Match Thread [+post match p.17]: Charlton vs Norwich | FA Cup 3rd Round | Sun 9th January 2022, 2pm

Oggy Red

Cup day at The Valley! (writes your correspondent @Oggy Rouge, from muggy Marseille).

Struggling Prem side Norwich are our potential scalp today.  "I'm relishing the challenge", says Jacko. “We’ll be taking it very seriously and hoping to try and cause an upset to get into the fourth round as well". 

What sort of a team will we put out? Jayden Stockley hasn't trained, so he's missing
as is Famewo, who is mother-club tied. Everyone else seems fit but no doubt a chance for a couple of squad players.

Charlton: Henderson; Clare, Pearce (c), Inniss; Jaiyesimi, Gilbey, Dobson, Lee, Purrington; Leko, Burstow

Subs: MacGillivray, Gunter, Matthews, Souaré, Watson, Morgan, Blackett-Taylor, Kirk, Davison

Ben Jay will be leading the team out today.

COYR!

Jorja Fox set for Charlton debut today!

Looks like a strong side with Burstow I imagine being favoured for his pace over Davison with counter attacks. 

SouthWest_Addicks

No Washington or Stockley. Big opportunity for Burstow today.

ForeverAddickted

No Conor Washington today? - Says a lot that Burstow starts over Davison, sadly for the latter think its the right decision. 

Callumcafc

A decent Norwich side.

Probably thinks that we wont score with Leko and Burstow up front - Seeing they're our Strikers for the game, and no other position can score.

Sargent has fallen behind him in the pecking order it seems.

I've been saying for months & months about how light we are up front & our dreadful summer transfer policy will come to bite us.

And here it is.

A deserved selection. We'll done Mason.

Now grab it with both hands!

We'll have a different attacking gameplan.

Oh pipe down will you. In the summer we were building a team to play one up front.

The desire to be able to say "Told you so" on here from grown men is bloody pathetic.

Dont pretend as though your some tactical genius - You had a 50/50 chance of getting it right.

Why oh why do we continually have so many injuries. It does my head in

Any team with their two main strikers injured is going to look light up front. As far as I can see we have enough to still play two up front with one on the bench. That’s five striker options in the squad. How many did you want?
