61% possession in crewe's favour - poor, especially at home1

Should be used to disappointment but never do. Crewe deserved to win. We made them look so good. Just see the game out. 3 very tough games now. Not convinced we will do it but this is Charlton. 50 years of supporting them2

I’d get rid of a lot of our players then if that makes us better than the shit served up tonightForeverAddickted said:
So did we last Tuesday... You dont sign players after seeing them play one gameJayajosh said:

Shinnie got an equaliser against Swindon and Purrington a meaningless 5th against Wimbledon. Not sure how many we’ve conceded, last season it was a jokeForeverAddickted said:

That goal for Crewe tonight was the third time its happened to us1 -
I have been saying we need a plan B for when 4-3-3 isn't working and been criticised for it.
Tonight was evidence that we can have a plan b, but need to implement it sooner.2 -

Teams were fitter and better than us so there was always an increased chance of that happening0 -
That's a real sickener0

We wanted to rely on Innis to make 3 big headers in a row and just have a breather knowing he was on. If the back line stayed tight, they would have got the 2nd ball.
Frustrating and lack of leadership from our apparent leaders.1 -

Possibly, think its more of a mentality thing. So frustratingForeverAddickted said:

That was coming, just like the first goal. I’ve never known a football club to be so predictable. We were shit.
Please start Chuks over Stockley next game. We need to start trying to play instead of lumping it and then trying and failing to pick up second balls. Crewe played all the football. It’s embarrassing.22 -
Sickening actually.0

Probably is this season what with the overall home formcafcsinger said:

We've had too many player changes from last season for it to be a knock on effect though

- Quite honestly if we sneaked into the play offs it would be a waste of a couple of weeks which is sorely needed to re assemble a squad capable of going up and staying there.We were totally out played tonight,almost from start to finish.
- Why does Aneke only play for such short periods,surely he could play 60 minutes every now and then.

Been saying we need at least 75 points. Need to win all 3 as I dont think 74 will be enough.1
-
My biggest worry is how little youth/talent we have that you can see making the step up to championship football.We are in such a horrible position right now.0

Is that you Lee? FFS16 -
He hasn't been injured for ages.ForeverAddickted said:
Washington and Maatsen have been playing ahead of him because they can play widesupaclive said:Why has Chuks been marginalised. Maatsen starting in front of him or Washington just is head scratching.
In a 4-3-3 formation, its a choice between Aneke or Stockley, the former has been injured so its not been a difficult choice for Adkins as he's wanted to manage Chuks back into the team, we all know how he can breakdown so easily.
He came on today playing wide!
Sorry but he's our best goal threat.1 -

What a difference a week makes. Hopefully we will all feel very differently next Tuesday but it's probably going to be too much to ask unfortunately.

I'm fucked off with having so many players who need nursing through a season. From now on, for christ's sake, let's bring players in who can play week in week out without continually breaking down.19

Playoffs looking unlikely now. That's the 1st time I have said that ! I just can see us beating Lincoln or hull and even accrington is looking unlikely after that performance tonight. Stockley looks knackered and I feel sorry for him it must be terrible having balls lumped up to you and nobody supports around him. I would start chucks and washington at the weekend and also drop JFC for shinnie0
-
On paper our squad didn't look too bad but on the pitch they just don't turn up.5

Charlton's midfield was being overrun for large portions of the game, not sure if the players are fit enough to come on earlier but the midfield should have been addressed. Anneke surely would have managed longer.The reliance on the long ball to Stockley appears pointless if none of his knock downs are picked up and the players are miles away from him. He is not one for pressing either. Two up front would have been better.Possession and passing was terrible for the majority of the game.Maatsen lacked energy and was shaping up to be sent off by a card waving ref, Kettle. Typically, as with nearly every game, I have seen with Kettle referring, he stuffs Charlton up by allowing 5+ minutes that enabled Crewe the time to equalise. Not that's the reason why Charlton did not win the game. Crewe passed the ball well but if this Charlton team can't manage to beat a 15th placed Crewe team with nothing left to play for are they good enough to go up ?3

We cant get 75-pts nowgolfaddick said:Been saying we need at least 75 points. Need to win all 3 as I dont think 74 will be enough.
Portsmouth and Oxford will have to win their last two games to achieve 75-pts and 74-pts respectfully
We can either finish on 67-pts | 68-pts | 69-pts | 70-pts | 71-pts | 72-pts | 73-pts | 76-pts

Not a great fan of the 4-3-3. Personally prefer Chuks to Stockley too, but also think they could be a handful together. Millar was our best player so slightly strange to sub him off0
-
Not sure if anyone else noticed but that Tom Lowery looks like a proper player. He’s only 5’6” but he really reminded me of Cullen - didn’t stop running and had real quality in possession.I for one can’t wait to gut this squad and go again with a proper budget and fans in the stadium.1

He only came back a week ago, Plymouth was his first game since the Doncaster outing when he got injuredsupaclive said:

He played wide at times because when Aneke came on we went from 4-3-3 to 3-5-2 so had two up top so meant the Striker didnt have to sit as centrally as Stockley does what with not having two wingers1 -
Watson played like a 46 year old who still doesn't want to retire, as he still wants to live in Beckenham on an interest only mortgage!
Famewo looked very good and solid on the left hand side. Showed strength and poise. Pearcy has gone into Pearcy mode again, so I expect a change here.2
