    No sign here that we have changed tactics from last season. Pass around at back then big boot up front hoping it will stick.
      That'll bring in the punters.

    Shocking play from Charlton. Lucky Kaikai fluffed it.

    What were you expecting? Possession football?
    Why change what worked?

    It wasn't really how we played post Crawley.

    Mitchell brothers and Gillesphey Cb’s, Asiimwe and Bennett WB’s, Coventry, Anderson and Carey in midfield with Kanu and Tanto up top. Wait and see if Kanu and Carey play off Tanto like the previous line up

    Tc looked absolutely lost out there 
    He did towards the end of the season. Yes, he won the fk at Wembley but last half a dozen games of the season he seemed uninterested. 


    TC form dipped after Nathan went OTT in his praise after the 3 excellent games Tyreece had where he also scored a couple of goals. 
    I said at the time, unless NJ is trying to sell him why put pressure on the lad by saying he's as good or was it better than the premier players at Southampton he worked with.

    Campbell never stopped trying.
    I think he was just found out.

    Oh Kanu was so unlucky not to score there... Great ball in behind from Gillesphey, but DK's effort goes narrowly wide of the far post.

    So close to a goal from Kanu, great run and well picked out by the Wembley hero but Kanu couldn’t quite hit the target

    Chance for Kanu to make it 0-2, but shoots wide from a tight angle

    Olaofe advances with the ball down the right, feeds Asiimwe to the right of him, but the latter's cross goes out for a Goal Kick

    Already looks like the fresh legs will be an advantage here

    Lovely movement from Anderson on the ball, to start another attack from just inside our half.

    More nice build up, ends with Carey firing over from the edge of the area

    I don’t think it has to be one or the other.

    TC will offer something this season, he can score and create with either foot and works hard, but as before he’ll have games that he struggles to get into or what he tries doesn’t come off.

    If he’s starts performing to his best every game we’ll struggle to keep him.

    Great control by Tanto to bring the ball down and find Carey who fires over

    Can we play 60/30 every league game with 10 subs 😁

    Think we may need a second to make sure, can see this lot getting a fluky goal if we don't keep it tight up top...

    Been impressed with how happy to do the dirty work Carey has been in pre season

    Two crap crosses from Asimwe

    Asiimwe getting lots of space and attacking well but his final ball has been poor, sort of thing a decent loan should fix though
