Charlton v Bristol City - Match Thread

hoof_it_up_to_benty

Hard to describe how bad we are - Bergdich is beyond dreadful.
We look keen to concede penalties....
Can't get worse?

!st away goal for City in 5 games

Dizzle

We are crying out for some creativity in the middle. Desperately.

But we've known this for ages....

What a load of shit!
Boring, clueless, no shape, no invention.
Henderson should have saved the penalty.
Going down.

Don't lose faith, folks. We'll throw on all the quality on the bench now.

Shame they got their pen when the Banners were out, ruined the moment.

When we attack, we go down flanks and become static. Cross the ball where necessary. No one nursing through middle, showing in the middle just outside their box to try and make something. Instead we are predictable. Totally different from last week. Last week we veered creative.

At match. Team flat. Crowd flat. Lookman and Mak not working. Bristol well organised but limited. Dreadful 1st half. Surely 2nd half can't be worse.

We'd be better throwing on the bench itself.

Last week we were playing Rotherham though.

Need to get Harriot on second half.

Fucking shit, Lookman may be young but he has done sod all the entire half, maybe he has swapped bodies with Ahearne-Grant for the day?

Bergdich losing the ball in dangerous areas, Cousins too deep, Jackson playing stupid balls too quickly, Gudmundsson poor, Makienok winning headers for no one, Solly and Fox not getting forwards quickly or often enough, Teixeria and Lennon caught out by the wind once or twice already, Henderson should have got his hand to the penalty better.

All in all a boring half with nothing going right.

Need to take off Lookman or Bergdich for someone, probably Reza or Harriott at the moment, id probably take Bergdich off for Reza and stick Lookman on the left

Like the look of the starting 11, subs looking weak though

Only Reza on bench for strikers

Yeah im not sure Reza is the right man to bring on if were 1-0 down to grab us a goal

We'll see

I think we are trying to play 4-3-3 and it isn't working. Let's keep it simple please.

Southbank

Not one effort on goal in the 45. No wingers and no creative midfielder.

Yanntheman

Cousins had a good half, hopefully some others will join him after the restart

At the Valley
We are utter rubbish, all 11 of them

46' Tactical switch for the Addicks as Bergdich moves to right wing. Lookman goes left and JBG no playing off Makienok. #cafc #CAFCLive

47'
Foul by Johnnie Jackson (Charlton Athletic).

48' Vital sliding tackle by Teixeira to break down City's counter attack. #cafc #CAFCLive

ross1

50' City have a free-kick in a dangerous position, to the right, just outside of the box... #cafc #CAFCLive

grumpyaddick

Oh God.

50' Freeman takes....but sends it well over the bar. #cafc #CAFCLive

soapy_jones

When are Charlton going to change the record?

Fecked off with this old shite. Sorry for the poor bstards who actually go! Bristol City must think they've been given the keys to the sweetshop today...

ross1

52' Chance as Bergdich breaks free on the right. But his shot is straight at Fielding. #cafc #CAFCLive

Hard not to feel there is something inevitable about the outcome of this game...
