If Vik could finish like Godden he’d have got 40 last season.

We had this with GKs after Oggy/Hedman/Kirkland, and arguably strikers after Dublin and Keane. Silly high standards. Whoever comes in at CM is on a hiding to nothing as well.

If we don't go up I reckon we'll be able to watch our new CM run rings around the fat Sheffield Utd version of Hamer next season.

That's already happened with the abuse of Eccles. Is that two goals from Eccles corners in the last two matches now?

Godden was pivotal to our rise and will always be synonymous with that. His goal scoring record is also massively under appreciated too. He was the main man in our dominating L1 season.

However, we’ve changed styles, formations and tactics several times since then, and unfortunately for Godden none of those changes have been a perfect fit for him. Naturally we’ve stepped up several levels quality wise too. He’s also seen other players become the ‘main man’ since he was.

He can still offer something to the team, but it can’t be from the start in this system. Coming on against tiring and stretched defenders might become his thing. Whether he’s happy with that will be up to him.

If he just had a bit more passing range he’d be fine long term. Hope he spends his summer practicing pinging balls across the Memorial Park TBH, love having a proper City lad in the side.

Haaland has the athleticism and physique that even if he doesn't score he can bully and beat up the defence.

Can you pass a message on asking him to shave that ridiculous beard?
My sons got one, not saying he'd shave his off if Josh did but it's worth a go.
No one wants their offspring walking round looking like Shaggy from Scooby do.

There are matches when he hardly touches the ball despite Man City having most of the possession. But then he ends up scoring a couple of goals. Pretty sure I remember one match he scored in but had only nine touches.

Godden does work tirelessly and anyone who watches him play (properly) cannot deny that.

It’s all about the deliveries, as good as COH and Palmer were today, there were times we pondered on the ball in the final third and let Oxford defend with 10 men behind the ball. Allen comes on and we’re direct and caught Oxford out. The finish for Godden 2nd was top drawer but as you say, for his first goal it was the first pass to a striker in the box where they had space to shoot.

Disagree. We need better than either him or Sheaf from a forward passing POV. Neither is particularly comfortable switching the ball or playing balls for the strikers to run into from deep. They’re both good players with many good features but we’re missing something from the side overall.

In what way is he better? I just don't see it. He is faster than Godden of course, but he's not very fast, and Godden's movement is much better. I also think Godden's control is better. And of course Godden's goalscoring is vastly superior and that is the most important thing.
Click to expand...
He's very quick once he gets to top speed, but his acceleration isn't particularly quick.

We need a midfielder that is a genuine 8

An upgrade on Allen, who does a bit of both

Would love to hear the wording, one of your fans has got a beard like yours and looks a dick, shave yours off and do the pair of you a favour!
