Londoner Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 Two chances and two classy finishes, first one no means an open goal, still needed to be finished....as for the second a tidy finish. I was expecting him to be given a rest today. Well done Jimmy, 12 goals this season and now hopefully confidence back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pezo Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 I'm really pleased for him - he has looked like losing confidence over the last couple of months and I think this will be a big boost for him. 12 goals in this league at the end of the season for any striker is average to pretty good.

As a general rule it's said it can take a season or so for players to adapt to the English game, so more to come from him next year maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might just be me...but was he watching the line more today for the ball though...may well have been offside in previous weeks. Might be reading far to much in to it, but a bit of coaching?

Padlad Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 He was so happy especially for his second, would liked him to have an extra 10 mintues to get a hattrick, but Agard and WIbls did well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be reading far to much in to it, but a bit of coaching? Literally have just been having this convo on the way back in the car mate. He looked like he was watching the line a lot more and the time of his runs were so much better. I honestly believe LJ would have done a bit of work with him for sure.

Shtanley Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 I've always kept faith. What a great return for his first season in this league. He can still catch gray;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samo II Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 12 goals in 34 appearances for us; taking into account the lad has moved from another country, has limited language skills and has played under two different gaffers, ignoring the interim period. £2 million spent on a striker at this level isn't really top echelon money, so I think we've got excellent value.

Lanterne Rouge Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 All these boys really are exactly what you want to see - they ******* care as much as we do!

Admin Ian M Posted February 20, 2016 Admin Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 Thought Kodj's second was fairly similar to Pitman's composed finish last week in passing it just inside the far post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeAman08 Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 I said in the match day thread that he shouldn't sit. Sure he's looked a bit off but he terrorized MK at home without end product and sounds like he did again today. He's our best threat and he needs to play. I'm happy he got two today. Really needed them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, despite everything they've always looked united and committed, something that couldn't be levelled at previous City teams in similar situations. You can see why LJ said that he's reluctant to bring in more loanees and risk disrupting that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe jordans teeth Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 It's good to see for the second week in a row we are still attacking late on rather than sitting back,what a difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could argue the lack of defensive need in the LM position and a competent solid LB in Golborne has given him freedom and confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 I've been a supporter of Kodjia all season. Of course he'll have off days. He now 7th top league scorer in the Championship, pretty impressive for a struggling side who haven't scored many overall. For those saying rest him in over the last week, I suggested that his 'encounter' with the stray elbows and cynical play of McFadzean at Ashton Gate might be the incentive for him today. Not saying that was the reason, and to be honest, when I saw on Twitbook that he'd got a yellow card after 10 minutes, I worried he may have put himself at risk. From reading the various Twitbook posts, it looks like McFadzean was (again) very lucky to stay on the pitch. Really pleased for Jimmy Dangers. I did say play him today, rest him v Brighton......but I suspect he will start now. Haven't seen the goals yet (teasing myself), but it seems they were both good finishes. For those Twitbook followers, perhaps MKD's idea to put a barn door in place of the goal was a bad idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Dawe Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 11 goals, same as Jordan Rhodes. The four sides below us would love to have him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamC Posted February 20, 2016 Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 Amazed LJ took him off, he was on for a hat trick and having had to use a sub at HT thought it was an unnecessary gamble with 25 minutes to go. Delighted for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. The management are clearly working with him to improve his performances. May also be calming him down and not so anxious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
