I really don’t think I would describe Viktor as a great goal scorer. His conversion rate was only just over half of Goddens and despite him scoring so many goals only just made the top 20 in the league for goals from shots.Just not convinced him and Vik make a great partnership despite both being great goalscorers.
Id like a third option with pace for when we need it, it’s the one glaring hole in Goddens game.

So what words do you use to describe Mitrovic at 43 league goals or come to that the 7 players who scored more goals that Gyokeres. Given this is the second tier of English football great as far too high an accolade. Good or even possibly very good but certainly not great.At the end of the day, he scored 18 goals. That’s a great goalscorer if you ask me, even if he could’ve had 30.
18 goals in a mid table team seems like a great goalscorer to me mateSo what words do you use to describe Mitrovic at 43 league goals or come to that the 7 players who scored more goals that Gyokeres.

Yeah, let’s just slag off our best striker in years.So what words do you use to describe Mitrovic at 43 league goals or come to that the 7 players who scored more goals that Gyokeres.

Yeah I’d agree with that they didn’t seem to click when they played togetherJust not convinced him and Vik make a great partnership despite both being great goalscorers.

Your whole thing also shows why there's a place for Godden however. Played really well - lost 1-0.I have tried writing it several times and disagree with myself when writing it so I don't really know how to articulate my point properly. This will probably sound harsher than I want it to. I love Godden. I back him to score most half chances he gets at Championship level, he's a proper finisher. His all round game isn't good enough for Championship. If he's not scoring, he doesn't offer much. I certainly want him in the squad, but he would be my 'second' choice rather than my go to striker. Vik's finishing isn't at the same level but his all round play is so good. We lost 1-0 at the Riverside and he was comfortably the best player on the pitch as an example (probably why they want him so much). I guess to summarize, I think Godden will always have an impact in terms of goal contribution, but I am not sure we would have finished much better off with him fully fit as I feel overall performances (not always!!!) aren't as strong with him in the 11.
Fuck me, some people are unbelievable,I really don’t think I would describe Viktor as a great goal scorer. His conversion rate was only just over half of Goddens and despite him scoring so many goals only just made the top 20 in the league for goals from shots.
Indeed and the last 2 seasons be played left wing. Think he got something like 17 assists too in that 2005/06 season. 15 goals 17 assists, that's some return for a winger /attacking midfielder.Impressive from McSheffrey double figures for three seasons
Unlike Godden he was a master at winning penalties - for half of them I remember being amazed from my view in the WT that he didn’t get booked and got a penalty instead.Indeed and the last 2 seasons be played left wing.

Eh?Wow, that says it all.
And when you factor in that Gyokeres wasn't our first choice striker, and it's his first full season in the championship, and he played as a loan striker for much of it, that's some bloody achievement.

I agree. As I said, struggled with how to really get my point across. The game could have been a 1-1 draw or better but we (on the face of it) played worse. I am not trying to write Godden off by any stretch, I just think we 'play' better with the box and Gyok up top on his own.Your whole thing also shows why there's a place for Godden however. Played really well - lost 1-0.
Every time we bring someone in, Goden manages to look better than them.I like Godden but if we’re serious about progression he’d be a squad player/impact sub. How many other clubs who are serious about promotion would have him as a first choice?
Didn’t realise you were new to the forumI think it's reasonable to suggest a full season he breaks 20 .. can't actually believe we are doing this again
