He must be pretty bad if he can't get in this squad. Another LJ/MA transfer disaster. Yeah all those transfer disasters that have seen us develop from relegation to playoff contenders while heading for a 4th consecutive season of league position improvement despite operating with a bottom half budget.

Southend Blue Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Well it should be underway over there in a moment or so. Saw our team for today and while little to play for, there are players available that can still make a difference. You haven't won two games over us in a season since 1979 but of course have been separated by different leagues for a majority of that. Hope for a good game, may the best team win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcofisher Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 (edited) As soon as any forward player gets the ball in any central position they are just being crowed out by the opposition.

Esmond Million's Bung Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Wow another in our latest instalment of dull, uninspiring and truly poor performances. We play nice one touch football up until the halfway line and then totally run out of ideas and then revert to a ‘chuckle brothers’ style of ‘to me, to you, to me, to you, oops it’s been intercepted’, we even tried that tactic on the edge of our own box a couple of times. No invention, no penetration, poor crossing, poor decision making, we have not created a single chance. Diedhiou is having a mare, his first touch is awful, his passing is awful and he is simply not holding the ball up and going down far too easily. Kelly looks really comfortable as does Pisano, in fact the defence looks relatively untroubled but so does Ipswich’s. If I had to come up with a phrase to describe this game so far it would be ‘a steaming pile of rancid dog shit’. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityexile Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 All the pace and excitement of a pre season friendly. We have been worked out that if you defend fairly decently, against us, we struggle to create pretty much anything, and then it is just waiting for your own chances. One goal and that table would be looking pretty good...but been saying that for a while recently. Just feels like we are going through the motions, and hoping something happens.

old_eastender Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 HT 0-0, not good. Smith anonymous, resulting in Pato and Reid having to keep coming back to halfway line to collect the ball. Nobody providing any width, 1 overlap by Pisano, Pato just keeps wandering inside. Fammy looking like a league 2 striker, no control of the ball whatsoever. Brownhill can't seem to sort his feet out. On plus side Pack playing well, so is Kelly and Reid his usual super busy self. LJ needs to change this at HT, but I bet he wont. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
