Does anyone else get the feeling that Fraeye has gone - shit or bust, coupled with best from of defence is to attack? Lookman could kill them with his pace, but we need to hold a tight midfield with Alou playing the holding role in front of the back 4.
Can't work out whether it's very brave or very stupid to be playing with Lookman, JBG, Gucci and Vaz Te all starting away to the team top of the league. Shit or bust.

I know what you mean but just look at the Match Preview... to many fans on there we've already lost which means we can do one of two things:
(1) Setup incredibly defensively and hope for a draw... Our defending proves that won't happen so we will lose but pinching a goal will be extremely unlikely (Only four away this season) (2) We give it a go... We might lose 3 / 4-0 but at the end of the day its still only three points... and with so many attackers on the pitch, we may nick a goal and then we can go Defensive
unless we are playing three up front, one of Reza, Lookman or Vaz Te will be playing out of position in midfield.
I remember Reza playing on the right of midfield at Derby two seasons ago. Craig Forsyth the Derby left back ran past him at will to overload Lawrie Wilson. I can't see how they could try that again.
Afternoon all, looking forward to a bit of a rest as PaddyP17 steps in. I believe it may be Lennons league debut for us...could be wrong...I am, he played at Doncaster when we lost 0-3.
I guessed Vaz Te, Lookman and Reza in the prediction thread. Also suggested shit or bust. So I'm happy with that. It's positive. But Solly? That could be the Achilles heel. I'd have played JC as right back.
8 home grown in the match day squad, and five of those starting. if we are going to do badly I would much rather it was our players rather than some disinterested loanee looking for an easy bit of dosh with scant commitment.
We have loads of pace up front, and if we can get a few 'breaks' we may just nick this, they don't score many (but today could be different I suppose) and i dont think have been behind in too many games this season

No good defending against a team as confident as Brighton go for it they can't score if we are attacking them positive management
Like it. Let's adapt the Colin style of management, but we'll need to hold that attack for 90 minutes plus added time. If we get caught on the counter once it may hurt us.
That seems a pretty strange line up, a 4-3-3 with Lookman/Vaz Te/Ghooch up top would make sense but I'm not sure where that would leave JBG. Huge responsibility on Diarra and Cousins to run the game for those guys.
I'd rather watch this team: Henderson, Solly, Lennon, Bauer, Fox, Kennedy, Cousins, Jackson, THD, Lookman, Ahearne-Grant.
If it's shit, then I'd rather it was (largely) OUR shit.
But still, the team today will at least test my typing: Ghoochannejhad to Makienok! He plays it in to Ahearne-Grant, who in turn feeds Gudmundsson, who plays in Holmes-Dennis... et cetera.

Have no concerns over Lennon being able to deal with Wilson and Zamora... We all remember how big and physical the Strikers in League One could be
good luck to lennon. tough game for him but sarr needed to be dropped after last week.
Big chance for Reza. I think he's too light weight for this league personally but this is a good test.
a start for Vaz te alongside lookman. hope a partnership can form.
come on you addicks! lets stop these seagulls mid-flight and send them crashing down to earth.

C'mon Charlton
backs to the wall but we get a 2- 2 draw. Vaz Te gets both

Gucci will kick lumps out of themblown over by a puff of wind.Similar to when Riga was here. Reality of managing a team in the Championship different from the data analysis on the lap top
