I recall being heavily mocked when I said I'd be ambivalent about signing Famewo due to his shoddy use of the ball.
I wonder what the stats are on culpability for aimless hoofing to Stockley...
agreed .. I wrote on another post that 'he is not all that' . and that is a mild criticism .. he's overweight, slow, his positioning is terrible and his passing is woeful .. it was posted (elsewhere on here that a condition of his loan from Norwich is that if fit, he plays in the first team .. IF that is so, and who knows whether or not it is, the sooner we send him back to Canary Land, the better .. in fact, send him back anyway

Wouldn't go that far. He's a decent enough defender. But his use of the ball is catastrophic and I'd certainly give him a game or two off. When Jason Pearce is a more progressive ball-playing option than you...
If he's not signed permanently by the time the Cup match is played & Norwich refuse to let him play for us, I think many of his detractors will be eating their words.....

Another player really benefitting from the JJ effect. A far more leaner, sharper, confident defender than the one I saw at Lincoln earlier in the season.
I'm not convinced that we can get him permanently in January as there has been no real material change of circumstances since we tried in the summer. Hope I'm wrong...

We got him on loan with option to buy. Obviously I could be wrong, but my assumption is that it was a decision based on his fitness.

I thought that gallen said he tried to do a permanent deal last summer but there is an option to buy subject to certain agreements. My assumption is therefore that the division we are in, and norwich to a lesser extent, is perhaps key here. On that basis we are unlikely to see any movement until the end of the season.
But let's hope you are correct Dazzler as your assumption certainly makes it much more straight forwards.

But may just boil down to what the player wants and how he sees the next step in his career?
If he's happy here, feels he belongs and enjoying his football; if he's part of an upward curve and a team going places ...... then at just 23, he may feel Charlton right now is the best place for him.
Some parts of his play are way too good for this level
Other parts of his play aren't though, which is why we were able to get him back. A couple of time in the first half he was a bit casual and got caught out badly, but was much better in the second half

100% :-)

Edit - To be fair, Pearce's wasn't much better at 68%. Bad day for them both
One thing I want to say about Famewo....how strong he is and an upper body strength few can match when seeing the ball out.

If Naby Sarr did that certain people on here (@Leuth) would be creaming their knickers all over again!
