Was told today club still very confident we will get JRS, just needs to sign his palace contract and it will happen.
He must be a slow reader.....he's had the new contract for over a week how.
You live in your own little world don’t you?
As said above, he's a youngster who's not really broken through to the first team, not bloody Mo Salah. He should be signing an improved contract without haste & getting on with his life.
I couldn't give two shits if the lad signs it or not, but its holding up OUR plans for OUR season.
I’m hoping the likes of jfc and gilbey have got the message and move on - goal scorer needed anc we need to throw everything at it
What message? That a load of people on a forum are suggesting they go to Orient, Wimbledon or Gillingham?
We are going to use 4 CMs every game, maybe 5 in most. To only have 5 would be as silly as having 7. If they aren't happy that's a different matter but I would be supprised if both went and we didn't bring someone else in.
Because we have lots of CMs we've tended to stick several on the bench, but that won't necessarily be the case going forward. I'd imagine we'd prefer to sub the front 3 to get fresh legs in attack, and one of the full backs too, if they've been running up and down the flank a lot.

Indeed, so we either wait for the young lad or look for the next option.
Nothing quiet says the internet then people coming to a conclusion and shitting on a kid over something they literally have no idea or knowledge about.

5 CM's would be a huge risk though, only an injury or two away from being in real trouble. 6 is sufficient, especially with the likes of Henry and Clare as cover. I do think JFC is the one that will go.

If your playing 3 you want 6 in the squad though don't you? 2 for each position?
5 subs changes it some what. But if your in the 6 you would fancy yourself to be in the 18 more often than not.
I think 5 CMs would be ok, especially as we have Clare and Henry as cover. And if we end up playing more of a 4-2-3-1 then you can even include Aneke and DJ as options to play as the attacking midfielder. If we need 2 out to get 3/4 in then the risk of only having 5 CMs is worth it

Are you really a financial advisor?
Are you really suggesting a young kid with a likely life changing contract should not bother reading/negotiating but just sign and get on with it?
Maybe he just hates Palace and doesn't want to commit long term, I could see the logic in that!

I don't. Although if Gilbey is the 6th choice then I wouldn't be massively fussed. Ideally we'd keep Dobson, McGrandles, Fraser, Payne, Morgan and JFC.

Ideally yes. But it sounds like we might not be able to bring in the 3/4 we need unless we move some players on. Getting left back, CB, winger and striker covered is more important than a 6th central midfielder staying. Hopefully we can keep JFC, lose Gilbey and bring in what we need

I'd probably just about agree with that but I can't see us signing 4 anyway. We'll sign one defender and one attacking player.
Will the end of the Charlton summer transfer window explode in a cacophony of riotous abandonment, greased by copious amounts of money splashed by our saviour and Brentish benefactor... OR, go off like a rather disapointing wet fart reverberating around the undercrackers of footballing lower league irrelevance?

I really don't want Henry being 6th choice because he will end up being an unused sub or left out of the 18 on the day having travelled etc and end up not playing for the 1st team or the U21s.
If he does well enough in training etc to force his way into the 18, that's different.

Agreed. When Egbo is back, Clare will be free to play in midfield if needed. Sessegnon can play RB also, indeed he's probably more comfortable there, plus he can play in midfield also.

yes and somebody's' else in is what i'm hoping for - not just a striker
Longer the transfer saga drags on, the more expectation he's gonna come with
If he doesn't hit the ground running, then there will be instant comments of: "What was the fuss about"
I mean just look at the reaction that O'Connell has had after just two games.
Agree with Golfie, what is the hold up, sounds like the lad is being poorly advised when he should focus on his Football... Rather than his bank balance, if he's good enough (and has that opinion himself), then that should take of itself later down the line.
we need tried and tested up top - if we sign this kid it needs to be as well as or we are going nowhere this year

Whats Tamar Hemed up to... He was tried and tested in the Championship
We say we have too many midfielders but we get a few injuries and we don't have to do the usual Charlton thing of playing a ridiculously weakened side. Even when we won promotion under Bowyer I recall going to Oxford with a few players out and knowing we were going to lose. Every game and every point needs respect.

Tomer Hemed has been smashing up the A League since leaving us. Plus his Mrs is awesome. (Shunit Faragi)

he was tried and tested but past his best - i think we need to treat miles leaburn and chucks as bit parts - however good their cameos can be - even taking the fatc taht he has little mobility out of the equation, that leaves stockley playing every game every week - we cannot start an 18 year old kid instead - i just don't see it unless we play 2 up top.
