    I think we'll see Josh after the international break, Kelman hopefully on the bench before that
    Don't think there is another option with Charlie if Miles is injuried 
    Agree - was thinking just now it is almost certain Kelman will feature on Saturday. Especially considering it is not muscle related and he has been able to train for a while.

    Grant will start up front Saturday if Miles is injured and Alli will come in

    Before we get carried with Josh, he only played a few times in the championship.  While he was good in those matches,  we don’t know how that projects over a full season and he is coming off a major injury.  Taking it slow to introduce him into playing time makes the most sense especially since we have bell and mesic who can play the position.  I would be surprised if he plays any minutes for a few weeks after he is cleared to play

    Did NJ call him "Shark" in the interview ?

    Assume that’s the u21 game away at Sheff Wed.

    Don’t know how he gets in ahead of Mesik anyway

    Nice problem to have, and means we dont need to rush Edwards back, and when he is back dont have to overplay either of them

    Massive Josh Edwards fan but Mesik is mustard... He is going to struggle to get back in the team

    It's the kind of squad dilemmas we need. You'll never have a fully fit squad for long.

    Could play them both, shift Mesik inside.

    When he's fit, if Bindon carries on being a bit calamity at times, I would also like to see Mesík and Edwards together on the left side of defence

    Mesík will take some dropping the bloke is too good he must be our best bit of transfer business in years at £500k

    Might have been even cheaper than that, I’ve only seen £500k mentioned as a guess on here or social media.

    Mesik is great but I still think Koumetio will turn out to be a better bit of transfer business. A left footed centre back that’s tall, quick, good on the ball and only 23. Both very good signings

    I also think Billy is great mate but I think he has a history of picking up a few injuries so far in his career and if that continues he might be missing a few games whereas Mesik seems bombproof. I love Edward’s but I don’t think he walks back into the starting spot

    Because he loves a fish pun.

    Yes.

    I expect it’s because of his sharp angular forehead.

    We’ve gone from having Sessengon, Clayden, Penney and Thomas at LB. To now debating whether Josh Edwards (presuming his ability hasn’t been too badly affected by injury) should be a starter or bench option. 

    The fact that’s now considered a decision is paradise

    We find our best left-back in a decade plus, maybe since Wiggins, and we want to put him CB?

    Sheffield Wednesday v Charlton under 21's is a midday KO.
    Good luck Josh in what ever game time he gets.
    Nearly a year out is a long time in a footballers career.

    So he’s called Shark but NJ wouldn’t reveal why other than “He has had one thing done now that if you looked at him before you would know exactly what it was.”

    Turkey teeth? 
    You can take the boy out of Scotland…

    PS not being mean - love Josh and Charlton Fans in Scotland are very proud to sponsor him. And his new gnashers.

    Josh gives Stuart Pearce vibes to me and Ivan is the essence of Herman. Happy days.
