Sorry to be the ugly American. No apology required. I for one appreciate you coming on and giving us a different perspective. It is easy for Canadian fans to have the blinders on about our own. I enjoy hearing your take on our players. LeoH037 1 Link to post Share on other sites
One American 372 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Yeah, but it's like 35. And he has 2 goals. Link to post Share on other sites

I agree that production for Millar is overdue, but I agree with @dyslexic nam too. It's 1 game in. Let's see where he is at 5 games in, 10 games in, etc. I have a good feeling about this loan. I wouldn't be surprised to see him score 4 or 5 goals in this half season loan. For me that's a reasonable target. Obviously we are wanting more and I am sure he is as well. Let's see what happens. I missed the match but it sounds like he's off to a positive start. The fact he started the match is very encouraging too!

Dominic94 1,287 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Listen I want to show he’s a PL/Championship level player, if he does that does that now I’ll be thrilled. I’m sure he would do, 1 step at a time when it comes to where he’s playing. Link to post Share on other sites
jordan 3,577 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 The left side was the wild side today, great debut, nice to see him do well, while the right mid kept taking on the left back and couldn’t get a cross through.Also enjoyed his vision moving the ball across the field. He will keep building from here and already looks in a better place to develop. bfque8 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Bdog 928 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 He hit a couple of nice lobbed through balls in the first half. Also created the most opportunities, he’s pretty good at cutting in and getting a shot off. My one criticism would be losing the ball a few times trying to beat his man but at least they weren’t in bad spots, I don’t mind Canadian players being direct. I think there will be a pressure to get a respectable amount of goals/assists though. Link to post Share on other sites

I think there will be a pressure to get a respectable amount of goals/assists though. I didn’t get a chance to watch much but in the little I did see, I noticed this as well. We’ve heard that he was brought in to take on players off the dribble though, so it seems like he’s doing what he is told. I’m sure he’ll learn when the time is right to try to beat his man and when the time is right to pass to the open man. He hasn’t exactly had much time to learn the team’s systems and what’s expected of him yet. Link to post Share on other sites
El Diego 1,029 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Another start for Liam, this time against Rochdale who are in the relegation zone. Game not on DAZN unfortunately. Link to post Share on other sites

Shway 3,777 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 He’s been causing problems all game, just had a brilliant run and put it on a platter for Aneke to get his third, but he didn’t finish. Still 4-4 johnyb 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Floortom 1,740 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Seems to have received mixed reviews on the Charlton forum but overall would average out to solid. So two decent performances in a row at least. It’s clear he’s not out of place but hopefully he can pick it up beyond that. Shway and johnyb 2 Link to post Share on other sites
spitfire 3,548 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 (edited) Two starts in two games goes 90 mins today in a crazy game 4-4. Rochdale, had 4 shots in the first half all 4 went in... he is still trying to find his feet. He’s had a total of 4 training sessions so far with his new team. He will improve but has done really well so far. A constant threat down the left side. Combined well down the left with the left back grew into the game and made a crazy 60 yard run that should have ended up in a goal and and assist for Liam. The team needs to improve defensively (missing some big players atm) to win games but this is good for Liam. Really good a really challenge in men’s football pushing him to improve. Has a 6.7 and a 6.9 rating so far very happy with the loan so far... most fans think he was one of the better players a winger taking players on will always split the vote... https://forum.charltonlife.com/discussion/90846/players-marks-charlton-v-rochdale-closes-wednesday-tea-time/p2 Edited January 12 by spitfire gator, Strait Red, Shortdutchcanuck and 14 others 14 3 Link to post Share on other sites
