    Blackburn used a 4-2-3-1 system in their last match against Middlesbrough, with Murphy & Etuhu in Central midfield, Nuno Gomes in behind Rhodes at CF, Nunes on the left & Ribeiro on the right.
    They struggled against opponents using quick direct attacking play from midfield and showed a number of weaknesses. Robinson struggled on crosses and Blackburn struggled as a team on set plays. In open play, both full backs, Olsen & Orr, struggled in 1 v 1 situations and Givet at left centre back was vulnerable against passes played down the side, as occured on the first Boro goal. Etuhu & Murphy failed to protect the central defence when Boro attacked quickly through the central areas, leaving Dann & Givet exposed on a number of occasions.

    In attacking play, both full backs got forward to join in the build up quickly, combining with Nunes & Ribeiro, to look for 2 v 1 situations. Nuno Gomes may be difficult to pick-up in the hole behind Rhodes, who operated at the point of the attack.

    There are obviously a number of areas we can take advantage of, providing we get the greater share of possession in central midfield. CP reverted to a standard 4-4-2 at Ipswich, which improved upon the Diamond system of the previous 4 games. It will be interesting to see how he sets the team up for this one and deals with Nuno Gomes if he operates in a deep-lying position again. As WSS says in his excellent preview, a score draw looks on the cards.
  • Rhodes off for simulation in first 5 minutes. Fuller runs amok, wins 2 penalties.

    3-0.

    Off field nonsense will galvanise an already very strong (at this level) Rovers side. Hope I'm wrong but a 3-1 defeat seems likely.
  • a draw would be a major result for us
    can see there being a hatful of goals 2-5 to rovers
  • Blackburn have always been a bit of a "bogey" team for us. Stopped us making an immediate return to the old First division with a 4-3 home defeat in the 50s' on the last game of the season and then later beat us at Wembley 1-0 in the final of the old league cup. My first trip back to The Valley this week after about a year away so looking forward to us breaking the voodoo and collecting 3 points. 1-0 will do me.
  • and then later beat us at Wembley 1-0 in the final of the old league cup.

    it was the 'full members cup' not sure if there was a sponsor at the time

  • 2-1 Charlton Fuller Bwp
  • Yes, you are right. Thanks. Just remember it was a bitterly cold day and we lost in the last minutes. Very poor game and a long, long journey home.
  • A win for us would be a great birthday present for me too!

    This sort of analysis really isn't standard football forum stuff, and I'm reall grateful to @Tutt-Tutt for his contributions.

  • 0-2 I'm afraid...

    2-1 addicks with Fuller on the mark again.....but we need a quick start and put them on the back foot so they are chasing the game....otherwise I fear we could find a reverse score.

    I never knew Gary Neville was a Charlton fan!

    Nice one Tutt Tutt.

    1-3 blackburn. Can't see us getting anything from this game. Obviously hope I'm wrong.
  • Everyone seems to think there will be goals, so I will go for 0-0 as it might suit both teams

    I think we will score, but we seem to concede soft goal(s). 1-2.

    I was there, after all it was the only time we would ever see Charlton at Wembley! I was so pleased Blackburn scored, i could not have faced another 30 minutes of the rubbish both sides served up on that day.

    Il go for 1-1 with fingers crossed tightly
  • I'd be happy with a draw, Blackburn may have lost their last game, but it was their first defeat in the league, and they're 3rd.
