MATCH THREAD : Peterborough United Vs Charlton Athletic : Saturday 12th August 2023 : KO 3:00 Pm

can expect a far sterner test than last week with Leyton Orient, however, I am feeling forever
hopeful we can come home with a point..maybe three who knows...so here we go...
Panutche Camará makes his first league start for the club in this afternoon’s game against Peterborough United.
The midfielder is joined in the starting line-up by Jack Payne. The duo replace the injured Scott Fraser and Tyreece Campbell as Dean Holden makes two changes from the team that beat Leyton Orient at The Valley last weekend.
The changes mean the Addicks could line-up in the 3-5-2 formation used last week or a 4-3-3 formation.
If a 3-5-2, Lloyd Jones, Lucas Ness and Terell Thomas would start in a back three in front of Ashley Maynard-Brewer. Nathan Asiimwe and Corey Blackett-Taylor would operate as wing-backs with Camará joined in a midfield three by skipper George Dobson and Karoy Anderson. Payne would partner Alfie May.
If playing a 4-3-3, Asiimwe would drop into a back four, with Blackett-Taylor joining Payne and May in a front three.
Harry Isted, Michael Hector, Zach Mitchell, Tayo Edun, Conor McGrandles, Charlie Kirk and Daniel Kanu make up the substitutes bench.
Mandela Egbo, Richard Chin and Terry Taylor all miss the game with injuries picked up in midweek.
Charlton: Maynard-Brewer; Asiimwe, Jones, Ness, Thomas; Dobson (c), Anderson, Camará; Payne, May, Blackett-Taylor
Substitutes: Isted, Hector, Mitchell, Edun, McGrandles, Kirk, Kanu

Two changes for the Addicks. First league start for Pan Camara and Jack Payne also in. Campbell and Fraser both missing through injury.

Also no Terry Taylor or Manny Egbo in the squad at all. #cafc0 -
4-3-3 apparently but my first thought was a 4-4-2 diamond.

Fcuk me, Taylor injured now too. What comes of signing players that haven’t had a pre season. Amazes me that say the PFA don’t run a summer training camp for those out of contract so they are actually fit when they sign for a new club. A lot of freebies not joining clubs until late August won’t be fit until October. Farcical.12

Lacking a bit of confidence now with that line up, especially if it’s a 3-5-2 formation. Will be very happy to come away with a draw.2

A huge miss for Posh.3

That team looks like a 433 to me.
Has DJ just vanished? Not featuring in any squads, but not linked with anyone either.1 -

No real game changers on the bench0

Have to say that squad starting there is still a way of promotion chasing. Better be busy in the next few weeks.3

I don't love that. Looks like a 433 with Payne and CBT in the wide positions, though Holden might have just decided that nothing matters and stuck Payne up front in a 352 I guess. We really are more shallow in the squad than we would ideally be at this stage even without the infinity injuries we always get. We'd better hope we start well, take the lead early and consolidate the scoreline because the only player we have to bring on to try and change the game there is Kirk, which you'll all love I'm sure. Might be a long afternoon with poor old Alfie May watching long balls sail over his head, but at least the midfield three looks ok

Five home grown starting with two more on the bench.0

Max Whitall (prob spelt wrong) a name I've not heard of before, sitting in for Scott..also stalwarts Curbs and Brownie to keep up the banter in the studio,

We're not going to have a fully fit, or at least an almost fullly fit squad at any point this season.
Joys.0 -
Dean trying to sound upbeat in the pre match interview, but not sounding convincing...big test today, but Payne and Camara should be more than capable of covering for the injured..looks like a 4.3.30
