I don't think I've ever seen anyone nominate Peter Reid in a favourite Charlton team before

Well - whilst I didn’t see Peter Reeves play - my late Dad would place Reeves well above Andy Reid - Reid was decent, but I’m sure the older CL’s would agree that Reeves was quality - sadly, career cut short by serious injury (and he is a CAFC fan to boot 👍)

It is a personal thing: Peter Wakeham had a great autograph with an incredible letter 'P'. Stuart Leary would be in my 'Best Ever' team, but Johnny Summers was my football hero. I remember standing on the railing at the front of the East Stand and seeing about 5 players Charlton restraining him from murdering the Plymouth fullback. It was like looking at Superman. His son was in the year above me a Catford Boys School - had a friend called 'Stuart'.
Honourable mentions for me include: Shelvey (how good he was at that age) Diarra (so classy) Buyens (one of the bright sparks alongside JBG in the RD era)
Rommedahl (I hated how we didn't play to his strengths) Reid (if he lost 6-8kg and gained a yard of pace he'd have been lethal) Blackett-Taylor (our current most exciting player) Lookman (same as Shelvey, beyond his years) Taylor (through gritted teeth, but when he was on form he was on absolute fire)

Honourable Mentions
Conor Gallagher Joe Aribo Lyle Taylor Matt Holland
Lyle Taylor gets an honourable mention but Kinsella and Rufus don’t even feature…hmmm
Honestly didn't get to see that much of Rufus unfortunately. And Kins was a flip of the coin with Jacko.
Taylor is there because there really wasn't that many other profilfc strikers to include - I guess Shaun Bartlett,BWP or Johansson are the alternatives.
From when I first started watching, I've opted for my "classic Charlton" side to be made up solely from those that came through our youth system. It's a 5-3-2 with Joe Gomez deliberately positioned in the centre of a back five - if only to keep the peace between the two other CBs!
Deano; Young Rufus fish Powell; newton parker Jensen Robinson; Super Clive Bent.
Bench includes Costa, Kish, jacko, kinsella, konchesky di canio. Best midfield I remember was Kish smertin and Murphy but only Kish is allowed near my team

A few tough picks. Gone for Di Canio as a No 10 rather than having 2 out and out poachers (so Mendonca and Hales miss out)
