FT: CHARLTON 2 - 2 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

[LeningradCowboy]

NML is gassed.

Gave that away way too easily.

He has been ****ing lazy today.

[Freitag 4.17]

What the **** was pack doing just standing there? lazy ****!

[WJ99mobile]

How did we keep so many clean sheets in the prem?

[Maurice Swan]

buggar........talk about being clinical and taking chances......no way now......which is a shame because we HAVE played a lot better.

[Zowhore]

Bruno Manga

[Baloo]

NML is gassed.

Gave that away way too easily.

He’s had some decent moments. But there’s been a couple of times when he’s lost the ball and made no attempt to win it back again.

[MacAdder]

Also this

Murphy. You're joking right?

[StraightOuttaCanton]

He switched NML and Hoilett. Wasn’t necessary.

[Don Corleone]

How did we keep so many clean sheets in the prem?

Because we didn’t have Aden Flint playing centre half - he’s a real liability

[The Bob Banker Spanker]

Charlton have defended well and broke on us with pace whilst taking their chances.
Game over now, no chance were coming back.

[City123]

Lockyer was 16 and Oshilaja showed nothing to suggest he would reach this level. He’s only improved since he played regular games at a lower level.

Just pointing out some of the strange decisions that the club have made over time, Oshilaja was playing League 1 football at 22, so its hardly impossible to see him making the step up as he has

Lockyer on the other hand was released for being "too small" and is now a full international heading to a major tournament. Considering how long we kept some players on for its bizarre that Lockyer was released at 16

[Llandaff Blue]

I hope Murphy is reborn under Harris cause I’d gladly take never seeing NML start for us again

[Cyclops]

Second Charlton goal a sucker punch.

Would that have happened under Warlock?

[Shute]

Our players don't look like they want the ball now. This is a big concern.

[WJ99mobile]

This team just does not work

[Don Corleone]

Bear in mind this is a Charlton side ravaged by injuries and without a win in their last 4 games , yet when they break our back 4 make them look like world beaters!

[Michael Morris]

HT 2 - 0

[City123]

Second Charlton goal a sucker punch.

Would that have happened under Warlock?

Probably, we haven't won away this season

[Trigger]

We haven't been awful but there is such a lack of pace through the team that these counter attacks look far more dangerous than they need be. When we get the chance to break its just not at enough speed.

Noticeable thing for me this season is how weak we have become, I remember us physically shrugging players off the ball. This is now happening to us all too often.

Yep we're shit.. a different kind of shit today but shit none the less.

[LeningradCowboy]

No cutting edge in attack. Woeful lack of pace in defence.

Same old, same old.

[Former Labour leader]

Lack of pace in midfield and defence our problem. This is no more than an average Charlton side. Relegation now more possible than promotion.

[WJ99mobile]

Don’t think the Shit ref is helping that. Every time we challenge it’s a foul, every time they foul us he doesn’t give anything.

[RonnieBird]

This new attractive style is working well isn't it ?
I'm genuinely sorry to be so sarcastic but I saw this coming with all the naive critisism of Warnockball. I've still got confidence in the new manager and the players , and in time he'll get things going, but I think that's going to take quite a long time.
Whoever took over there'd have been a slide back during the introduction of a new style , and this is what I was warning of, but it had to happen some time. I tend to think it'll take 18 months but I hope I'm wrong

[Optimistic Nick]

What does flint think he's supposed to be doing for the first?

[A Quiet Monkfish]

We've lost Bamba, Morrison and Manga - that's going to have a huge effect, especially Bamba's organizing etc., and yes their quick counter attacks are only quick in the sense that we are ponderously slow.

[IanD]

Dire today. Really missing Manga in defence. We are too slow, only have one tactic and fans are, not suprisingly, quiet.

[dembethewarrior]

Bruno Manga

Wouldn’t believe it if you heard the big ginger bloke in the family stand who sat behind me by a few rows, slagged Manga off for breathing

Thank **** I don’t have to listen to him anymore.

[Des Parrot]

I'm surprised at the positiveness of some of the comments above, looks like a Warnock side, plays like a Warnock side & concedes like a Warnock side. Get rid of playing two wingers, Paterson invisible and Hoilett atrocious, hit it 1st time FFS you don't need the first touch.

Middle of the park has a big welcome sign!

Knock it down & rebuild it.

Had enough transfer windows to address that too didn’t he “Sir Neil”.
