Is that what the fingers in ears is all about? What's the story behind that?

The thing is , people on twitter are angry at godden for sticking his fingers in his ears .. but at the same time want to tag him abuse etc .

One fan today said we should sell him for the celebration

He was targeted on twitter after Sunday's game by one of the faceless trolls who make it such a sewer of social media

He only needs to look at the support for him today to see what the real fans think of him. He shouldn't lower himself to that tbf but i can understand it.

His goal wasn't even that good today , but as the game went on you could see the confidence to link with palmer and haji / simms was there .. he enjoyed today.. was involved in all 3 goals


We've been spoiled by vik , and this season will see godden ( if he remains fit ) re emerge as the forward we all know he is

Fair point. It’s ambiguous, but I prefer the lawnmower!

Honestly fuck the lot of you who questioned him. His stats don’t lie. He sacrificed his own game last year for the good of the team and if you can’t see that then you’re clueless.

Super Matt, great hair and absolute bagsman

Agreed. Think people have to remember he was coming back from injury last season-he looks properly sharp now. I think he needs to rise above 1 idiot giving him shite on "X", though. If it's motivating him though fair enough I suppose.

What's an "absolute bagsman"? Is it "a mate whose hair is so good that when you go out with him you pull too just from gravity"? Or is it blogger for "goal scorer"? If it's the former, that's OK!

That's 41 goals in 81 league starts , or 41 in 105 league appearances at city .

I can see him hitting 15 this term

I'm not a fan of all that stats fixated media bollocks (xG, heat maps, KMs covered, number of Taylor Swift streams etc,) developed by techy nerds.

However...

#For class in EFL
If "Goals scored" / "games played"
= >.39
Print ("Success")


That is a great stat for a professional footballer.

If I was a manager I'd probably get my players off Twitter tbh. It's pretty much inevitable what happened to Godden is going to happen to every player at some point, unfortunately arseholes are unavoidable. In fact if he's avoided it up until now then he's done well.

I guarantee there’s not 1 person in this country who’s played football in any iteration that’s not been called shit at any point, you get called worse playing 5 - side at the AT7 centre

Despite us having spent heavily on Wright and Simms, Godden looks worth his place at the moment. Good on him.

To me, Simms looks like a decent player - he had a few nice touches yesterday - who is lacking in confidence. It will help him greatly if he can get a goal sooner or later and if the fans stay on his side and don't turn against him.

Wright shows great promise both as an entertainer and as a goalscorer.

Fair play to him I reckon. I’d print out an oversize Twitter post, like a one of those giant cheques saying “Suck on that you cunts” every time I scored. For the craic of course.

This isn’t really a deliberate bump but he’s surely a concern now. He really is slow and the way we play he’s rarely in the penalty area - looks like he’s had his day to me

Though it was a pretty accurate assessment to be fair to them.

I’m really glad he’s staying - in terms of being in the right place at the right time he’s the most natural poacher we’ve got. He’s almost guaranteed 10 goals a season at full fitness even if he ends up dropping off the bench a lot this season.

3 goals in 4 games
Assist for Haji’s goal against Boro
Plus his shot which was an OG against Boro.

3 goals and 2 assists in 4 games. That is some form to start the season and he hasn’t even got into his stride.

And (oh and I’m sure it’s going to evoke a response from the usual fan club) it’s why you sometimes look at other far more gifted naturally talented individuals with negativity when they struggle to see oit games

Godden can’t just score goals. The days of Mick Quinn are long gone. He looked spent for pace last season and struggling. He’s addressed it and his sharpened up his movement and overall game

I reckon his current all-round performances are as good as I've seen from him. If only he'd buried one of those shots at Leicester.
Sluggish for a lot of last season, but clearly motoring now.
