Ha both with time on hands and a hat trick bagged.
Missed one in the first half too. Strikers must score every chance they get or they are rubbish
As I said earlier, I was really impressed with his link up play. He's not just a poacher although all three goals were in or near the six yard box and first time finishes. That's good play and even better movement.
And he's under contract.
The Paint Pot Trophy games might actually be worth watching next season if they play this side.
PS. I'm impressed by Bakrin too. Maybe not ready now but a physical presence and can play it on the ground too.

Daniel Kanu is the hat-trick hero at The Valley as Anthony Hayes' young Addicks cruise to victory against the Bluebirds.
Bravo - what marvellous entertainment from our young lads ! They absolutely tortured Cardiff in the second half with their passing and movement (a concept which, all too often, appears alien to the first team). Anderson completely controlled the game in midfield, ably supported by Williams and Agyemang, whilst Kanu's movement and football brain are first class. I also really like the look of the very young goalie. Good performances all over the pitch and Leaburn's goal at the end was the cherry on the top.
An excellent performance from a very young side, especially when the Under 23 squad is without a raft of players who are either injured or out on loan - e.g. Tyreece Campbell, Elerewe, Henry, Vennings, Clayden, Ghandour, Gavin, Aouachria and Ness.
I hope this Kanu lad is on a proper contract, and it’s got some length to it - 39 goals in a season will have the vultures circling….
Signed a deal to 2024. Which if we're still in league one no doubt means we will either sell him next summer or watch him go on a free (+ whatever nominal fee we get for coaching him) in 2024

Anderson looks superb.
Agyemang looks strong and skillfull.
Mitchell and Assimbwe very decent prospects and Kone awesome.
Think he done well today
Big man with the final goal.
