Charlton look nothing great but still look better than us . They attack with more purpose and should be one up

Their defence are really roughing up our front 2.
Were lacking in everything. Passes are not accurate, runs are a bit late, etc etc
I'd take 0-0 all day long

Decision making when countering is god awful. Had a few promising breaks that have gone nowhere because of some shocking passes or runs.

Forde looks useful but Sotiriou a passenger (watch him score now and Sid quote me on this
)
Two sides that look like they'd rather be at home on the booze, very poor advert for L1 football.
Blackett-Taylor is the danger, he keeps getting down to the line, sooner or later one of the cutbacks will find May

It took us 43 minutes to get in our first shot . Charlton only need to score one and it’s game over

Poor half - better organised defence but not creating anything going forward - Soteriou need to come off.

Blackett-Taylor is the danger,
Hunt or James at right-back?

Forde is fine but he’s not as good as Agyei.

Forde can beat a man and get himself around the pitch to chase down loose balls or aimless punts. Ruel is only going to be useful if/when there's a chance that needs burying, his contribution outside of the box is normally minimal.
Charlton are there to be beaten but we don't look very capable of it.

James but both look equally shaky and lacking in pace for this level
