2020/21 Ben Godfrey

[Nymzee]

he will be holgate v2 at best he will be keane

What's wrong with two Holgate's?

 

[ArtetaMoney]

Can't say I remember seeing him play, but we need a new CB so hopefully he's decent.

That's good

...I think Godfrey will prove to be our best long-term investment of this window. He provides what none of our other CBs have with real pace, power and ability to recover in that space behind our back four. It’s an attribute we’ve been clearly lacking.

i backed him over the weekend to get in the England Euro squad and by the end of this season I think it will be a matter of ‘who partners Godfrey’.

Think he can also provide cover as a RB and defensive midfielder. Important to have players that can cover a number of positions

Mods, you might want to check the spelling of his name on the front page....

@GrandOldTeam , @Groucho

....like the way he spoke about ‘learning’ from others and how he ‘dies for the cause’. Attitude is so important and this fella talks like the game matters to him.

Thought we'd resigned Tim Cahill for a second. Welcome Ben, hope you have half the attitude!

I was pressing that play button for ages then lol

 

[BlueDraka]

Same pen aswell. He was also at the signing of the Treaty of Versailles if memory serves.

And the American declaration of independence

Hows the nappy and pot noodle supply holding up macca?

Done a little dribble so far mate but not enough to feel the need to change yet. Had a king pot noodle for breakfast so that should get me through until 11am for brunch

 

[Blue83]

Here's to hoping he'll be a more expensive revelation like Nkounkou

They don't need to break that down. Just shoot before they even reach doucoure and they will score.

Pickford...

 

[RomanReigns]

Seems to fit the narrative

young, physical, strong, quick, determined, has prem experience

gives us a few options if we get injuries and will help us rotate the centre halves for cup games

big mick keggers has had to play all 7 games because of injuries to holgate and Mina

 

[Saint Domingo]

We needed the depth. Hopefully with Holgate, Branthwaite, and Gbamin all still to come back from injury we’ll finally have some depth and quality in the holding midfield and centreback area.
