'Those three shouldn't have played'

Charlton Athletic boss Nathan Jones has praised Lloyd Jones, James Bree and Kayne Ramsey for playing against Wrexham despite not being fully fit.

All three players featured in the 1-0 defeat, even though Bree has been nursing a groin problem and both Jones and Ramsey were ill in the days before the match.

It was the injury-hit Addicks' first loss in five games.

"Lloyd, Bree and Kayne Ramsey in a normal world wouldn't have played because of illness and injury," Jones told BBC Radio London.

"They've gone through the barrier for the club. Not everyone does that, but they have. I'm proud of the group for what they've given me."

Bree's set-piece delivery has been an asset for Charlton but he is so restricted by his injury that he currently cannot take them.

"Those three shouldn't have played," Jones explained.

"Bree can't take a set-play - he's one of the best in the league at set-plays and he can't take one because of his groin, but he's playing through the injury.

"Lloyd and Kayne both had illness for the past two or three days but have absolutely put in a shift, and that's the group we have."
