Which I think is quiet strong. Definitely feel like we need to shift at least one of Gilbey, Morgan or JFC (who have all impressed me) to get another attacking winger/forward in, and we need full back cover.
I forgot to put DJ on the subs bench. Leuth will be aghast.
Happy to admit I have never really watched either Payne or Fraser before joining Charlton. Am I correct in thinking that both of them can play in within a front 3 and not been completely shoved out of position?

With Egbo and Chuks out indefinitely we're dreadfully short at fullback and striker - this is going to be a long last month of the window waiting for the loanees to fill the voids. Not obvious where many goals are to be found - allowing Washington to go may be too costly. League position by 1 September likely to providing much cause for concern.
The surplus of centre mids has to be where the departees have to come to make budget/headcount space for the needed incomers. Hard to see Gilbey's place as a result. Looks like Garner likes Albie who has had a decent pre-season, but will he favour him over his own recruits? Charlie Kirk's affection or otherwise for SE London might precipitate his departure, FWIW I'd accept any offers there, same goes for DJ.

A very balanced view here on the squad. Thanks..I'm not entirely convinced of this gk yet to give him guaranteed start over Macca though. It does look like...once again...goals will be in short supply. And yes Kirk and DJ leaving ~ both fine with me. I'd like to see 2 or 3 forwards in this week. We've got three camels up front ~ fine for the longball but not find for the "high press" playing it on the floor approach Garner purportedly wants to instill in this team.
