We weren’t up for it and that’s something I’ve not seen this season . I think we believed that we just had to turn up to collect the three points . Luton won the battle, in footballing cliche , they wanted it more . They weren’t brilliant but made the pitch seem small and took their chances. Their first goal was a cracker. We seem to play better as the underdogs which we will be Wednesday night . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remarkably, people were getting all contrary when it was suggested that some of our last 10 games last season were must-win, so you'll definitely be pulled up at this stage! I think it's a 'must-perform', irrespective of the result. We need to bounce back by showing our merits against a dangerous Charlton side. Otherwise the momentum will continue to swing the wrong way.

They’re one point above us and we’re at home, where we’re unbeaten since the opening day. personally I don’t think that makes us underdogs.

General Zod Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 For me Saturdays result shows how important it is to get as many of the injured players back and in contention. We looked tired and we need to have the option to freshen things up especially in midfield. Afobe is obviously a massive loss and is really impacting us as an attacking force. We just need to battle, keep picking up points and do all we can to stay in the mix until January and then get the right striker in to push on. I’ve been proud of how the team has coped with injuries so far and hoping Saturday was just an off day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just shambolic, looked like too many of them thought they just had to turn up to get a result. Worrying and, although many won't like it, LJ has to take shoulder some blame for allowing such a complacent approach and not changing things BEFORE inevitably going a goal down!

Probably long term he is our first choice being so young with so many years of improvement ahead of him. I'm assuming we will be trying to bring him in permanently at the end of the season.

Can't accept its a must win at this stage of the season. Two wins this week would be great, but I'd settle for 4 points if pushed. Charlton are going to be very difficult indeed.

Kingswoodactor Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 Would like us to try something like the below on Wednesday night. Think Pereira will start as Hunt has a bit of a knock... Back 4 would be good, in the sense of being more positive at home. Would like to see O'Dowda more centrally, like he's played for Ireland before. Bentley Pereira, Moore, Williams, Rowe Massengo Brownhill, O'Dowda Eliasson, Weimann Fammy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
