Really enjoyed this,cannot understand why so few people came.Very even game ,but they were getting stronger towards the end,and maybe if extra time was played they would have done us.The penalty shoot out was the first one for a long time that when I saw the players go up,they actually looked confident of scoring(the last one was a bit hairy),which probably reflects on the managers attitude all round.stand outs,DJ was a thorn in their side without much end product,Clayden to me was MOM,we dont need a LB back up,and he will get better.If we can just get that nippy striker to get to these half chances ,we are in for a good season.
A pair of quality strikes and some late drama at The Valley saw the Addicks progress on penalties in the @Carabao_Cup on Tuesday evening.
Here's our take from Charlton's first-round triumph...

Good shape analysis but even though they specifically improved on DJ receiving the ball, I didn’t feel things changed at all from the start of the second half, I thought we dominated the first 20-25 but then lost our hold after all the changes.

I was there last night, but can absolutely understand why many would stay away. Our cup form has been, generally woeful, and I assume many thought we would put out a vastly under-strength side and meekly exit the competition.
Love the positions Henry took up outside the box. Paid a dividend so I'm pretty sure that was a set play they had worked on for second phase balls falling outside the box.
So our second string beat a Championship club's first team. That's some accomplishment. Bravo Ben Garner!
Terrific first half where they couldn't get near us. Didn't think JFC was that bad but Gilbey was just Gilbey. Either way you can see why they're both bottom of the pecking order.
When QPR went two up front in the second half they could press the backline a bit better and made it harder for us to play out but we still did well until Dobson and Clare went off. I thought that was going to be the beginning of the end and it nearly was.
Thought we struggled to deal with Shodipo and Roberts (obviously) for QPR. Bonne was terrible. I question Beale's judgment if he's keeping him around this year.
Full credit to BG and this system he's building. And to TS for bringing him in. We'd have been watching a very different game under JJ.
The bloke in front of me got up and left when QPR scored on 80 minutes. Talk about having no faith! I reckon he posts on here...

I was sat right next to the away bench and Bonne was visibly fuming when he was brought off as well.
Think L1 is his level, his return for Ipswich last year was decent. In hindsight selling him when we did was a great bit of business though.

He scored 12 in 43 last season. Maybe seemed like he scored more because he had that good run at the start. Dunno what he was fuming about, he deserved to come off!

Agreed thought Our backline had him in their pocket all night.
That Aaron Henry goal just keeps getting better & better everytime you watch it…goal of the season for us right there…👍,well played to the boys last night,stuck at it…bodes well for rest of season…
I only see games on CTV and last night only had commentary but reading the marks and comments this season it seems we have a different Morgan and Kirk. It is hard to understand the difference on a stream but what is it that has improved them both?

Morgan - More intensity to his pressing and play. He is passing and moving, rather than just passing and watching.
Kirk - He's got a few players who are overlapping and showing movement, so is showing his offering now. JJ used him as a left wing back remember, just because that formation could not be altered.
