Umerah seems to score every game!

Josh Umerah had an injury set back pre season in Austria but is now getting back to close to his top form.

Great fight today from the lads! Buzzing to get the winner! Just doesn't get better than beating palace

I'm amazed he's not on the bench for the first team

Slightly surprised RCC can only make the bench for the U23s, that suggests he's gone backwards from where he was?

A very smart footballer, is Mikhail.

You do know he has actually got a goal for the first team?

Should be given a chance in first team! If Hanlan can get a game he should too!

I'd like to see him, when he makes the 1st team, be given the ball for any central free-kick from 25 to 40 yards. He has a sledgehammer shot on him.

Another who should be on our first team bench along with Kennedy

Supposed to be away at Millwall today but I can't find out any info, well where it will be played.
I expect a very depleted U23 team with tomorrow's game in mind.

Josh Umerah will be playing as I spoke to his mum who was on the way there. She sees a lot of their games and was confident that they would beat Millwall.
If only the over-23s could...

We will need the other U23s for Wednesday nights game against Margate.

I think Josh will at least be on the bench tomorrow night

Charlton U23s | Maynard-Brewer; Barnes, Edwards, Carter, Bowry; Dijksteel, Charles-Cook, Lapslie; Ahearne-Grant, Hanlan, Umerah. #cafc

Subs | C Thomas, Zemura, Sarpong-Wiredu, Doughty. #cafc

No Ba but Hanlan and Umerah start.

No Kennedy either despite his great goal form. In the Millwall squad perhaps along with Ba or just injured/suspended/gone home for Christmas/sold.

Gloomy and damp here this afternoon. No triallist from Belgium. Goalkeeping looks yo be interesting. On paper a strong line up at this level.

Simonsen

Wonder if that means Ba will be on the bench at Millwall? (doubt it but who knows....)

Covered End

Sheriff has a good shot.
