Some Charlton Athletic fans have flocked to a tweet that was recently posted by Addicks-focused Twitter account @100PercentCafc which asks Charlton fans to rate Jonathan Leko’s time at the club this season out of 10.
Leko joined the Addicks on loan from their fellow Championship competitors West Brom in August 2019. The 21-year-old attacker made a total of 21 Championship appearances for the Addicks before his time at The Valley came to an end in January.
This post about Leko has drawn some mixed reactions from Charlton fans. Many of the Addicks supporters who have been responding to this post have acknowledged Leko’s talent, while also admitting that the young attacker does still have some areas of improvement in his game, with one Addicks fan describing him as an “infuriating” player to watch.

It was a #wba supporter who told me. “One minute he is as good as Messi the next minute you wonder how is he actually a professional footballer” A real talent in the making in my opinion. At least an 8 #cafc

7 – 100% effort, some hood goals and assists. Still working on his game but a young lad still

7 – frustrating end product but gave us genuine pace & unpredictably

Did Jonathan Leko improve during his time at Charlton Athletic?YES, HE GOT BETTER
NO, HE DIDN'T IMPROVE

6/10. Decent and was improving towards the end but at the start was unbearable

6 – infuriating to watch with he’s decision making but he had something which is sorely lacking in our squad…PACE! Despite having a few poor performances you did see glimpse of the player he could be with a bit of knuckling down!

7, a bit hot and cold but when he was hot … he was magma

What do we think?
Leko made a total of nine goal contributions in his 21 Championship games for Charlton this season, scoring five goals and providing four assists, as per WhoScored. Only three Addicks players have scored more league goals than Leko did for Charlton this term, while only Jonathan Williams managed to provide one more Championship assist than Leko did for the Addicks this season.
With that in mind, it may be understandable why some of these Charlton fans have been acknowledging the player’s positive qualities. However, considering that Leko is still a young player, at just 21-years-old, it may also be understandable why some Addicks fans may feel that he has still got some areas of his game to improve upon.
