Half time thoughts

Strange half in the sense that we scored two good chances early on.

Don't know if anyone is to blame for their goal, looked a great pass from Canton.

Don't think we're playing that well so hope we improve slightly in the second half.

But good to be in the lead, a third should kill it off. Should have got another before half time.

Referee been poor I think.

Blame was to player not letting a difficult ball go out play! Instead he passed to their player who had free run down middle (our acchilles heal) 99% of goals conceded are our mistakes. From bad decision making

Bagan switched off but we are playing really well hope the missed chances don’t cost us .Next goal really important now if we score we will get another the way we are attacking :clap:

The linking up between Moylan and Salech around the penalty area has been superb

Again the issue for me is we have left a couple of goals out there we should be 4-1 up we miss way to many sitters and normally pay the price , let's hope today isn't the same

Yes ball was poor thats why ng should left it go out touch but by playing it he was out of position and they went in to the space left to score...

At the game. Feel like we’ve dominated. Colwill, Moylan and Robertson running the show.

Should be 4-1 up.

Lawyer to come on second half will provide us some go forward out of defence, although Bielek has done a good job of this. Look a bit suspect down the right a few times with NG off with head injuries.

As I say could easily be 4-1 up and probably should, a superb save from their keeper. Lots more goals in us. Charlton has a big lad up front but Bielek has dealt with him well.

Would like to see us score from a corner or cross.

Referee has been poor.

Salech missed 2 sitters & scored with the hardest chance.

For the one keeper saved only thing did wrong was not to hit it harder but did everything else right? But why didn't city player shoot with only keeper to beat? Even if saves it chances are salech gets rebound or one that shoots does i feel just a wrong decision to pass to salech.

Watching on the Charlton TV club stream they said we are the best team they have played this season for attacking more impressive than West Ham. Pity Salech couldnt convert the chance at 2-1 he tried to be too precise if we can tighten up defence in the 2nd half Charlton are there for the taking. Moylan been superb Joel off the boil and Robertson on a yellow might force BBM into a half time sub

We have the highest expected goals in the championship, and we should with a bit more clinical finishing, be higher
