Pleased to see Bogle score but I’m not sure he’s a footballer. There was one point where Gilbey picked it up in midfield but instead of running away from him towards the Ipswich goal in the hope of a pass, Bogle instead ran towards Gilbey.
Morgan, Watson, Smyth, Aneke all top class today I thought. Hope Smyth injury not too bad. Good to see Bogle score and thought it was a tough one so should give him confidence.
That’s more like it! A very good three points and an important clean sheet after the aberrations at Burton.
Defence very solid. We cut out all the fannying around passing sideways around the back five. Mixed up the style a bit, with some long balls up to Chuks but also some good passing and movement between the lines with a mobile midfield. Very pleased to see Bogle get his goal. I think Watson and Jonny had their best games of the season. Also nice to see Purrington do well when he came on. Albie again very impressive and capped a very good performance with a well deserved goal.
Roll on Wednesday, and hope I’m lucky enough to be given my first opportunity to see Charlton in the Sandgaard era.
That was so much better than Tuesday, Aneke is just a beast and played really well, he had their defence worried all game, then off goes Smyth and on comes beast number 2 and he scores with virtually his first touch. Watson got better as the game went on and it's his best game for us so far I think. Albie run his socks off and what a wonderful goal, Pratley still worries me at the back, but hoepfully Pearce and Akin will be back soon. Purrington was excellent when he came on, he'll play Wednesday with Marsteen serving a ban. Overall a 7/10 performance and we have some excellent players to come back into the side in the near future. In 3rd with a game in hand.....that'll do nicely.....what's not to like??
Edit-: a mention for Williams as well, his best game recently as well, think that's his best position.
Much more a typical Charlton performance under LB.
Deserved win and a very professional performance. Albie Morgan MOM for me.
Thank Heavens we stopped trying to play it out from the back like the other night and at Gillingham. It might not be so pretty but we should stop pretending our players have the class of those at Man City to play that way.
Hope Smyth is not too badly injured. But I will say again, this lad shouldn't ne playing as one of the front two. He hasn't got the stature to do it, or the natural goalscoring instinct.
Bogle looked "delighted" after scoring. Not.
Maybe the booking Maatsen got will be a blessing in disguise. He needs to have a bit of a reset.
Ipswich were very poor. Looks as though a lot of their fans want Lambert out and someone like Cowley in. If that happens you can see them picking up, although I never threatened and would be surprised if they finish top 6.
Went back to basics a little bit today and it worked a treat. Watson and Morgan dominated the midfield, assisted by the tidy Shinnie and Williams showes some decent glimpses. Aneke wasn't great but still a threat. Smyth also a threat but his final ball is poor (very spongefoot at times).
Thought Maatsen was probably about our worst player (not particularly terrible) and I think the booking gives him a well earned rest. Purrington is arguably the best back up LB in the League so will do fine.
Smyth's injury could leave us short up front, need to get through December and get one in January. Hopefully was just a knock for Washington and he's back in the week. I wouldn't be against either Ghandour or Wassim being in the squad though.

We've all got to be happy with that ....... eh, Golfie?

I bet Ipswich wish they'd now kept the re-arranged date for 22nd December.

Still, good to build some confidence against a side that will no doubt be right up there.
Watson was solid and I thought Pratley did well after last week's debacle.
At some point soon we are going to have to give Pratley a rest because, if we don't, he's going to be a spent force by Christmas.
Just need to keep picking up points.
Chucks superb tackle fir the first goal
Amos top quality save at 1-0.
Bogle getting off the mark, after the last game which must have been one of the low points of his career, could be massive for our season
Felt sorry for Williams being taken off so early thought he did well today.
Watson looked better but Alfie my MOM today.
