    Off to your mancave then

    Happy that a few of the first teamers are getting a rest, specifically Vetokele, Solly and TBH. Hope Cousins doesn't get more than 65, need him fresh for Saturday.

    Still a strong team though, hope Tucadean bags a goal or two for his confidence.

    Anyone clarify whether it's Morro-Bikey-Gomez-Fox or Morro-Bikey-Gomez and Wilson/Fox as wingbacks?

    Could be 4-2-3-1 w/

    Morro Bikey Gomez Fox
    --Buyens Cousins
    Wilson Moussa Harriott
    -----Tucadean


  • Be interesting to see where Moussa and Harriott play... Moussa on the left, with Harriott up front or Harriott on the left and Moussa playing off Tucudean.
  • Surprised we've not given Pope a run out. Apart from that not a bad side.

  • It'll be 4-4-2. Gomez, Bikey, Morisson, Fox. Twitter has just announced it in a weird order

    Without being sure, my guess would be

    Gomez Morrison Bikey Fox

    Wilson and so on


    But I'm not sure - I just think Gomez played a little right back in preseason
  • 4-2-3-1:

    Henderson
    Gomez, Morrison, Bikey, Fox
    Buyens, Cousins
    Wilson, Moussa, Harriott
    Tucudean

    Could also be 4-4-1-1 with Moussa/Harriott left and the other in the hole. Could even be wingbacks in a 3-5-2 but I think that unlikely.
  • Isn't Gomez a centre back?
  • Welcome back @RedMidland - thank you for doing the match threads - much appreciated.

    Yes, been playing right back at times in pre season to ease him into the side.

    Thanks @WSA its a pleasure.
  • Regardless of the formation it's going to be really interesting to see Buyens and Cousins pairing in the middle.

    Hopefully it works alright tonight and gets given a go on Saturday if we're sticking w/ 2 up top.
  • Would have thought it would make more sense to play a youngster in his correct position but hey ho, let's see how he goes.
    This is effectively an extra pre season game.

  • Uh oh Red, sounds like trouble brewing from Mrs Red ;-)
  • apologies up front for any typos and spelling mistakes with this new side.
  • Surprised how strong that team is but great news IMO, glad Bob is taking the cup seriously.
  • Uh oh Red, sounds like trouble brewing from Mrs Red ;-)

    Yep looks as though I'm gonna get a beating from Mrs RM.....still it can wait until game is over!!! LOL
  • Evening @TCE, how you doing mate?
  • Sounds like you may enjoy it!
  • Pitch is looking immaculate.....someone has posted pics on Twitter and ground looks top notch!!
  • Sounds like you may enjoy it!

    Oh yes....but I wont tell Mrs RM!!
  • It's the League Cup early August at the Valley and the rip snorting free scoring Addicks are at home to lower league opposition...

    Soapy checks his almanac of past Charlton cup glories and makes a snap decision (well of 20yrs standing) that he is too excited to attend in person. Good luck the lads. Welcome back Red and let the cup run begin!

    C'mon you Addicks!
