I'm not sure we've seen the best of him. He loves making runs past our forwards and has got a decent shot on him but CP has asked him to play more conservative roles. Several of his few appearances he's been asked to play out of position as well.
Maybe people will disagree but I prefer him over Stephens. Would be my choice to put him alongside Hollands when he's back. Worked well vs Sheff Utd and Wednesday
sort of player that will appreciate being a professional footballer. never stops running and will play anywhere on the pitch for his manager,club and fans. great story for charlton and himself.
Fantastic work rate and attitude , very likeable fella , down to earth sort, got my pic taken with him and Matty Taylor when i won a signed ball at Bromley Addicks meeting earlier in the year , he is great at winning the ball back , people diss him because of his height , but Xavi and Iniesta seem to do alright as does this fella , terrific find, a gamble perhaps but has more than held his own , and looked up to the task.
Well, yet another inspired signing by CP and his staff. The Boss has shown faith in him and he's repaid it by the bucket load. Every time he's been called upon he's delivered, every time. As others have said, his atitude, engine, toughness and technical ability are all excellent. Incidently very similar to Powell during his playing days I reckon. A standout point for me is just how damn happy he is. I mean this guy is on cloud 9 atm and it really shows. To think how far he's come in the last year is amazing tbh and what a year! I bet he can't believe whats happened. He's clearly fallen in love with the club and this has helped stoke the fire in his belly to succeed...and it's wonderful to witness.
As for a new contract, gotta be a dead cert, 100% and well earned.
I'm pretty sure that every league game he has started this year we haven't lost and this include both Sheffield clubs! been extremely impressed with him all season. Great effort, passion, skill and most importantly an all round great player!
anyone know who would be responsible for pinpointing this type of player to us ?? just wondered how it all works out
Bradley came in to help out with work on the pro zone stats or something or other and was then roped into making up the numbers in some practice match of some kind. The rest is history.
You could never question his commitment to the club, but unfortunately I question his ability he has recently come out of non-league football and I just feel some of our other central midfielders offer more in terms of ability e.g. Stephens, Hughes and Russel.

Are you sure SCP hadn't been given the wink and this wasn't all just a cunning plan to give have a look at him without making him nervous?
When I brought a mate who supports Barnsley to our match against the Blades he said that the two players he'd take off us without question were Wiggins and Pritchard. He was impressed by the entire team, both teams in fact, but he thought those two were proper quality. Glad to see Pritch doing well and dispelling the 'all non-league players are garbage' idea that came in after Pardew's signings.

Really pleased to see him back in the team, and think he will get better still next season.
He's a rubbish drummer though.
(Xavi and Iniesta are 5 foot 7 by the way) :-0

An absolute find from the lower leagues and a player that looks like he is willing to listen, learn and do a job.
His performances this season have got a certain element of 'charlton' about them. Not the biggest but huge heart and effort. he can also play a bit.
