Charlton did a number on us Hughton style. Was inevitable from minute one. For all our possession we were lacking someone who could create a chance for themselves. This is a worry as redmonds crossing is inconsistent (but better last night with 3-4 good ones out of 10) so we can't rely on the odd few that are good crosses. Grabban is not going to be good enough for full season as starting striker and I hope hooper pulls his finger out soon as he will create chances himself
Jerome was bossed by bikey, a real battle for him. Wishes he'd not kept feigning injury from flailing arms. 3 times in one game is embarrassing.
Charlton are a very good defensive unit and many teams will be done by them in the same way.
Turner looked great all match
Subs were too late and tettey should have stayed on.
All in all great possession football and we played pretty well, but it's what you do with it that counts. Forget that one and move on to Saturday.
How on earth we didn't get a pen?! Bloody ridiculous reffing.
