Time will tell whether it works or not, but I'm pleased to see Pardew varying it and bringing in a second striker.
Basey is injured, let's hope Chris Powell is fully fit.
Interesting that Semedo is on the bench and replaced by Ambrose. With Holland, Reid and ZZ also in midfield I wonder who is going to play on the left and right flanks?
[cite]Posted By: Czech_Addick[/cite]Surprised Reid hasn't been given a rest. Not a bad looking team though with a decent bench.
It looks as though Semedo is getting a rest instead, I'm not sure I'd want to change the midfield too much, there are three changes already with Semedo, Sam and Thomas out. plus Reid going on to the left wing. An experienced looking midfield and its good to see Pardew freshening it up.
Foul by Luke Varney (Charlton) on Robbie Blake (Burnley). Indirect free kick taken right-footed by Robbie Blake (Burnley) from left wing, headed goal by Andy Gray (Burnley) (top-left of goal) from centre of penalty area (6 yards).Charlton 0-1 Burnley. Assist (cross) by Robbie Blake (Burnley) from left wing.
2nd goal:
Foul by Sam Sodje (Charlton) on Robbie Blake (Burnley). Direct free kick taken right-footed by Robbie Blake (Burnley) from left channel, headed goal by Chris McCann (Burnley) (top-right of goal) from centre of penalty area (6 yards).Charlton 0-2 Burnley. Assist (cross) by Robbie Blake (Burnley) from left channel.

Wouldn't mind betting they play narrow pushing out wide when we attack.
Holland & ZZ orthodox centre mid.
Not a lot of ball winning bite - but plenty of tidy passing, running & hard work.
Ex-Palace keeper Kiraly in goal for them.
".....Darren Ambrose and striker Luke Varney are also in the straying XI.
Is this why Charlton lose their way......? ;o)

Nothing to trouble their keeper though.
mccann, header, another free kick, two nil down in 11 minutes
Wait for the storm of booing at half time. That'll help. (

COME ON CHARLTON, wake up, we've been here before against Sheffield Weds, this just is NOT anywhere near good enough, take a point!
not sure if heart or head rules this result today...
