ATALANTA FANS

“FREE GODFREY DIO BASTARDO”

“Scandalous to have given away Godfrey with the team so short-staffed and without even giving him a chance.”

“Yes Godfrey should stay”

“the Godfrey case, not even put on the field, seems absurd to me”

“He played too little”

“One game not enough to see him “

“Jesus give him more than 1 ame in over a year. Hes sat on the bench all season with zero game time. “

“Gasperini forced to deploy a defense not suited to this level, not his fault though. Worst market in years – bad decisions like Godfrey”

“Godfrey cost as much as they were asking for Gudmundsson, you’re driving me crazy”

IPSWICH FANS

“Godfrey was a disaster”

“Can we basically not get any ex Norwich players ever again please? Always a shambles”

“Never thought id agree with norwich fans but Godfrey is shocking”

“Ben Godfrey is not very good at football”

“unfit, bad attitude… What did people expect from an ex scummer!”

“he was nowhere near fit enough”

“Hadn’t played all season, was nowhere near the required standard fitness or quality wise”

“Fair to say Ben Godfrey was a pointless signing”

“The signing made sense initially, we thought Axel would be out for much longer.
But christ it was obvious from.his first game that he weren’t adding much to us”

“Thankfully, McKenna was as angry with that Godfrey performance against Spurs as the rest of us.”

“The guy is a fraud ! Another awful signing by us to add to a few last season”

“way off the standard”

” Less said the better.”

“A really poor signing”

“Waste of space”

“Godfrey always looks so stiff. Not good enough at Right back, not agile at all”

“Godfrey arguably a downgrade on harry Clarke”

“Godfrey’s 1v1 defending wasn’t good enough but he’s not a full back.”

EVERTON FANS

“Great deal getting 12m for him.”

“surely he’s finished as a top division footballer.”

“Ben Godfrey is arguably at his ‘peak’. Just a shame that peak is League One level.”

“Terrible player”

“Godfrey cost 20 million and people were raving about it, but he was very poor value for money and nowhere near Tarkowski’s quality”

“Godfrey was always on the verge of the first team but failed to stake a regular place in the side to be considered for a new contract”

“He’s dog water unless it’s last ditch closing down stuff, which usually means he was out of position to begin with.”

“Godfrey would do a better impression of Kyle Walker than Kyle Walker these days.
Will always maintain a string of academy and club coaches severely limited Godfrey’s career by not telling him he is a limited but blisteringly fast full back, and teach him a bit of football so he could at least gain territory going forward. Instead they all opted to have him as a too short centre back in low block back 4s where his speed was unused, unable to jump and unable to mark a man. Bless him.”

“He was an athlete who couldn’t defend. I’ve never seen a professional footballer be so bad at judging the flight of a ball.”

“His potential was just him being physically gifted. He always made dumb mistakes but was able to recover because he was damn fast but thats about it”

“He’s not good on the ball either, in terms of passing. Would suit some teams but in a team that either sits deep or thrives in possession he is a liability.”

“Godfrey was fine at full back until he wasn’t”

“Was decent enough player for first few years and seemingly lost all that ability overnight”

“Covid did Godfrey in, he was never the same player after he caught it. He`s been open and honest about it. Said when he came back, it felt like he was breathing in razor blades when he did any type of running.”

“Long Covid and a leg break have made him a shell of the player he was. Never a great footballer but once a fantastic athlete. Sadly he has lost half a yard and he no longer has that aggression that made him a fans fave.”

“Feel like that first season no one could dribble past him and then he got injured a bunch/ Covid and never was was the same”

“Such a shame as he had so much potential.”

“He was a very decent prospect at one stage”

“Stick him in a Championship team that plays 3 centre halves as a right wing back and I think you’ll find he’ll suddenly look like a decent player”

“I  have a negative impression of Mason Holgate  because he was crap, but that’s what I thought. Godfrey, on the other hand, although similarly rubbish, I thought seemed a very pleasant chap”

NORWICH FANS

“Oh dear Godfrey wrong move it’s a falling ship at Sheff U”

“He’s come so far”

“He was vastly overrated”

“To be honest I was happy to see the back of him”

“not even close to a prem defender much like aarons and lewis.”

“Think he’s just another good example of Farke getting the most out of players”

“I always liked him for us and think he’s a good player”

“I’d have him back 100%.”

“Would love Godfrey back”

“I’d love him, already proved he can kick ass in this division”

“Anyone who says they wouldnt want him back is lying to themselves”

“Our Farke team was built on young upcomers and passing in the deck
Godfrey was quite pivotal to that”

“His recovery pace as well was so impressive, whilst his defending always needed improving but with his pace and passing ability I thought he’d really kick on”

“still think his best position could be CDM”

“All day long as a CDM”

“back when we signed him  he was a DM. He’s never looked like CB or RB.”
