Match Thread: Charlton v Shrewsbury | Sat 13 March 2021| 3pm

edited March 2021 in General Charlton
Shrewsbury Town next up at The Valley ....... fresh from a 2-0 victory at Rochdale, where every team seems to win 2-0.

Finally, having broken our home win voodoo, we need to consolidate with another 3 points today - or bust.
What does Bow say? Well, he's been rambling on about Shrews having 3 big lumps at the back. That's it really.

Ryan missing, of course, Gilbey resumed training. Matthews hamstrung, JFC a bit tight. Pratley not even suspended.
Hoping to see Famewo return.



Charlton: Amos, Gunter, Pearce, Famewo, Maatsen, Pratley, Watson, Morgan, Millar, Stockley, Washington.

Subs: Maynard-Brewer, Oshilaja, Jaiyesimi, Aneke, Shinnie, Smith, Schwartz.

  • I anticipate and hope for lots of pace in this team. Washington, Millar, Maatsen and probably Morgan I'd all expect to be involved. Ideally Schwartz too (into feet, beat the defenders etc).
  • I expect it will be Aneke and Washington up top and no other changes
  • Ooo so close in my Preview...

    Forster-Caskey being the absense that didnt give me a fully correct matchday squad :)
  • Well atleast we have a settled starting lineup now. Although odds on Watson gets booked so ban incoming

    Really think we could get this run well and truly going today, and expect another win, probably scrappy in places and tough in others, but a win is a win, and with the added input from Lawrie and Curbs, well should be a good day, wonder what gems will be talked about pre match.
    Looks like a strong line up, plenty of good backup on the bench for a second half push on

  • No Purrington again - even on the bench.
  • I'd have played Smith instead of Pratley, but otherwise you can't really be to upset with that line up. 
  • Bit concerned with centre mid of Pratley and Morgan .. lacking creativity can see this being a very difficult game with this line up 
  • Happy to be proved wrong but looks a 4-4-2 with Pratley and Watson in midfield and I think they just invite too much pressure. 

    Would rather Morgan playing in there with Shinnie or DJ on the right/left depending on where Millar is playing this week. 
  • As I put in my Preview, having Pratley and Watson in the team is either as a 4-4-2 to protect the defence

    Or Pratley is there as a player who can drop back into a five man defence when we need to, meaning that more often than not we'll be playing 3-5-2 so that we match up against Shrewsbury
  • Well with Pratson in the middle me and Bowyer may not be popular with most , I guarantee we don’t lose ... but we need to win ! 
    Happy enough with the team as long as Morgan and Millar go right and left 

    2-0 Charlton

    Charlton 50%
    Draw 35%
    Shrewsbury 15%

    eieieio  



  • Pratley and Watson back together. 

    Bowyer's wet dream. 
    Winners 
  • Our January signings haven't worked out, Stockley aside.

    Bowyer said you can't just play crosses against them because they clear them. So what are we doing? Passing it on the floor with a midfield 2 of Pratley and Watson? Passing it on the floor to... Stockley up front?

  • Bit of a must win week when you consider the other games going on.

    We can only win and worry about those around us afterwards but it feels a weekend of few slip ups

    Although saying that Gillingham are right behind us and are losing so what do I know 😂

    I'm so depressed. I was really looking forward to this game. Now I'm going to have to watch Pratley & Watson in the middle and it's going to be so turgid.
  • Get ready for 90mins of hoofball to Stockley 🙄

    Long as he score the winner, no problem
  • If we lose this game after Bowyer starts with both Pratley and Watson I can see the fan base being apocalyptic.

    Schwartz not had a chance nor really has DJ but it’s always difficult for Jan signings 
  • Again result is more important than the performance imo. Boring 3 points today will do. Like most I would have preferred a more ground based starting lineup but I wont be kicking off about if if we win. COYA
  • good line up .. we should win this and keep up  with our recent decent run (and about time too) ((:>)
