Well we didn't try it - and yes we did get beat!Willo said:
Yes it a game of opinions, however I dont get how some people are 100% sure we wont be better.DOUCHER said:Its all a game of opinions but for however many weaknesses TC has (and admitted, he was quiet at Stoke and generally struggles with the simple stuff), most week's he impacts the game and teams double or triple up on him. We will not be stronger without him, that's for sure.
We have never had the chance to find out.
lets try it especilly against Coventry nothing to loose, only the 3 points and most think we will get beat anyway.0 -

We probably would but we’d also be a worse team overall, as a we’ve built a team built around playing a back 3 and being solid at the back. That front 3 is no where near good enough to compromise what has got us here in the first placeBraziliance said:He's being played out of position, he's a winger in a front 3.
He's never a wingback, never a striker, his strength lays out wide. He's being used incorrectly. Not a single goal to his name after 18 appearances and 1300+ minutes of football.
Fairly confident if we played a front 3 of TC, Tanto and Apter, we would see more positive attacking play than what we are currently seeing.
Is definitely the most frustrating player we have atm alongside Leaburn though.The system we’ve built works with a hybrid LW/ST role and TC is capable of doing the running required to make that work. When we have everyone fit the system works well and TC is a key cog in that machine. I really don’t get the position thing, when he gets the ball he’s mostly in wide areas so what’s the problem?5 -
We'd need to be more attacking, to make up for all the goals we would let in. With only two in midfield, and 3 with a back 4, every week would be like Southampton. We do not have the players to attack or defend like that. If we survive this season maybe, but this season is defend defend defend. And we have just seen what will happen if we don't or can't..Braziliance said:He's being played out of position, he's a winger in a front 3.

IT Andy, I can’t believe a charlton fan has uttered those words!!!😂, Johnny Robinson was great for us. I would have a team full of Johnny Robinson's, maybe not in goal though.blackpool72 said:

He is always attacking out wide and basically plays as a wing forward already.Braziliance said:He's being played out of position, he's a winger in a front 3.

Basically my thoughts entirely.queensland_addick said:
I've been a big fan of TC since he first broke into the first team. He brings a sense of excitement and expectancy, that no other current player can deliver.Sword65pf said:
I said this during the thread yesterday and upset a few for it. Made a couple of comments in jest that were taken as insults, which although someone was being soft wasn’t my intention., but back to TC, his passing and end product are far from being close to good enough he’s made a lot of appearances at a young age so should have improved and he hasn’t in these aspects of his game.Covered End said:TC was awful yesterday, he barely found a Charlton player all game.
He either passed the ball to an open space that Coventry (team) collected or he passed to them.
He's clearly exhausted (not surprising since I think he's featured in most every game and started nearly all).
He needs to be rested, put him on the bench and bring him on in the second half for a game or two.
I'd give Apter a chance in his place, but whoever starts in his place, give TC a rest he deserves it.
I want to see him push on, not go backwards.
Unfortunately, I do wonder if Jones has inadvertently put too much pressure on him by firstly bigging him up, saying that he was potentially Premier League class, then trying to convert him into a striker.
We saw a brief flurry of goals, but he hasn't been the same since.
So just when everyone thought that he was about to kick on, and move up a level, he has instead gone backwards.
It seems to me that he has suffered from being overplayed, whilst at the same time having to deal with International call ups.
He appears to be a quiet, shy lad, who maybe finds it difficult to deal with too much pressure, and someone whose confidence can be badly affected by the kind of adverse criticism that he's currently receiving.
If he was at another club, with a deeper squad, he'd have probably been rested many weeks ago and would have benefited greatly from that.
In summary I'd like to see his game time better managed for his own good.0 -
Jones won’t give up for him because end product and decision making is the only thing TC is missing from his game. In terms of pace dribbling ball progressing workrate movement etc he’s right up there at this level. If Jones can figure out how to get Goals + Assists into him he automatically moves from a bottom championship winger to a top level winger because he has everything else.5

Steve Brown in goal, obviously 🥅Sword65pf said:
