Norwich defender Godfrey: I'm not here to idolise opposition strikers

Norwich City defender Ben Godfrey says he won't be stuck in awe of opposition strikers in the Premier League.

The talented 20-year-old was linked with Tottenham and Manchester United this past summer.

And he's eager to prove he can match it amongst the Premier League's best.

Speaking after Friday's loss to Liverpool, Godfrey said: "I'm not a tourist, you know what I mean?

"I'm not going to come here and take pictures and idolise all those people out there.

"I've got a job to do at the end of the day so I've come here to try and get three points."
