    This is the most brain dead group of players I’ve ever seen, zero spatial awareness anywhere on the pitch. 

    Really can’t wait to get rid of this squad and start again. 
    This is where I’m at.

    Im not even particularly happy we’ve pulled it back because it’s just pathetic that Charlton in the third tier at the valley concede two AGAIN, against league strugglers.

    Thats not arrogant, our history says we should have a degree of arrogance at this level, just awful this set of players.

    Why are we giving Millar gametime. He is woeful in the final third.

    We sign Jaiyesimi on a permanent 2.5 year contract, so give him a run of games and stop giving gametime to an underperforming loanee.
    Rumour is that if fit - we have to play him as part of the loan deal.
    If that’s the case then that’s poor management on our part.

    Take off Gunter and put Oshi at right back. Stronger, better in air and more pace.

    Just dropping this in here, thanks to @aliwibble, @ross1 and others for describing the action on the pitch. It helps. Thank you.

    Oh, and my defence of Maatsen? It was a silly foul - he's trying to do too much on his own - but think about how much play we've had down our left compared to our right, that's all :)

    Is there any substance to that “rumour”? I saw someone here speculate that it might be why Millar always plays and then it became a rumour, soon it will be fact!

    The players are better than the performance portrays, it seems to be lack of touch and understanding of each others game, they are playing as individuals rather than a team

    All I can say is so far the game is worth a tenner. That's more than the last few performances

    Maatsen has played very well, other than giving away a needless penalty away. Which is a pretty big negative

    Famewo clears out to the RHS of our area for a throw. The ball comes in, and Famewo has to clear for a corner

    48' Upson booked for a foul on Forster-Caskey. #cafc 2 #brfc 2

    Need a change on the left side. Maatsen and Millar costing us goals with poor play. Get Deji playing left back and push Maatsen forward where his mistakes are further away from goal and less likely to be disasterous.
    So replace one shit defender with another shit defender, playing on the wrong side. That'll work. 
    Got any better ideas?


    Play Purrington would be a start.

    For tonight play 3 at the back. 
    Purrington - excellent idea if he was on the bench.

    Three (five) at the back is way too negative for this fanbase in their current mood.
    I know Purrington is not on the bench. I was saying that he should have been selected instead of Maatsen, who is a poor defender.

    3-5-2 does not have to be negative, quite the opposite. Surely you play the system that suits the players that you have and gives you the best chance of winning. Gunter is poor at right back but would be fine in a three with Famewo and Pearce. Replace Maatsen with Watson, who would play at the centre, with Albie on the right of him and JFC to the left. Keep Millar to the wide left and have Shinnie or DJ on the right.
    Replace Stockley with Chuks and away you go.

    Stockley heads clear, and we get the ball upfield eventually.
  • Christ that was poor from the ref.. Blew for the foul whilst Washington still had the ball

    JFC looks to play Washington in, but the ref pulls the play back for a free kick against Upson.

    Morgan takes, it hits the wall and goes out for a corner from the left.

    If another corner gets cleared before it's passed the near post I'm going to smash my iPad.
