Match Thread: Charlton Athletic vs Reading | Saturday 21st October 2023 - 3pm KO

I'm deputising today as @eastterrace6168 is having a family day out at the Valley. Hopefully our players will be refreshed and energised by the International break, and we'll manage to avoid our recent first half malaise, but that remains to be seen. Aneke's starting again, Watson and Watson are preferred over Asiimwe and Fraser, and Camara is back on the bench, as is the new sub keeper Walker.

Charlton: Maynard-Brewer; T.Watson, Hector, Jones, Thomas; Dobson (c), L.Watson; Tedić, May, Blackett-Taylor, Aneke
Subs: Walker, Asiimwe, Ness, Camará, Fraser, T.Campbell, Leaburn

    Tesco is NOT a right winger - we have one of those on the bench 

    …and I’ll repeat, Aneke is much better as an impact sub

    No real complaints from me... Tedic on the right hasn't always worked, but its not been a complete disaster either - In Appleton we trust... Nice bench, hope we wont need to rely on them.

    I wonder what Man City (if they care) think about their centre forward who keeps playing on the wing?

    That is an absurdly stacked bench. I'll bet there's no other team in this league with that to call on in reserve, and that it isn't close

    Tedic is, indeed, an odd choice.

    I reckon this bench is the strongest we’ve ever fielded in a League 1 game. Plenty of ammunition to introduce later in the game.

    Telic hasn't impressed so far. Let's live in hope. Wide right?? No T Campbell surely! Has pace

    Hope Tedic isn’t on one of those “if he’s fit he has to play” loan contracts. 
    Is that really a thing? What manager would agree to that, unless he was signing Messi?!

    Adds height in both boxes, doesn't play as a conventional line-hugging winger, creates space for the unmarked overlapping full back.

    TC can come on later as Plan B and pose different problems to a tiring defence.

    Yeah, the bench is better than half our starting XI  :p

    Three home **unbeaten** in a row. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it.
    It was "broke" last home game until Aneke & Campbell came on.  

    Campbell should be on the right, not a striker. End of. 
    Exactly this

    Don't forget also that the bench can be considered as much of our starting X! for the last 30 minutes.

    The days of starting with your strongest X! and finishing with a couple of sub reserves are over.
    These days, it's a 100 minute game - and you need the team that finishes the match to be as strong as the team that started it.

    The Aneke debate has now moved onto the next chapter! Maybe we would have beaten Blackpool if he started the game, who knows.
