Well, EFL Trophy tonight, bit of a Marmite of a competition, but hey, got to be worth making a decent fist of it whatever your preferences, and a chance for a few fringe players to get some minutes, but also there is pride at stake, and we can't go losing to some northern U21 kids from Brumie land can we...

So let's see how this one goes...🤷‍♂️

The Addicks are expected to line-up in a 4-2-3-1 formation with Laqeretabua, Lucas Ness, Deji Elerewe, and Nathan Asiimwe starting ahead of Maynard-Brewer.

Skipper Scott Fraser will operate alongside Louie Watson in midfield, with Tyreece Campbell, Charlie Kirk and Chem Campbell playing behind Leaburn.

Tennai Watson, Lloyd Jones, Alfie May, Chuks Aneke and Slobodan Tedić are joined on the bench by academy prospects Henry Molyneux and Harvey Kedwell.

Charlton: Maynard-Brewer; Laqeretabua, Ness, Elerewe, Asiimwe; L.Watson, Fraser (c); T.Campbell, Kirk, C.Campbell; Leaburn

Subs: Molyneux, T.Watson, Jones, Kedwell, May, Aneke, Tedić

    Should have thought about Laqeretabua @ Left-Back, seeing he played there for Fiji @ the U20 World Cup - Not bad getting just the one player from the starting eleven wrong though. :)

    Highlight of the night could end up seeing Fraser get 90 minutes in...

    But you got three wrong... not that I blame you. I'd forgotten Kirk existed too.

    The idea of someone spitting feathers over the fact Charlie Kirk has been selected to play in a Pizza Trophy match against an Aston Villa youth team is very comical to me.

    Will be interesting to see how a team that's predominantly our youngsters shapes up to Villa's youngsters. Hopefully Ness and Deji have a better time of it than last time they played together for the first team.

    Villa come down the left, get a cross in but it's headed clear (by their own player?)

    Chem tries a one / two with Kirk, but a short pass back from Charlie gets cut out

    Deji plays it long to Chem Campbell on the left, he plays it in to Kirk, ball gets turned over and Campbell concedes a free kick in their half.
