I’m not sure Manny is good enough going forward or dynamic enough for a wing back role. Perfectly fine back up but I suspect we are looking to sign someone in that position. I would even have Assiimwe as first choice currently and I think DH thinks the same.
After last nights performance Asiimwe may well have pushed himself ahead of Egbo. Be interesting to see the line-up on Saturday. Would assume most of the players Holden wants to start against Orient will get at least 60-70 minutes in that game.
The funny thing is, Sean Clare would have been really good in this new formation.
He played the odd game at RWB for us and was ok. Could play out from the back, drive forward with the ball but he’s not a good crosser of the ball or a natural defender.

Hope thats not the case, but i thought he looked decent last year, and can imagine he may be pretty pissef off not to be deemed good enough to face newport in a micky mouse competition
Call me a cynic but it sounds like a strained hissie-fit to me. Dean clearly doesn’t rate/line him which I find surprising but he’s soon to be a member of the Chuks club (never to be seen again in a Charlton strip).

You're a cynic.
I agree. I found it no surprise he dropped out of the squad with a niggle. Boy we could have done with him playing ahead of Chin though.
I think Terry said he was holding his groin, carried on, and then went down a few minutes later. Charlie Methven’s overhaul of the “performance” dept. can’t come quick enough.

That's shit if so it's bloody painful to twist and turn as a full back needs to with a pulled groin, let alone whip in crosses.

that would be no excuse for downing tools tho even without a "no dickheads" policy if ME's grumpy about where Holden ranks him, the only way to get back in the 18 and then the first XI is to turn up and show up and work your cobblers off in mickey mouse games - he would only have needed to look alright to have shone amongst last night's cavalcade of crap
Seeing as Asiimwe was out with a knock, there's no way he's faking the injury as now Chin is out he'd be looking at starting on Saturday if they were both still out

Would do him out of "shop window" chance so would bet it's genuine.
