Gilbey is so incredibly cumbersome on and off the ball. Potentially one of the worst signings we've made.1

Sign-up Kwado Baah, what a talent at 17.2

Great finishes from piss poor defending.AFKABartram said:Don’t want to be excused as making excuses, but Christ have they scored some decent goals. Absolute last thing we needed tonight.
Bonkers half1 -
Unprofessional to be liking tweets like that as the owner IMO5

Well that was amazingly bad, even by Charlton standards. While we can all wonder at how bad Gunter, Gilbey, Pearce, Smyth and Maatsen have been, the blame ultimately lies with how Bowyer set them up. Nobody playing right back and all four goals conceded come though that area. We should have switched to 4-4-2 at 2-1 down, but no, Bow knows best!
They are pretty awful at the back and cannot control Aneke, so let's stop putting square pegs in round holes and go 4-4-2 with Schwartz and Aneke up front, Millar on the left, Williams on the right, and hope the defence can stop the odd attack. When Millar gets tired we have Washington; when Aneke gets tired we have Bogle; when Williams gets tired we have Morgan. Hopefully nobody gets sent off as that will give Bowyer an easy excuse.
We can still win this but only if they start playing properly.4 -
I just don't get any of it.2

I never thought I would say this, but Bowyer has to go. I hope he does the honourable thing and throws the towel in. Better than being sacked.
I don't see Jackson as a viable option. We need someone who has more managerial experience, someone who will command respect of a dressing room that has seriously lost its way. The only candidate is Curbs. Give him a short term contract to stem the tide of abject surrender which is now endemic and which has seen the team in utter free fall. Time to show your steel Mr Sangaard. The right decisions are often the hardest ones. Go to it.

Said recently we were in relegation form and got laughed at by a few. Sad times. Both teams are so shit we could still get something from this but we simply should not have witnessed that 45.1

Exactly this. And it's not just in this game. It's every game the moment we lose the ball.Pelling1993 said:Callumcafc said:At risk of being LOL'd and this is in no way trying to excuse our performance, but from a statistical standpoint... I'd love to see the xG for this game. Feels like Rochdale would have no more than about half a goal in expectation.
They've had two shots from inside the area and score four. It's simply ridiculous conversion.
Whilst their finishing has been excellent, there can be absolutely no excuse for the 10yards of space each player has had for each goal0 -
Exciting stuff! We’re gonna win 5-4!2

Can he tackle at Right Back?AllHailTheHen said:I've been on a dog training video call for the last 90 minutes. Have I missed anything?0 -
For a manager who’s become increasingly concerned with making tweaks based on the opposition I’m surprised he did that when Rochdale have a very dangerous player attacking down that side.Hartleypete said:Smyth right wing back, what a fucking joke. Bowyer has lost the plot.
If we dont turn things around soon it will bea relegation battle.
Absolute joke tactics.

Look.
We nearly closed down
No pre season
Scraped a team together
Injuries
LB so Loyal
Bla, bla, bla bla ............1 -
This is not supposed to be a toy box to play with, but a credible football team.
Half a game Lee, half a game to prove you're not imitating Karel Fraeye.
This is a miserable disgraceful display so far.0 -
I think 6-4CafcWest said:Exciting stuff! We’re gonna win 5-4!2 -
I wouldn't mind but we have two top clas right backs so why pick a striker ?3
-
The game should have kicked off at 7 45 as originally planned, it would be 1-1 now.16
-
Of we score more goals than they do we will win the game!!1

That's gotta be a joke. Smyth at RB had that title, unfairly so but it is what it is.cafcfan1990 said:

Thought the wall for the free kick was not well positioned before he took it.0

I think I prefer Matthews to Gunter9
-
Disappointing half . Their finishing better than ours . Bring on Schwartz for Smyth at HT .0

Yes of course it's possible, that completely misses the point I was making.golfaddick said:

Well I am pleased the players are showing desire particularly Chuks. Just got to sort it out at the back! For me Gunter needs resting. Matthew’s would not have let their LW that much space. Smyth offfers very little. I’d bring on Washington.I don’t think we can say they aren’t playing for the shirt and Gilbey doing ok, unfortunately he needs to play like Messi to cast off the scapegoat title from the boo boys1
-
Nobody in our coaching staff has a clue how to set the team up defensively- we're becoming a laughing stock.0
-
Dressing room went AWOL a few weeks ago, you can’t slag off players to the media, TS & the new top team won’t be putting up with this for much longer, taxi................0

At least Smyth isnt a defender though, he shouldnt be in that position - Gunter is a defender and havent seen him do anythingDazzler21 said:

Anyone who even tries to defend Bowyer knows less about football than I do about quantum physics5
