Looking at the new timetable which I managed to pick up from Surrey Quays, I don't believe it'll take the 7-8 minutes between Wandsworth Road and Clapham Junction on the new line, this is extra time built into the timetable so that the train can make up for delays earlier in the journey, which keeps London Overground's performance figures looking good.

However, thanks to TfL changing the fares from FH and HOP, at least while you're waiting 25-30 mins for the next Southern train, you'll only pay the TfL fare of £1.40/£1.50 peak instead of the national rail fare.

However, at least on Sundays, the Surrey Quays alternative is a more viable option than changing at East Croydon as we do currently.
