    Not sure why Mesik got dropped considering Edwards' performance last time, but the rest you can't argue with.

    It's probably that he's a victim of Jones being done with McNamara as he can cover right-back too, but I don't agree with it

    Skipp,Mcnamara and Nkeng the spare men out on the pitch atm
    Didn't realise McNamara had missed out. Glad Nkeng is close, might get on the bench one day.

    4-2-3-1 with JRC and Coventry in the two. Grant and Campbell out wide?

    No Mesik is a weird one, but don't dislike the team. Prob would've given Knibbs a go over Carey. Kelman will score today

    OMG - JRC is starting - every time he starts we lose - the guy is a donkey - he moves in slow motion and points to his team to pick players up - normally his player . Worse player I have seen for Charlton in the last 20 years . I am beginning to lose faith in Jones

    Very bold starting Edwards and JRC given their lack of game time. Would have started Mesik personally. 

    Bit worrying we have no DCM on bench if something happens to Cov. If Skipp isn’t injured, that’s another bold call from NJ 
    Bindon? 
    Yup would be Bindon to CDM if needed

    Would've started Mesik over Edwards and I'm struggling to see where the goals are gonna come from but nice to see changes being made. Come on you redsssss

    Surprised to see JRC starting when the issue has been our Midfield getting played through with ease

    Desperate stuff from NJ. Two midfielders who have not played a full game since God knows when and a left back who played like a carthorse in his only game this season.
    If we lose I don't know where NJ goes from here

    We're a much better team without Skipp

    Good, back 4 I wanted, I thought maybe Alli for Grant and he wouldn't start Carey and Rankin-Costello, and I'm surprised Edwards is in over Mesík, but I'm pretty happy overall with the lineup

    We'll see, second half Vs Watford our midfield was ran through like Bonnie Blue when he came off

    Good that Edwards hasn't picked up another knock having missed the last few games, even though he was reported to be seen doing running drills against Burnley (?) - Hopefully begin to see more and more of an improvement on that Bristol City return from him, as he can play better, and is clearly going to need minutes to build up the fitness and sharpness.
    If he struggles again, might be worth trying to achieve that though from the bench, its not like we're short on left sides options this season thank god

    Moaned at if he doesn't make changes, moaned at if he does make changes. He literally can't win with some people.

    At least he's trying something different. Let's support the manager and players shall we

    I reckon we'll play Chalobah, March and Godden for the two home games after Boro. Then 2 weeks international break.
