Time to Play Naby Up Front?

Mentioned on here numerous times in the Season.

Lee has said he’s the best finisher at the club, Hemed can’t hit a barn door, and we struggle to score more than one goal in a game.

Would cause havoc in the oppositions penalty area, one last role of the dice Lee....

    If he can learn to stay onside when he plays up front then sure

    I think his legs have gone.

    Probably will happen in injury time after he's unsuccessfully been thrown on to protect the lead.

    Let him take the free kicks

    Absolutely not, Davison and even Hemed before we resort to desperate measures. Last knocking if you want to go route one like we did at QPR other than that it's a big fat NO from me 😉.

    We need someone who can hold the ball, Hemeds the best out of a bad bunch to do that, but he cant last more than half hour.

    Thought Aneke did a far better job of holding the ball up the other day than Hemed. 
    Aneke can also keep the ball better, bloke is a battering ram

    Hemed is decent at controlling it and playing a pass provided he's not crowded out

    This. He curls in a beauty against Wimbledon and I don't recall him taking another one. We know how good his crossing can be

    I bought into the ‘hype’ if you can ever get Charlton players hyped up, when we signed him, it just hasn’t worked out for him , zero goals, and I can’t remember any assists either, it’s looks like one season too many at this level, has a moody determined look about him, if Simon church was nicknamed sponge foot, goodness know what foot hemed Will be nicknamed, he’s got to offer more in my opinion to warrant being in the team.

    No.

    By all means stick Naby up front for set pieces and the last desperate 5 minutes as an extra striker to chase a game.

    But start him up there? No, he hasn't got a clue about movement, creating space in the box, timing and anticipation off the ball.
    It's just not his game. And it shows.

    Let’s allow Naby’s largely awful 5 years at the club to pass gracefully from the bench

    Why not, He can't do any worse than Hemed
  • MattFMattF
    It would certainly throw off any opposition preparation for how we set up to play at least

    We need a bit of creative thinking rather than doing the same old stuff that ain’t worked!

    Not saying this would 100% work, but we are so bleeding predictable, (sorry gotta get it out of my system).

    Do you not recall his sublime stroll into the box vs Hull? ;)

    No.

    Definitely not. If we rolling the dice, I'd rather see young Davidson entering the fray.
  • jimmymelrosejimmymelrose
    I thought Ben Amos was taking some good shots in training.
  • Chris_from_SidcupChris_from_Sidcup
    His control and finish at QPR suggests it might work, but if we're seriously considering this then it's a desperate time.
  • MuttleyCAFCMuttleyCAFC
    Sarr should only play up front in the last 10 if we are chasing a result and not looking a threat.

    Objection your honour , it’s close because everyone is pony not because we’ve all become Brazil 1970
  • EveshamAddickEveshamAddick
    Play him at the back from the start and he can go up for corners. No point bringing him on for the last 5 and sticking him up top as this kind of thing never ever comes off for us.
  • BigRedEvilBigRedEvil
    Today could be Nabys last appearance at The Valley :-(
  • LeuthLeuth
    Devil's advocate: Sarr has only ever played up front in panic-stations scenarios, when this season at least we've generally proved useless at them (except for that one time against QPR, when Sarr scored, or that one time against WBA, when Sarr won a penalty, or last season against Peterborough, when Sarr set up Grant etc etc) - why not a full game? We know he has a good touch, strength, flair, aerial presence and can finish. As has been said, he may not have the natural movement of a striker, but there's certainly an instinct there.

    I still want to see Chuks and Hemed together though - Bowyer seems reluctant to try it
