    First half team v Deal: Jones, Chin, Dench, Barker, Toure, Bakrin, Adigon, Kamara, Viggars, Santos, Kanu. HT 2-1 (Santos, Kanu).

    Aaron Jones in goal is a triallist.
  • Interesting to see adigun is there, I take it he has signed a new deal? Was supposedly out of contract this summer and quite highly rated by other clubs

    Good to see the 1st half team and Kanu is fit and well and scoring for U23.

    I would still have liked the question put to Ben Garner about Daniel Kanu and is he in your plans for the 1st team squad this season ?

    Be a bit vague about the names of incoming transfers but surely transparency is ok with our young talent ?

    O’Connor, Harvey, Ness, Mitchell, Anderson, Williams, Gavin, Ladapo and Reilly are the second half subs. Shortage of a couple of numbered shirts confusing the issue here.

    4-1 - best guess is it was Reilly got that one.

    5-1 Dylan Gavin - despite loud protests from ex-CAFC triallist Henry Newcombe in goal that the scorer was offside.

    Will he have actually seen him play yet?

    I checked Transfermkt and there are two goalkeepers called Aaron Jones.

     One is at AFC Wombles and is 18. The other now plays in the Welsh League and used to play for Everton. He is 22.

    I wonder which one it is.

    Had Garner seen Miles Leaburn play when he was included in the Spanish trip ?

    Someone has surely told him we have a prolific scorer in our academy who smashed it in the U18'S, and has played for the U23 and scores.

    Doing his pre season with his peer group is fine for Daniel Kanu and may be best to wait until September to put him in the first team squad as at least he will be at Cafc until January.

    We didn’t have 19 and 20 shirts. Hence my caution.

    I have no idea why Leaburn was selected, over another dozen candidates, we already had 3 options for the one up top on tour.

    I am sure people have told him but unless he has seen him he can't make an informed decision if he is good enough or not, can he?

    So my point is there isn't much point asking him if he will feature now, is there?

    6-2 is a good first set for Charlton and some of these lads are the real deal.

    Given how Leaburn played yesterday, I wonder if he was selected over Kanu because of his ability to play out wide - Isnt Kanu more of a central Striker, and so had Davison and Stockley in front of him?

    The games I watched the 18's Leaburn was central and Kanu played on the right but always got in the box when the play came down the Left.

    Nice set up at Deal. Kanu’s 60 yard run down the left for the 5th goal was different class.

    Don’t know, but no reason to think it’s bad.

    A sign of his relative decline that Barker didn't make the Spain squad, when Henry only got on yesterday playing right back.
