  • It depends if Hylton told Bree to go near post for set pieces today part of the responsibility falls on him if Bree genuinely just couldn’t hit a decent cross to implement his ideas Hylton can’t get the blame. Jones was saying Hylton was responsible for the set piece at Hull so shows he can somewhat do the job 
  • That second half sequence of short corners was atrocious. Needs to rethink his game plan

    Hylton won’t be telling Bree to hit the first man. I don’t think we can put this entirely down to Hylton not being as good as Brayne.
    Granted he’s not orchestrating that, but he will be controlling the fact we have a random player always taking up a weird offside position whilst we constantly lump it to the back post 
    That works if the delivery is correct to the back post, then the offside player is in a great position for the header back across. 

    TC did this against Coventry, ball dropped to him and we scored. It’s a common tactic, even in open play. Have seen Harry Kane do it, stand offside so you’re unmarked, and then when the ball goes wide in behind you are onside as behind the ball and unmarked to score

    Hylton is clearly not the problem, our set pieces have been fine this season. We’ve scored the 3rd most from them in the league this season. Defensively as well we are good at them, conceding the 4th least in the league. Based on goals for and against from set pieces us and Millwall are probably the 2 standout teams in the league 

    Today the problem was blatantly obvious, the set piece taker

    My sons u13 team takes better corners (short and long) than we managed today. Woeful organisation.  
    My old Reliant Robin takes better corners than we saw today.

    The weird thing thing was apters corners against Oxford were pretty good. Why did he not take control of the situation and demand to take them when on?  He could see they had been useless for the rest of the match. Either a lack of personal ownership or they are all shit scared to go against Nathan’s game plan (I assume the latter). Having total and utter control of all footballing matters (as Nathan now does) is great, until it starts to fall apart.

    Pretty sure he did, he took at least one free kick

    He did, after Carey had shown he was as bad as Bree. Apter then followed suit.

    The short corner to Apter where it was clear he would be on the wrong foot was one of the most obviously stupid things I've seen Charlton do

    Bree was brilliant in terms of delivery when he joined us. Lately any of us could probably do better. I mean yesterday he couldn't lift the ball (and in other recent games). Not sure how that is Hylton's fault in any way.

  • He’s got to be carrying an injury, as mentioned above, his drop off in performance is incredible.

    No trust me he did.
    I have it on good authority Hylton said to Breen "every time we get a corner can you £$%$ it up and make sure you don't get it past the first defender".
