After taking a seat on the substitute’s bench for much of the season so far, Charlton forward Jason Euell reminded Addicks fans of his capabilities by scoring the second goal in Saturday’s FA Cup victory over Carlisle.
Euell, now into his second spell with the South Londoners, has admitted that ever since he returned to the Addicks he has witnessed something special in the evolution of the League One leaders since his departure five years ago. He said, “I noticed it from the day I joined, initially in training.”Euell, whose strike on Saturday was his 39th in a Charlton shirt added, “I saw the potential it had with all the new players, and seeing it gelling straight away with the quality.”
The former Wimbledon and Middlesbrough striker turns 35 in February making him one of the older members of a star-studded squad and Euell acknowledges that he’s now one of the older heads for the younger players to turn to – as much as it pains him to admit it. He continued, “I suppose you’re going to be there at some point of your career, and I’ve been lucky enough to carry on playing at the age I am.”
He concluded, “We’re in it together, and we just want to take it day-by-day and each game as it comes.”
