2023/24 Ben Godfrey

Good luck to the lad. This really is a deal that seems to suit all parties.

Except for Atalanta, who've paid decent money for a crap defender

Needs a club to let him play at centre half in a settled defence for a prolonged period. He never really got that here.

As a club we've got to start creating the best possible platform for players - since Moshiri, there's very few players I think we've got the best out of because we've been a basketcase.

For me he will never be a cb. At least not in a 2. His positioning, concentration and particularly aerial ability just isn't good enough. Can think of 3 or 4 goals scored against us in the last season or 2 where he made a poor attempt to win a header and the opponent scored

Good luck Ben Godfrey. You gave your all but were not good enough ultimately. Happy with the fee.

 

[The binman chronicles]

Goodbye and good luck Ben, we are going to miss you.

 

[terryefc]

Good deal for all parties and I wish him well.

We'll see, I guess. I reckon he'll do ok in Italy.

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Definitely one who can leave with head held high knowing he gave his all
He just sadly wasn’t great at football at this level, great athlete

Imagine he learns to defend in Italy.

 

[Milkman]

We'll see, I guess. I reckon he'll do ok in Italy.

Michael Keane would be seen as the new Costacurta over there

 

[Bedfordblue]

FFS he’s been in Italy all bloody day and not one of you had him on flight tracker……

Good Luck!!

Godfrey’s agent/agency Jamie Moralee/New Era Sports Management also reps Holgate and Keane. If he can help us shift them so we can buy a couple of new young defenders we should offer him a free seat at BMD for life!

 

[Cels]

I like Ben Godfrey and it's good to see him getting a move that benefits all concerned. Best of luck to the lad, I hope this new challenge is a successful one for him.

 

[jimmythenut]

Always likes him. And put in some of his best performances when we needed him towards the end of the season.

Strange move i think though, goes to the one league in Europe you don't need pace as a CB. And that's his biggest strength, good luck to him there.
