Championship Top Scorers - BBC Sport
Championship top scorers. Showing assists, time on pitch and the shots on and off target.
In what universe did that happen? I assume not our one. Godden’s name is sung almost every week.Tyler Walker was given a better time than Godden by so many fans. It’ll go down as one of CCFC’s biggest ever travesties.
So many people wanted him dropped in Walker’s stead. A fair few would still have him dropped now, it’s insane.In what universe did that happen? I assume not our one. Godden’s name is sung almost every week.
When we were in league 1 our famous talent scout on here (that man G) said he wouldn’t get in any other league 1 squad. It’s not just him though, he ritually doesn’t get the respect he deserves for years he’s been here. Proper striker.
Yes I'd have Godden on the bench on Monday.So many people wanted him dropped in Walker’s stead. A fair few would still have him dropped now, it’s insane.
I’d like to see Godden and Simms start, and then Wright come on for Godden after 60 mins or so.Can't drop Godden at the mo, he has delivered how.
I reckon mayb go Godden & Simms on Monday.
Actually thought Simms was ok when he came on against Cardiff, linked up play was decent and he needs pitch time to get going. Also think style wise Wright has more chance of making impact off the bench as he is a dynamic player, put him on against tired legs.
Get the u21s in then Ernie mateYes I'd have Godden on the bench on Monday.
Simms and Wright are the future, they have to be.
The sooner they can build a partnership the better.

He started the campaign against Godden when we extended his contract two years ago saying it was a waste of money. One of his best!When we were in league 1 our famous talent scout on here (that man G) said he wouldn’t get in any other league 1 squad.

Some people wanted Gyokeres and Godden left out for Walker after he scored two in two.So many people wanted him dropped in Walker’s stead. A fair few would still have him dropped now, it’s insane.

He also said he should have been 'sent packing' last summer.
Godden does have the odd game where he doesn't contribute a great deal, but his goalscoring record is excellent. Brilliant finisher.
When Monday comes what’s the difference between PVA and Grendel
One is at the game. The other is sitting listening to Rob gurney and looking at some boring stats website and pictures of Kasey palmer
I’ll leave the forum to work out which is which
Why do you have this obsession with how many games I attend, but no one else on this forum?
You're really, really, weird.
And FYI I will be going on Monday if I test negative for Covid.
U21s didn't cost £10m Evo mateGet the u21s in then Ernie mate

Has to be Godden and Simms on Monday. No way can Godden be benched after delivering early doors this season. Shirt is his to lose.
So was Micky QuinnExcellent finisher but that's about it, limited in most other aspects.

Yeah, the argument isn't even as simple as if he scores he keeps his place, it's if dropping him would help the team score more.As with most things, I feel like the truth is between the two extremes. I absolutely love him, he’s been a huge part in our rise up the leagues, he’s also by far the player i’m most confident will bury a chance if he’s given half one in a game (the Leicester game is a massive anomaly in his career with us). There are way too many people who don’t credit him enough. On the flip side, the argument of “if he doesn’t score he doesn’t offer a lot” is also fair, I’ve seen him have some terrible games and not be involved at all. His overall record is good though. Noones arguing it but the difference between him and a Vik is Vik could not score and still run a game (Boro away a few seasons ago as an example). It’s not for want of trying Godden works his arse of but he lacks any pace, strength or power. No chance he should be dropped on this form, especially when the argument is he does nothing but score, the other two (or at least Wright) is offering nothing and not scoring.
I also think Walker got a rough time so don’t believe the “walker was favoured over Godden line”. The only consistent run he had, he ended up top scorer for us. Clearly a confidence player and it was shot by time he left us.
Playing godden is hindering simmsMy concern with Godden is he distorts the team and doesn’t contribute outside his goals. I think him playing is hindering Simms settling into the team and by proxy Wright as well. I honestly think we’ll be a better team without him and having him as a sticking plaster at the moment is stopping us moving forwards to a new style. I also question his value as Robins mouth on the pitch given recent comments about playing style.
You can’t drop the guy, he’s top scorer and in a good vein of form, but I do think we won’t evolve as a team until he’s injured or loses form and Simms gets a go in that role.
