Signing Waghorn and possibly Gyokres would mean that Godden will be given time to make a full recovery without being rushed back prematurely.If I’m being honest I don’t think he will ever be fully fit, I don’t think he will fully recover from his current injury.
I’d be looking to move him on in all honestyIf I’m being honest I don’t think he will ever be fully fit, I don’t think he will fully recover from his current injury.
When robins comes out and says surgery is not possible to put it right it makes me wonder and think it's something that your never free of.Signing Waghorn and possibly Gyokres would mean that Godden will be given time to make a full recovery without being rushed back prematurely.
it's a condition not real y an injury when it's bad it's bad I suffer from it and it never real y goes awayWhen robins comes out and says surgery is not possible to put it right it makes me wonder and think it's something that your never free of.
Be difficult to shift for a fee if that trouble some foot injury still hasn’t completely gone away.If Gyokores comes in I have a feeling we will move him on, top end league 1 teams would pay for him. Not sure that injury is going to go away and this could be the last chance to get a few.
And your not a footballer.but even for you when it's bad it's bad?it's a condition not real y an injury when it's bad it's bad I suffer from it and it never real y goes away
We could… sign another striker?Can’t see us moving Godden on, and why would we? We need 4 strikers so therefore Walker, Gyokores, Godden, Waghorn
As a fourth choice? Not likely to get someone as good as Godden to be 4th choiceWe could… sign another striker?
Not sure what you’ve taken exception to there. He’s been our #1 striker for 2 seasons, we’ve rushed him back from injury last year. This year we’ve significantly improved our options and even fully fit he’s not necessarily a guaranteed starter. In a squad with so much unity, would absolutely expect Robins to be setting player expectations as both motivation and to avoid discontent further down the line.Honestly some of our fans.....
"we’ve made it clear he has to fight for his place"
Robins, not you nor I is the arbiter of any player.Not sure what you’ve taken exception to there. He’s been our #1 striker for 2 seasons, we’ve rushed him back from injury last year.

Of course he is. But it’s my club so referred to it as we while outlining why I wouldn’t want to bin off our best striker for the last 2 seasons for a nominal fee. What an odd thing to take exception to on a supporters forum.Robins, not you nor I is the arbiter of any player.
The problem is we still have to replace him then, and you’re not going to get a striker of his calibre to accept a squad player position. We’re better off risking Godden for 1 more year than going down the other routeI think people are missing the point with Godden. No one is saying get rid because he isn’t good enough but this could realistically be the last chance we have to get a fee for him. A league one side would probably pay £500k for him but with his injury issues at his age that isn’t likely to be the case next summer. It’s more that we could cash in now or effectively risk writing off the transfer fee to keep him for another season. Course if he stays fit and gets goals that won’t matter
Whos saying Godden will want a squad position? Or even be fit to fill that positionThe problem is we still have to replace him then, and you’re not going to get a striker of his calibre to accept a squad player position.

Godden is still contracted to the club already, so if he’s fit it’s likely to be his role. Convincing someone who isn’t already contracted is more difficult.Whos saying Godden will want a squad position? Or even be fit to fill that position
As far as i know we are not looking to sell any players unless a ridiculous offer comes inI think people are missing the point with Godden.

Genuine question- Are there many sides in L1 who would be able to pay 500k for a player?I think people are missing the point with Godden.

I’m sure Sunderland would too.Not really, Ipswich are the only ones I can think of due to their recent takeover
This! We’ve got people saying “sell him - he’s got recurring injuries that he’s not yet recovered from” then expecting a league one club to disregard this and say we’ll give you 500k for a 30 year old with 1 year left on his contract and an injury he’s not yet recovered from.Genuine question- Are there many sides in L1 who would be able to pay 500k for a player?
Godden is our most capable goalscorer in my opinion. We’ve been behind Jodi Jones for three years injured who’s done nowhere near what Godden has done for us, why are so many giving up on him? Gyokeres goal scoring history isn’t that great, Walker blew hot and cold but had a good track record previously and Waghorn’s goals were in Scottish Prem
Godden will come good

And Walker was our top scorer despite getting Covid and having injuries. He was hardly hot and coldWaghorn scored 16 goals for Ipswich in a season in the championship after playing in Scotland and 12 In a season for derby
