    Pratley dropped. Bielik back to CB. Taylor starts.

    Charlton manager Lee Bowyer has named the same line-up that beat Barnsley at The Valley a fortnight ago for today's game against Doncaster Rovers.

    He described that performance as the best since he took charge of the club with the Addicks winning 2-0.

    It means there is one change to the team that started in the club’s last league outing away to Rochdale as Ben Reeves replaces Darren Pratley, with Krystian Bielik expected to drop back into centre-half.

    If Charlton lineup as they did against Barnsley it would be in a diamond formation with Jed Steer in goal, a back four of Anfernee Dijksteel, Bielik, skipper Jason Pearce and Chris Solly. Josh Cullen played the holding role that day with Reeves and Joe Aribo ahead of him and Jamie Ward just behind Karlan Grant and Lyle Taylor.

    Full commentary of the game is available on Valley Pass from 2.45pm today.

    Charlton: Steer; Dijksteel, Bielik, Pearce (C), Solly; Cullen, Reeves, Aribo, Ward; Grant, Taylor

    Substitutes: Phillips, Sarr, Lapslie, Marshall, Pratley, Fosu, Vetokele

    Good attacking side with Bielik in his proper position and Reeves creativity - hope they get same result as against Barnsley...
  • Play like we did against Barnsley and we will win.

    Rather than tinkering with the team, Bowyer has picked the team that he says has put in the best performance.
    That day the team worked really hard for each other and defended as a unit.

    Back to basics.

  • Pissing little Hitlers at this place!!... Bring a bottle of coke into the Stadium every week but this time get new stewards who try to tell me I shouldnt have brought it in and told me and another bloke (had nothing more than a hot chocolate) to go stand by the gates to drink them before going to our seats

    Both of us simply ignored them yet f**ks me off at how pathetic some can be
  • Good team, really hope we’re not being short term with Taylor’s fitness though. He’s too important to gamble with like we did with Page.

    Makes you wonder if the plan is to get Taylor through today and Tuesday where he can then maybe have two weeks off to recover from his stomach issues

    Has probably been called up by Montserrat yet nothing to stop him from doing what Jamie Ward did last International break

    Perhaps he is just sick to the stomach with the way they have been playing :smiley:

    Or he's just sick of the Goalkeepers saving his penalties

    Yeah M25 is fucked because of two tunnels being closed due to emergency repairs meaning everyone is heading up to Blackwall... took me 1hr 30mins to get up from Rochester today because of it all, is a shame of the times as past years they'd have gotten the KO put back
