What a load of moaning whingers we have as so called fans, it was an excellent performance, defence solid as a rock, great battling performance, two great goals, Andersen and Ayew fantastic, Ayew was brilliant for the first goal, yes, we need a RB and a CF, but with Ayew, Eze and Olise back fully fit soon, i think the 10th place we are in will improve dramaticly, yes,10th, FFS you would think we were bottom three by some of the comments.

What I liked about both goals was the speed of play and finish. Both assists were top drawer.
Ayew. If he could only dummy and turn like that more often and cross with such high speed accuracy he would be our best player. He gets better every game.
Eze. Only he can do what he did. In one so simple piece of magic set young Mitchell up for a cracking finish.

I'm wondering if you and Lanzo go to the matches or just watch the 3 minute highlights on YouTube? Those highlights made us look decent, restricting them to a few half chances and we were clinical on the break.
What that doesn't show is how us fans endured us camped in our box for around 70 minutes, hardly got into the their half and when we did we couldn't get three passes together.
Talk of league position also not relevant. We might flit between 8th and 14th, breaking top 7 for Europe is just too tall an order (would love to br proved wrong on that).
No one is moaning, more a comment on how given we've been 10 seasons in the prem it would be nice not let us see promoted teams dominate us all game. Before any starts going on about Charlton, Curbishley and Europe etc I'm not asking for that, just to play more in their half and have some attacking impetus.
Surely now that's also got to be the end for Ward. They got down his side every time. Wondering if he was only made captain because we were guaranteed that Guehi and Andersen were going to stay in the summer. Problem is now Roy feels compelled to play him. How can he after yesterday's performance? Wingers just have him on toast now.

15 points from 11 games with the attacking tools at our disposal is mind blowing, just mind blowing.

But it's not beautiful enough.

We really are peak Charlton.

If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities.

Credit due there on those ones. However they also bought Riedewald, Marange, Sorloth, Mutch, Mandanda and many other deadwood players. We also paid significantly for those, except Johnstone as he was initially just back up for Guaita.
They're supposed to be finding the gems like Koloeosho (2.6m) plus any Brighton player you want to pick under 6m.
Also the same scouting department that thought we should spend 20m on a goalkeeper when a decent right back like Timothy Castagne was available for 17m.

Sorry old chap, but I have to disagree with you. Ward has been very strong for us this season so far. OK, he's a tad off the pace now and he scored an unfortunate OG last week, but he's saved far more with decent positioning and tackles. A stalwart for the club.

Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.
