who else agrees the introduction of Kermorgant changed the dynamic of the season, he has been phenominal

    He has been a revlation, but to be fair to the other players, we were top when he came in. Well done to the bloke who threw him a beret yesterday btw.

    There are not enough superlatives for this man! Thanks Chrissy for recognising pure talent and commitment. I so wanted to vote for him but Solly has been equally fantastic and played all season. Forgive me yann!

    I thought this was going to be a post about Prichard. Thought he changed the game yesterday no doubt

    Can't believe he has been hiding in the shadows for so long. Genuine quality.

    He was outstanding when he came on , sign him up for another 2 years Chrissy!

    Agreed. Always on the move but with a calmness that means he doesn't panic. I can't believe how he was playing non-league for so long. Even if CP had only introduced Yann and Pritch he would have demonstrated an eye for a player. But to do it with the whole squad strongly suggests that he is no 'one-season' manager.

    Pritchard is a neat and tidy footballer so always looks comfortable on the ball. Is he a bit too lightweight ? I'm not sure but in any case he has earned the right to be given every opportunity to prove he's not.

    Im sure he'll come back next season with a couple more pounds of muscle, great find from SCP

    Pritchard has benefitted from playing in a strong team - I doubt he'd look this good in last year's squad or any of those who've graced the Valley over the last few years. I like the way CP has used him - a few games here and there and he's resisted the temptation to over-use him, by keeping him fresh he's got the best out of him.

    A two year contract and a chance to play and test himself in the CCC is up for him next and he deserves the chance.

    They're both ace.
  • Don't always like the type of long ball to yann for his flick ons etc at the start of the season I think we got the ball down on the floor more and passed the ball better , also think yann has too much say in what's happening on the pitch , set pieces etc . Yes he has done well scored some good goals but I would always go with the tech better players rather than the fighters , will he have as much joy in the champ winning headers I'm not sure. Is he tech good enough maybe just, good luck.

    His technique is superb. A cushioned layoff just in front of us a couple of games ago, for example -- if the ball had been an egg he wouldn't have broken it.

    I felt a bit guilty after voting for Solly as Yann deserves recognition. Was a difficult choice and if close ahain -I'll edge to Yann next season.

    I voted Solly, but it was close - so many to choose from - shame we couldn't recognise them all in some way.

    I would say he's one of the technically best players I've ever seen in a Charlton shirt !

    I think Haynes reads the flicks better than BWP do could be a good partnership to build there. BWP is good still, don't get me wrong.

    He is the best signing in terms of impact (at the appropriate level) that I have ever seen in my 40 plus years of supporting Charlton. He is certainly the best header of a ball we have had since Matt Tees. Technically he is pretty special as well. He has also put his body on the line for the team, week in week out.

    To me, as I think MS said in the programme, he was the final piece of the jigsaw and he has just been tres formidable!

    I think it should be added that, as I understand it, Chris was clear to him that he needed to show a different, less aloof, attitude to the one he had shown (presumably) whilst at Leicester and this was his last chance to do it in England. It's not just spotting talent - its getting the best out of it.
