I'd rather play the younger Ladapo than Tupac right now1

Not happening at all for Charlton today. Haven't had a shot yet.
5 mins plus to go0 -

Since Gomez left how many of our Academy have gone onto much better things. And I dont include Lookman as he was brought in & spent very little time in our Academy. I mean players who came through the ranks.0 -
I can't believe that after weeks of dogmatically sticking with his preferred shape Appleton has decided to twist today. We played some absolutely jank teams where a change up with these players might have actually worked but he's chosen today to jam two wingers up behind May as his support and throw a curve ball to our defence who are already confused all the time. With Hector missing he could have played this same line up with a midfield 3 of Bakinson, Dobson and Edun and it would have made more sense than this. He's such a strange man. No doubt his plan was to hold out and then bring his little mate on for one of the Campbells and try and nick it but no surprises we've gone behind early. Deary me.

Barnsley 1-00

Pborough shot saved, did well to knock the ball off Edun and keep it in.1
-
Hold the ball for 20 seconds, roll it to Jones, lump it aimlessly forwards 60 yards, let them have a shot.
Rinse and repeat1 -
My god the mentality of this team is appalling2
-
Charlton give it away again inside their own half, ends with Kyprianou shooting at AMB from outside the box0
-
Think about 4 or 5 players gave it away in quick succession then1

Jeez.
Bullet dodged.
Posh break down the right, no-one makes a challenge, played across the edge of our box and the eventual shot just went wide.
Woeful defending.
More boos.2 -
42' Booking for Thomas
He fouls Poku.0 -
Alfie looking totally pissed off on his own, absolutely no support from midfield, TC may as well stayed in the dressing room, we will need something different second half, time for Conor...0
-
Strong boos as Burrows fires just wide for Posh - Addicks fans are frustrated as Charlton can't get out their own half0

embarrasing

There seems to be a thing about players getting special treatment or looked out over favourably cos they are from the academy. One of our own.... pwoper charlton. FFS this isnt a celebration that someone wore a Charlton nappy when they were having a shit on their dads knee.
Winning is all that matters. This is competitive sport.
If they are good enough - great. If not - fuck them off.
Winning winning winning is what matters.
This lot are not good enough.4 -
@golfaddick Konsa, Doughty, Beadle, Grant all doing quite well. It's easy to say how many, but hundreds of players go through academies and only a handful go on to play above their clubs level.2
-
we can all sit here and say Posh are a good side and very creative but you can’t just let them walk you through you. The 5 at the back only works of the players on the positions attempt to make tackles0

Apparently he's ordered by Scott and owners to play 4-3-3 ... this 8s what did for Holden. Perhaps Appletons had enough.Garrymanilow said:I can't believe that after weeks of dogmatically sticking with his preferred shape Appleton has decided to twist today.

Heatmaps tell their own story - Posh fans in the away end haven't seen much of the ball, put it that way0

Fair play to Bakinson, has looked decent and seen him try to gee up and organise the players more than most have done all season.6

Lookman (Atalanta), you might not want to include him, but he played for the U18s which was the Academy last time I checked.

We also need a couple of games for them to play, give them a chance ffsValley11 said:As has been said; you can buy the best players but you need a manager who knows how to use them2 -
I’m not sure Peterborough have even really put their foot on the gas yet. The two Campbells not working hard enough to help Alfie. I don’t rate our full backs unfortunately, they just don’t ever seem to create anything when getting forward. Need some changes at half time.1
