My bad, was veing very lazy with my search. Much more recent one that includes Surman (albeit for 60 minutes)Sage said:
A hell of a lot in the defensive and middle third and lots more down their left hand side too. They also very clearly play short goal kicks too, a few traps can be set here.MattF said:

This example though, was before Surman signed so might be slightly different with him in the middle of the park.

A team with 3 wins in 14 should mean we won’t at least lose but football doesn’t work like that
2-3 to MK and at least we’ll get better when everyone is fit0 -
No disrespect but they ARE Wimbledon, but we won't start that old arguement again.Sage said:You may have also noticed I have only called our opposition MK or Milton Keynes. Nothing about them is 'Dons' so without any disrespect, to me they're MKFC or Milton Keynes FC.
I'm going for a draw tonight. 2-2.0 -
You can see though that Surman probably attempted the most forward passes in the team, especially in midfield, the majority of the weren’t successful.ForeverAddickted said:

Says to me their movement to progress up the pitch isn’t very good, but they are great at keeping the ball in areas we would be happy for them to have it, and playing it to the left.1 -

Woke up this morning with a level of excitement comparable to the semi-final against Donny and the game at Wembley. I think I need to find a way of burning off some nervous energy.1

Behave ! Although, come to think of it, we tend not to excel on cold midweek evenings in front of sparse Valley League 1 crowds...mendonca said:1 -

Just over half of their passes (in both matches) are between their 3 defenders and the keeper.MattF said:

Charlton win this 3-1, lets see us move to 2nd spot still with at least 1 game in hand over others. The 2,000 fans will help make a difference. COYR's1

Absolutely right. Well done.Sage said:You may have also noticed I have only called our opposition MK or Milton Keynes. Nothing about them is 'Dons' so without any disrespect, to me they're MKFC or Milton Keynes FC.
I wouldn't worry about showing disrespect anyway, given how they got into the league, and continue to use that suffix.
Great review again btw3 -

Possibly, just the 8 first team players out for this game.
Come on Charlton, let's show our (in person) fans a win for the first time this season :-)0 -
Very comfortable home win.

That passing map has f..ked my eyes up, home win 2-0.1

Another good Sandgaard article in today’s Guardian, the feel good factor coming back to the club, the team performing well and fans back at the Valley for tonight’s match, what could possibly go wrong?
Cue typical charlton performance when all the omens are good, 1-2 defeat

Do I watch this tonight or Play football with my team?
Enjoy both, but fitness is creeping back and I don't want to waste any opportunity to play...
We'll see what the boss lady says when she gets home.0 -

I know it's not for everyone, but MK are currently 5th in the xG table. They are one of the league's best sides between the boxes but haven't always been clinical at the sharp end.
But for me, they are close to being a very good side and have several canny players, Scott Fraser in particular is championship level. Think this is a tougher game than the league table suggests.
That said, we look better when sides open up and play football, rather than sit back and contain. They will push up and leave space in transition. Players like Washington, Williams and Maddison should thrive with that.
We have to remain patient as we won't see much of the ball, but I am confident we have enough to hurt them with quick attacking transitions and win the game.

Really interesting one this one. We tend to do better when we don't have the ball and they love having it - could be good for us.
If you look at the table and our form you might be fooled into thinking this is a home banker but they have a good spine - certainly at L1 level - in Keogh, Surman and Jerome.
I'd like to think we will win but I am thinking a 2-1...maybe Maddison with something a little bit tasty for the winner and another for Bogleman3
