    The way the squad is building it points to a change in formation firstly we need another striker imo and it seems most opinions he'll want to play regularly, then there's Armstrong how can he be left out ? and McClaren won't keep him here if he's sub for too long. Then we need to supply them, a...

    For me any new striker needs to be a proven one, we have been lucky with Armstrong and I have my doubts we will be again with another rookie kid, trouble then an experienced striker won't be happy on the bench, Newcastle won't be happy if Armstrong is on the bench so does it point towards...

    We need players to come straight into the reckoning

    Sorry Otis but with respect that is tripe, did you ever see George Best ? Name a quicker player than him today or a faster striker than Jimmy Greaves or Gary Lineker or Ian Rush or Ian Wright or Dwight York I've covered about 40 years there. It is attitude nothing else.

    We need players to come straight into the reckoning

    Don't know what it is with modern day players and managers come to that, I can go back a few years and remember Bill Glazier signing on the day of a match v Portsmouth away, starred in a 2-0 victory, George Hudson hat-trick on debut, George Kirby the same, Chris Cattlin signed from second...

    We need players to come straight into the reckoning

    We are apparently in the hunt for 3 new players, which if true is good however whoever we sign needs to be available immediately to play none of this will need to plays 2 or 3 U21s to get them " up to speed" bunkum

    Defence

    Attacking Options

    And the defence he's played behind, changes almost every week, when it was a settled defence he kept about half a dozen clean sheets, a new goalkeeper won't score the goals needed to win games.

    Southend United (Away) Match Thread

    Not enough forward passes, sideways and backwards, our goalkeeper gets more passes to his feet than our centre forward.

    Southend United (Away) Match Thread

    I said the other day we have 8 very winnable games to come in a row and need to win atleast 6 I still stand by that. As bad as today has been for us none above us have steamed ahead. Today will test the management supposedly on the prowl for 3 players and a week to go to get them, over to you...

    Adam Armstrong injured

    Is this Armstrong injured story genuine ? If it is it highlites the need to strengthen that area by atleast one. Injuries are part and parcel of football and I think we are worryingly short in the strike department.

    The gap widens or closes today...

    With our squad The next 8 games are all winnable, very winnable, probably with Southend on paper the most difficult. We won't win them all but if we have automatic ambitions should perhaps must win 6. Southend have struggled lately and taken some good hidings, so you are correct today is a...

    Adam Armstrong injured

    that group of players are good enough to beat any team in this league, I think though Hunt will play midfield and possibly Haynes at left back and he'll start with Tudgay. Must win game for me

    We need any player who improves our promotion prospects so if it was a 35 year old for 4 months I would take him
