MATCH THREAD : Charlton Athletic V Leyton Orient : Saturday 17th August 2024 : KO 12:30
So following on from our impressive away win at Wigan Athletic last weekend, we will be looking to make it two wins from two league games on the spin, and after the narrow 0-1 loss to Birmingham City last Tuesday, which Nathan Jones described as an "excellent" performance, let's hope we are set for another three points on the board today.
We've faced off against Orient 54 times, winning 24, losing 20 and drawing the remaining 10, In our two encounters last season, both sides won their home game 1-0, us on the opening day, and the O’s on Boxing Day.
So let's see how we go today...
Luke Berry makes his full league debut in this afternoon’s game against Leyton Orient at The Valley, he starts in place of Karoy Anderson as Nathan Jones makes one change from the side that beat Wigan Athletic,
There is also a first place in a competitive squad for summer signing Matty Godden.
The Addicks are likely to start in the same 3-5-2 formation as last week with Alex Mitchell, Lloyd Jones, Macaulay Gillesphey in a back three.
Kayne Ramsay and Josh Edwards will operate as wing-backs while Berry joins Conor Coventry and skipper Greg Docherty in midfield behind a front two of Gassan Ahadme and Tyreece Campbell.
Charlton: Mannion; A Mitchell, Jones, Gillesphey; Ramsay, Berry, Coventry, Docherty, Edwards; Ahadme, Campbell
Subs: Maynard-Brewer, Watson, Small, Anderson, Kanu, Aneke, Godden

Berry comes in for Anderson, and Godden on the bench

Berry in for Anderson makes a lot of sense!5

Clare starts - Pratley and Jaiyesimi on the bench
Notice that Donley (Who JohnBoy mentioned had been signed on loan from Spurs) was signed in time.

Seen Reg, Zach and Tayo being put through their paces. They are not involved.
Makes me think Jones tells the players if they’re in shortly before the match.0 -

Spurs player Donley signed on loan yesterday straight in the team 😧
He’s a bloody striker too!1 -
3 strikers on the bench is a bit odd. Maybe Chuks will come on at 60 minutes, then be replaced by Godden at 80 minutes...3

We have decent strength in depth now. Just need to perform and score - football is simple hey!
Feel this is quite an important game for TC. 3 forwards sitting on the bench.0 -

Limp up front0

Watson, Edwards have played CB before and Ramsey in preseason, chucks as a 10 so some shuffling about can be done.
Tuning in poolside from Chinchón, so won't be much running commentary from me, you'll all be glad to hear.
Hope to see Godden get a decent run out towards the end.1 -
Berry/Doherty no Anderson .. questionable i m o .. trying to keep both his more 'senior' signings happy ?2
-
Hopefully Godden gets some minutes. Looking forward to seeing him in a Charlton shirt

Feels like there's a lot more people walking down to The Valley today than there was last season.
Start of season optimism? School holidays and nothing else to do? Loads of freebies given out?2 -

Just about the best line up we could have hoped for atm imho. Docherty back to his more regular b2b CM role and Berry in the CAM role. 👍2
