v Southend: pre match; team; the game

[andy jones]

Forgot to say that's why we need to play proven goalscorers Pope & Hughes.

[andy jones]

BTW if all the top sides get the same number of pts in the next 10 games as in their last ten the season ends ... Gills 81, Burton 79, us 78, Cheltenham 77, Rotherham 77 plus game in hand, Exeter 77 plus game in hand.

What makes me laugh is how many fans said how they dont rate chilvers, however all but one has put him in their ideal starting 11 for southend :D:D

[mitchpvfc]

I'd go for:

 

Neal

 

Duffy

Purse

Chilvers

Jones

 

Griff

 

JMW

Morsy

Burge

 

Pope

Hughes

 

Back for obviously kept the same. Morsy in for Loft with JMW still keeping that width and Burge back in for Vincent patrolling that left side hopefully gettng forward and whipping some crosses in too. Hughes in for Dodds as i reckon Southend are there for the taking as ive heard 2 key defnders are out. Vital game but im feeling a 3-1 win! Hopefully that happens...

[andy jones]

A thumbs up from me for that one Mitch.

I don't rate Chilvers but don't think we have much choice.

[Avon]

I could go with that. Give MA a call and tell him that the internet warriors have got it sorted.

 

Not sure he's taking calls at the moment!

That's the team I would pick. Maybe Shuker for Morsy? As I think Shuker could be very effective in a midfield 3.

 

I really want to see Hughes starting.

Looks like MA is trying to bring in more additions according to RS

At #Vale press conference, Micky Adams says: Richard Duffy (ankle) and Daniel Jones (knee ligament) are both doubtful for Southend game

And you know this how? When has Williamson been given a decent run in the side? He plays the odd 60 minutes and generally looks a threat. Yes he is very raw and will miss a lot of chances, but he will scare defenders with his pace. And as for Morsy, he has been excellent all season; people were talking about him playing in the championship at one point, his goal against Oxford shows the class the lad has. One red card and he hasnt been given a chance since, you cant judge either of them fairly as they havnt been given a decent chance, same goes for Dodds. Someone on here was saying there was no point in picking Dodds again as we didnt score last night. Again players like Dodds are given one chance when certain fan favourites are given an infinite amount to score. These players seem to have become an unfair scapegoat.

 

The only people Williamson scares are the people in the front couple of rows, 10 yards either side of the goal. I've seen him miss enough good chances to form an opinion thanks
