Russell Slade is clearly a 442 man. Could play Foley as RW to narrow the pitch when they get the ball and provide more defensive solidity. Bauer should come in now. Lookman is best, as has been said already, in central areas, getting shots away, so a free role in behind the striker would suit him well. Ajose should be dropped, may give him a wake up call. My guess would be:
Even this early in the season this is a six pointer. We cannot afford to lose this one and go 10 points behind scunny. Its always hard to know whether Charlton are going to turn up or not this season. We didnt away to Bury or Fleetwood but a win here would show the league that we are real contenders and I am hoping for a fired up reaction to put things right after Saturday. Surprise 2-1 to us.

I hope you are right which is what I'll be going to the game with more than expectation.
I suspect a typical charlton result after losing a game they would have been expected to win they will go out and win a game the form book says they should lose. 1-0 to the Addicks
Don't get the 'back on track' notion. Based on Saturday the only track we can hope for is mid table at best. No midfield, leaky defence and a limp attack. Can't win promotion with two wingers and eight centre backs.
Bauer has to come in for Konsa, to give the kid a rest if nothing else. Still won't be enough, though, unless something miraculous happens in midfield. Therefore, a 3-1 defeat beckons, although we may be lucky to get 0.

We have to get a result here, a loss and 1 point in 9 could quickly become 1 in 12 on Saturday and begin to look very worrying. I'll say 1-1, Lookman.
3-1 defeat
Such situations rarely work well for us
Meire might be in there!
However we can't defend, we allow teams easy crosses, sadly think it could be a comfortable home win 3-0 but really hope I'm wrong.

Just lumped a tenner on us to win...
I'm confident there will be changes. Bauer for Konsa and Novak for Ajose as a minimum.
