Charlton (A) Match Thread

Charlton’s defence should be there for the taking. They’re very aggressively trying to beat us to the ball every time. But it’s working, because we don’t have an ounce of aggression in us. Is Monga and Fatawu were switched on to that, we could get some joy down those wings. But everything is being played back to goal, rather than using Charltons aggression against them, we’re allowing them to bully us off the ball. 
 

Monga and Fatawu are being doubled up on, that's happening because there is zero threat or pace through the middle

We have other options. He’s once again chosen to go into a football match with 2 people that can’t play football.

Skipp’s like that one lad who turns up to five a side, but can’t actually play. 

Sounds like me when I deceided to play hockey for a few months after school at Rawlins...  (I sucked, but it was something to do  )

Goal kick routine. keeper to Choudhury, Choudury to centre half, centre half to keeper, rinse and repeat.

 

Absolutely zero attacking threat.  Without some new players this will be a very long season.

The other option is winks, who everyone moans about being played as well 😂

[Arkie Bennett]

We are now merely an average Championship team, an also-ran.

This is spot on, they know they are the danger, they are almost vacating the middle of the park and saying go on win it with skipp, soumare, page and ayew...

Literally we're going to get relegated aren't we

[WigstonWanderer]

Well that’s was shite.

 

We have so little creativity, and of the flair players we have, Monga isn’t being used and Abdul’s not having his best game.

 

Sick of seeing Choudhury just turn back every time he gets it.

Just shows how many of these were being carried by competent players 

[Cameron Davidson]

Ok serious question, do I watch the second half or go shopping with the wife?

Ricardo… Choudhury, the team is set up wrong once again. Overcomplicating everything, we are so easy to play against. 

[ozvaldo]

Fatawu’s trying to be a hero. 
 

Monga needs the ball more.  
 

It’s so shit. 

[Kp1984]

How depressing that we are this bad

Yep. Everything screams of relegation. 

[Leicestermark12]

I know the players are a bit crap but do we even have game plan? Lots of possession yet Charlton look so much more ruthless. Abysmal stuff so far

[Tuna]

Any subs?

[TheFiveTime]

Ricardo on Skipp off. Choudary moves into midfield with soumare

Ricardo just back from injury and choudhury who also can’t pass a ball?

[beepee1984]

No Changes???

[HankMarvin]

Wouldn’t matter who the striker is

Hopefully Ricardo comes on but I think even faes would do a much much better job than soumare and skipp in midfield. He can carry the ball and has much more presence even though he's an idiot.

Useless, I don't know what the manager has been working on.  When Fatawu got the ball in the after Monga foul, there was so much space for a player to run into and for him to pass but everyone stood back.

 

Crap players and crap manager.  Maybe if the cbs keep passing slowly down the middle we might give them even more chances.  Hamza is make some passes forwards but he is doing them so deep, Fatawu is crowded at the halfway line with his back to goal.

 

Soumare made one driving run then slows down under no pressure and rolls the ball to slow it down further, passes to Monga once he was closed down and fouled.  8/11 of our first team need to get on the Nintendo brain trainer not the pitch.

Spot on. Typical of our slow dull predictable play. If Soumare releases that ball 5 seconds earlier with a decent pass for Monga to run onto we might have created something. And Soumare hasn't even been the worst player for us.
