Obileye is the big Unit at CB, who was at the Daggers on loan. Thomas is more of a sweeper who likes, when possible, to run with the ball. They complement each other quite well, just like Thomas and Lennon did.
Thomas and Gomez were exceptional together. When Thomas went forward, Gomez always had the pace to cover behind him if we lost possession.
I have just got back from a freezing cold VCD ground. A good performance from the U21s and Ademola Lookman looked a class act. His goal was a turn and a shot into the top corner. Brentford scored from a corner when a header was saved and the follow up was slotted in. We were the better side in the second half and we scored a penalty when Brandan Hanlan was fouled in the box. Joshua Umerah slotted the ball home.

Some of his kicks were awful. The major difference between the first team and the U21s is the speed that the U21s move the ball. There is also an outlet for the U21s because of the constant movement. The first team overpass the ball and there is little movement off the ball.

Agree, quite enjoy watching the u21s, quick and good movement.
Mick Harford was watching in the stands, understand from earwigging he was watching some of our boys for a Luton loan.
Lol that got my attention! As mentioned elsewhere there will almost certainly be bag searches at the entrance, due to the alcohol rule changes at Hamlet.

Don't think I've seen a more impressive Charlton youngster.
I'm at Dulwich, picking up last seasons pre-season prog to add to the collection so an added bonus.
No team news on their twitter who were reporting on the game.
