Harriott will be a weapon in League One. The kind of player I believe could make the step up if he was an integral part of a promotion winning (keep dreaming) team.
100% this is Harriott s level, playing with better players alongside side him this season could be the making of him as a Charlton player
That miss away to Fulham is nothing to do with what level you are at our who's playing alongside you, and moments like that sum up for me why he won't ever be a quality player

For me it's moments like when he did a Cryuff turn, fell over and immediately went off injured that highlighted why he'll never be a quality player

He'll be inconsistent, like most wingers, and he'll miss chances. But he'll also produce moments of good quality and he'll try and stretch defences. Colchester fans loved him at this level, perhaps we will get to see that this season.
CH will have a decent football career and I would expect it to be at Championship level personally. Lots of skill and pace but still young and learning consistency. Seems likely his career will be away from here according to comments in this thread which I personally think is sad.
I think Callum could do with a lot of hours of mindblowingly boring practice at shooting, and quicker decision making. He has plenty of skill and touch, but some areas of his game are not second nature to him as they should be, and maybe could be with the extra work. One advantage regarding Callum is the 'Leaburn' factor. By that I mean he may have limitations, but defences don't like the graft they have to put in to deal with him. With a player like Danny Green for example he was never enough of a pain in the arse as he should've been. Ricky Holmes looks to have that pain in the arse quality too. (yeah I know which thread this should also be on!)

I'm convinced that Harriott could be a very decent Championship winger in the right environment, probably in a team that plays more direct football than we have in recent years.
Consistency is an obvious issue for Harriott, but it is for all wingers outside the top level. In my opinion, you're allowed to lose the ball plenty trying things in forward positions as long as over the 90mins you either cut in and create enough chances or swing in enough good crosses.
Edit: Adding a rumour to make this relevant... I feel like he wants to leave and will do in the next couple of weeks.
Gone 1pm no announcement. Does that mean Pearce can't play tomorrow? Not a problem if Tex is over his "knock" but a big ask for Konsa to debut 1st match with our up and down pre-season. Does anyone know if Kashi went under the knife? 4 months seems a very specific recovery period for someone who has already been out for months with same injury.

I agree. If he stays then according to most I'm to expect him to rip this league to shreds. Won't hold my breath.

I'm pretty sure today is Thursday! no game tomorrow!

Actually another day between today and Saturday...
Pearce deal agreed just posted by pete o rourke on twitter...
This is a brilliant signing at league 1 level.
Along with Ajose, Novak, and Rudd - thats right up in calibre (at the time) with the likes of Stephens, Hollands, Taylor, Morrison and Hamer signing. Crofts is our Hughsey equivalent.
EDIT Wigan fans are furious. The league 1 champions calling him their best defender by a mile.
