For me he needs balls into him rather than being behind the front 2 he won’t bang worldies in his work is in and around the box plus who would you drop from midfield personally I think he will play dan & victor if Charles isn’t fit, I would like to see JDB & Charles together at some point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianofcleveleys Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Posh probably the hardest game to predict out of any, you never know what you're going to get from them. Could be 3-0 or 0-3. If Charles isn't fit I don't see where our goals will come from, bar a set piece or a blunder by them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted September 19, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted September 19, 2023 Don't see us keeping a clean sheet. Can we score more than 1 if Charles is injured? 1-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leyther_Matt Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Although Saturday was nowhere as big a kick as the Wigan game, I still reckon it’ll be at least Thursday evening before I have any enthusiasm for this game. Let’s hope Evatt can earn his corn and pick the team up much quicker than that. I’m going 1-0 Posh at the minute but that might improve by Friday.

If Charles isn't fit I don't see where our goals will come from, bar a set piece or a blunder by them If it helps, and this isn't a dig at Charles because these stats surprise me given how many Charles does score, but... Last season 17th Dec was the first time Charles scored a goal from open play in a game we won. Last time he scored a home league goal from open play was v FGR in January. Since then we've won a lot of home games and course he contributes even when not scoring, but we've had to rely on others to score, except the pen v Derby. Top home scorer since FGR is Vic with 5, then 2 each for Sheehan, Dempsey and OGs! 7 different defenders have scored 1 each. So maybe a myth we need Charles to score our goals, I'd agree for away games but not home, not that I can explain why that should be the case.

That's a different conversation - I'm not saying he isn't our best player, but the question was about who could score the goals and the evidence in 2023 is that we haven't relied on him. Its not like he's been doing loads of assists, off top of my head 2 headers from corners v Lincoln, tap in's v Fleetwood for Vic from winger's crosses? Have we scored any of our goals without Jones, Dempsey, Sheehan, Santos, Vic, JDC, Williams on the pitch too? They have all started every game and we haven't scored our goals late after subs have been made, generally. I want Charles to be fit as much as anyone, I just thought the stats were surprising and offer hope that we can find other ways to score.
