Fosu is so much better than Marshall or Reeves it isn't funny
He's been relatively quiet but he's had two absolutely brilliant ones, one that almost resulted in an own goal (then we scored from the corner), and one where Reeves for some reason didn't either shoot or take a touch.
Sort of an alright half. We had a real let off when they got in behind Marshall, who was playing level with the back four, and Solly, and then pulled it back but shot straight at Amos. We've played the better football. Kashi and JFC getting stuck in. Bauer and Konsa winning a lot of their battles. Reeves desperately disappointing. He has the tools to be a real difference maker at this level, and he works hard off the ball, but his two golden opportunities to make a real difference in the final third and he's fluffed his lines.
Also, I worry that Solly is carrying a knock. He's looked desperately off the pace at times. Marshall and Konsa have had to cover for him.
The pitch is shit and they lump it forward a lot so we desperately need a second goal. Hopefully we get the ball down on the deck and play it around more in this half.
And, as ever, persistent fouling is unfortunately not a bookable offense in this league.
52' Fosu puts Reeves in on goal but the Addicks' number 12 is flagged offside. 1-0. #cafc
Close that. Fosu delays like half a second and it lets the defenders step up. When they play that high line we can get in behind them. We just need to have the patience
