2020/21 Ben Godfrey

[Jim Hopper]

Can he play rb?

He played there for a couple of games for us. Came on against Liverpool and played there and started there against Southampton where he didn’t have the best of games, that said he didn’t have much protection and that game nobody had a great game.

Would lIke to see him at rb with Digne left, Keane and Mina centre. Think that could be our strongest back 4 atm

....I have no idea why folk want to play our most effective CB at full back.

Feel like a broken record here, but it’s a matter of Godfrey and AN Other as CBs.

This is why we need rep.

It's because Mina and Keane have done very well together. Which one do you drop?

Because we don't have a decent right back. Godfrey can play anywhere across the back 4. Also we lose presence in the air when we lose Keane or Mina. No coincidence that we conceded from a set piece last night when Mina wasn't there. I agree that when we have more players in, especially a new right back, Godfrey can play centre half.

Know where you're coming from Eggs, but we've got more of a problem at RB - Coleman is done and mason doesn't look right there.

Yezza and Mick are fine in the middle so put the god at RB - problem solved.

Wouldnt mind 11 with his hunger.

I agree Eggs Godfrey's pace allows the back four to push five yards further forward as he can recover in behind. This then squeezes the midfield closer to DCL giving him more support.
Putting him at RB you lose his ability to stop any balls in behind.

 

[Thomasc]

He’s going to be “Lilian Thuram” levels of good.

Why not just say Godfrey and Mina Eggs...

It's because Mina and Keane have done very well together. Which one do you drop?

Keane of course lol

I think Keane has improved massively but Mina probably has a higher ceiling when he's not doing strange stuff.
At this moment in time I think the best pairing is Godfrey/Mina.

Really hope he goes through that Robertson in the derby

Didn't get to watch the match...but that was my favourite part of the highlights apart from the James daisy-cutter.
