Just watched the highlights where I rewatched the open goal miss. The shot was away before the Brentford defender lifted his leg. Really the defender was only a distraction. There was a clear sight on goal. Not a good miss, particularly in the context of the match. Don't want to get on Harriotts back as strikers do miss and CH has my support. He does need to work on his composure in front of goal particularly on big occasions.
Kitson on was right though. Our back four is good man. One of the best in the league I think
I think it will be better if/when Morrison comes in for TBH but agree that we looked good. We've also got really strong cover in pretty much every position (a second choice back five of Pope - Wilson - Gomez - Morrison - Fox is not too bad).
TBH spent too much time too far right during the game.
deflection massively unlucky because it was an heroic attempt at a block. so Murphys law will no doubt see him making some great blocks like that in the other games.
Kitson I thought was great. He is quite well spoken for a footballer (posh lad). Maybe it was because that was the first real football this season but I thought he was excellent.
I got a soft spot for Leroy due to Charlton connections and his time at the CAFC soccer schools. However, he isnt the greatest analyst.
throw Claridge in the sea and never have him back.

completely agree. The defender would only ever have blocked a Churchino-type pea roller. any shot with power he doesn't block
It's one miss and hit the bar even. Doesnt make him suddenly a player of low technique for one miss. Also, the fact that it so obviously relates to 2 dropped points is not all down to CH personally. By that I mean if we hadn't conceded, no one cares. Just because we did concede, doesnt mean Harriott is suddenly worse than useless.
glad to see most people are cutting Callum some slack
I'm in support of harriott I think if he pea rolls it as suggested...the defender blocks it he had to play it over him,adrenalin just got the better of him!
As mentioned it comes down to composure,the frustrating thing is...we all know he has got it!ie Blackpool last season and Watford!

Agree about Leroy . Why is his admittedly brief spell with us never mentioned ? I thought they like to dredge up any obscure connection. When Brighty is on Late kick off his three Millwall games qualify him as an ex Spanner. When he analysed the away match against the Spanners it was described as his two old clubs.
