If we can model him on Bale, ie move from LB to further forward and then apply some finishing, he could be deadly in L1.2

Swindon did it today and Bristol Rovers did it when we went up, teams will push up and blow a bit of caution to the win if they need to get something
Cant see there being many players faster that Alfie at this level, if he can learn to beat the 'keeper, they will regret it - Just seen his one v one again, absolutely ridiculous, Swindon player has about a 10-yard headstart on him!!!11 -

Doughty was our ONLY attacking spark in quite a few Championship level games. Not to be taken lightly.6 -

On the way home - that great feeling when Charlton win away. That does us all good, not just the team and the Lord Bow, but all of us, and Thomas too, he’s seen that he’s not buying a duff team. Dont tell me that doesnt make any difference to him. Victory is victory.
Night off from dossiers, except maybe one email to a certain Stoke City fan with good reason to detest Elliott. Then tomorrow, back in pursuit of the scumbags.0 -

Got a feeling Bonne will come into his own this season. Last year he had the pressure of trying to fill Taylor's shoes while the coward was injured. He still did well but now Bonne is his own man and has shown he knows where the net is. Expecting a lot from him.6

Then tomorrow, back in pursuit of the scumbags.Really enjoyed the game, although the first twenty minutes didn’t auger well. We clearly have the nucleus of a pretty good side, and some promising young players coming through, but we’ll need strengthening if we want a shot at promotion.Gilbey looks classy, good games for Lapslie, Barker, Doughty, Bonne, JFC in particular.The next two weeks will be ... interesting. The dawn of a new era, with any luck.2 -
Started off rather disjointed but structured a performance as the game went on.
Still a huge amount to do, definitely a work in progress and certainly the squad needs strengthening.
Four rather good goals in quite an entertaining game.
Don't want to rush to any judgement about him beyond saying seeing Barker score was pleasurable, seeing him play was more so, can he defend as well as be composed?
He is only 17, we will see, but I have hopes.0 -
Good start to the season against a newly promoted and not too shabby outfit .. the line up showed that our squad is not that 'weak' and is stronger than the vast majority of L1 clubs. Bonne will do well as will Aneke and (hopefully) Washington, they will be up against weaker defences than they faced last year. Equally our defence will be up against inferior strikers in this division.
I thought Purrington was underused last season, he should keep the left back berth. We have quite a few decent midfielders now, that area should not be a worry.
Charlie Barker ? .. we signed Paul Went for a big fee at age 18, when he had already played around 50 games for Orient. We sold Bowyer for a big fee as a teenager with a lot of experience. The point is, if they are good enough, they are old enough.
Goalkeeper ? .. there does not seem to be a queue to sign Phillips and there have been a LOT of young keepers moving clubs so far this close season. I'd be more than happy if Amos were to spend this season in goal for us. He is far more than just capable.
This should be a good season, it'll be a great one if/when the sale to a committed owner goes through and we are rid of spivs, chancers, and senile old codgers3 -

Just saw the highlights. Anekes goal brilliant, he goes past players so easily, he done it a few times at the end of last season aswell. Hope he stays fit as i think he will be a key player this season.5

Great jump and assist from Aneke
Brilliant vision from Barker to carry on his run when both nearby defenders had stopped
The team all running to him after scoring and celebrating the way they did. Watching Oshilaja, you'd think he'd scored himself
Also from the bench/stands, that was the loudest moment of the game.
Barker has clearly made a terrific impression to management and first team players in the last couple of weeks1 -

Our use of long ball last season often received a lot of negative comments, and deservedly so. So it's great to see how it can be used decisively.0 -
Bet @PragueAddick is pleased with the 2nd round draw 😳😳
