from Simms, but he has scored 4 in pre-season.
Btw, did anyone hear the Vik song?...
They've got a fat Swede on their side
Plays for Sporting, green and white
Being fat is what he does best
And he goes by the name of Gyokeres
Palmer played very well, but he and everyone else played second fiddle to Hamer.You've praised Godden who was wearing his slippers yesterday and somehow managed to get a dig in at Palmer who was head and shoulders the best player on the pitch.
Some good cider down there?
