BP confirms that Stephen Henderson will be absent on Saturday and @Popey1992 is likely to play. #cafc
BP on @Popey1992: "I thought he was one of our best players against @MillwallFC." #cafc0 -
Well it seems Henderson is not fit, so Popey will start. He'll be chuffed to start against the team he supports and whose books he was once on.0

Like most others, Henderson would have been my choice if fit, but Pope is good back up. Lets hope he does well.0

As much as that shows how catastrophically awful Thuram was, how the hell did Maiga not score there?? We're bloody lucky that the only player on the planet more incompetent that Thuram got hold of itThe Red Robin said:cantersaddick said:
Perhaps loan them both out, Phillips to league two Pope to league one and get a loan in to sit on the bench..Dansk_Red said:
The trouble with loaning him out is we then only have Phillps as back up.Huskaris said:Henderson, Pope doesn't have anywhere near enough confidence yet, I think if he could get a decent stint at a league one team he will have a real chance of coming into the first team though.

This was the game where Yohann Thuram had one of the biggest mares I've seen a Charlton player have over 90 minutes, even though QPR didn't record a single shot on target.The Red Robin said:cantersaddick said:

I'd pick Pope , Henderson has improved from what i thought was a slightly shakey start and is doing well but I've a feeling the Pope is gonna be a special keeper and I want him to get game time as soon as possible with us
personally don't see much in it atm and would like to see Pope inbetween the sticks but totally understand that others feel Henderson should be starting

Pope, an exceptional talent, especially on crosses.3

Henderson0

As we've just got Etheridge in on a short term loan, that suggests Henderson must be out for at least a couple of weeks0

Got to say that I didn't really appreciate Henderson fully til he was gone from the team, against Milwall the normally solid defence seemed more ponderous and not quite the slick operation we normally see. No slight against Pope who I am sure will play tomorrow and I expect will continue to get better and better but on current levels, Henderson is without doubt the better keeper overall.0

Henderson - 1st choice keeper who did nothing to lose his spot in the team.0
-
I think Pope could eventually overtake Henderson. He has good reflexes and shot stopping qualities and will hold balls that Henderson will palm away. It's how soon he improves his kicking and acquires the maturity and confidence Henderson shows. My worry is he seems to suffer from nerves.
Henderson hasn't lost his spot in the team, he is not fit.0 -
This thread will probably pick up more in January when Henderson is fit?0

Whilst Fox-gate rumbles on I'd just like to say that I thought another of our youngsters, Pope, did really well yesterday. I watched the Millwall game with heart in mouth every time he went near the ball but yesterday he seemed to really grow in confidence over the 90 mins and made some solid saves culminating in a brilliant European style punched clearance towards the end of the game to relieve some of the pressure we were under.
I'd still have Henderson back next week if he's fit but it looks as though Pope is heading in the right direction and Henderson can't be complacent.3 -
Hmm not sure I agree, thought he looked a bit shaky at times.0
-
Haha almost! Oh he's got good potential no doubt, I'd like to see him get a full season for a league one team. Maybe when Henderson's back he may go out on loan, now the prodigal son Etheridge has returned.se9addick said:
Absolutely, not saying he's the finished article and he needs to try and hold onto the ball when he saves but just think he deserves praise - almost two clean sheets in a row !Talal said:Hmm not sure I agree, thought he looked a bit shaky at times.

I like the sound of this new bloke, Etherington..
And he can play on the wing if required.1 -
Pope seemed to grow in confidence yesterday -will benefit from a run of games.2

Pope played very well. He just doesn't yet have the "presence" that comes with experience to command his defence. I'm sure he will in time but, for now, Henderson is the more complete keeper and should get his place back.0

He seems a little nervous but his positioning is superb.
The lad just needs to keep playing in order to settle down.
