Agree that we don't need another striker. If we had this amount of injuries at a later point in the season, we might've got a loan in but it's difficult bring someone in short term when it's still August.
Would like to see us sign someone who can cover both right back and centre back (Lenglet would've been perfect for this, I reckon) as well as a proper left winger. Not been convinced by Bergdich thus far. Maybe the missing Moussa can fill that left hand void?
With a fully fit squad we can compete. But no club, and especially Charlton, ever has a fully fit squad. Without the extra depth we need it'll be another mid-table finish.
In my opinion we need a left sided midfielder, cover at right back (Cousins and Charles Cook not the answer) and another option up front. Elsewhere we are ok. I'm not sure I'd put too much store in what Guy says as he likes to play things down.
Agree! But the option up front has to be another big player similar to mak! We have plenty of smaller skillful strikers but lack depth with the hold up man..
Mak is key to the way we play as we saw today we are completely different without him playing!
Ya know it wasn't long ago that someone mentioned that Moussa might be close to getting back to training. I for one have no problem with him getting game time, but there just seems to be no idea when he'll be back. Perhaps this is why Guy hasn't been gung-ho on signing a LM. Our only two targets have been Henry and Pennant, so if either of these two don't happen, I believe Moussa may be the answer.

Nothing changed with regard to Henry deal according to Luzon. He got MoM and unlikely to leave especially seeing as Van La Parra looks to be off.
No idea how he got MOM.....
Probably because he could run past two or three of our players at will, and did, except for Solly. Might have had something to do with it. He was my MOM too. Just wish he'd been playing for us!

Except for Solly, oh apart from their winning goal of course!
Loic Nego has left the club to join Hungarian side Videoton on a 3 year deal according to several sources on Twitter such as Le'Quipe.
I think after Saturday's rumours this can only be a good thing and maybe more to follow. THD was hinting at leaving on loan a few days back but can't imagine his wages would be that significant.
Charlton are a bit like the guy who's goes on your boys holiday who does his bollocks on day 5 and come the last night asks for the free one of your 2 for 1 beers at happy hour
Jelle Vossen leaves Burnley to return to Belgium without playing a game !!
Apart from the 4 starts and coming on as a sub on Saturday you mean? Gone to Brugge to replace Tom De Sutter, all we need now to complete the set is Ilombe Mboyo signing for Burnley!

There could be more activity around the exit door, with other departures before the window closes on Tuesday evening possible. An interesting move for one of the club's fringe players has been mooted, and if any more departures could be arranged, it would provide a significant contribution towards bringing in a new recruit.

Reza? hope not...can't think of many fringe players of value.
FYI, SL just got beaten by Club Bruges (with half the team injured) with a painful 7-1 ! So SL needs reinforcements ! Either with Renaud Emond (from the club who's manager is Big Bob) or indeed Igor Vetokele.

Not worried about upfront as between Makienok, Watt, Igor, KAG & Reza we are sorted, just been bad luck that 4 of them are injured.

Tucudean anyone??
Or maybe not.
Not even winning the predictions league topped it. :-)

Same bloke who broke the James Henry story
What happened to him as haven't heard his name mentioned much recently? Injured? Dropped?
