Godden, I think, will end up being our highest scorer. He was injured but now back at full fitness and he is an out and out striker. I have many Cov City mates who are still disappointed he has left them. The dichotomy will be who's best to play alongside him, for me, if he could stay fit it would be Aneke, but perhaps Gus can do the job, I'm not sure TC or DK are correct, the Stockport game may give us a clue to future formations. If NJ can get the strike force right, and get a playmaker in midfield, then, being optimistic, I think we can really push on this season.
Watched Jimmy Bullard tonight on YouTube playing Jason Steele (Brighton goalie). They called out Matty Godden & Matty Cash (Villa) to join them next summer for a two day tournament to find the best golfing footballer
When the penalty was awarded, I was shitting myself that some muppet of ours was going to try and grab the ball and demand to take the penalty. I honestly wouldn't have backed any of ours to have scored that. (In fact I am not even sure I would have backed Alfie May) That was a consumate, class penalty from somebody who has taken pressure penalties before and backs himself to score. Brilliant pen.
I don’t think he has a bad return in the league so far? Far from the worse striker we have signed for league 1
Agree and I think he's a good player but perhaps not got the legs to be as effective outside of scoring. I think part of the issue is that he was billed as a taller, more aerially capable, more hold-up version of May but he's not, really - at least at this age.

If only Mannion had done that for Cannon's goal for Wrexham.
