Official Match Thread Colchester United v Southend United - Papa John’s EFL Trophy

When white lines up to take the free kick I shouted don't go short. We go short and gave away the ball and 2-0.

I'm sorry but MM needs to go. We can't even do the fundamentals right. We cant pass. We can't shoot. We don't close. We don't tackle and generally try and play out from the back without the ability to even attempt to do so.

**** off MM and take your lightweight u23 game with you. You sir are out of your depth.
 
We don't help ourselves do we? Playing a free kick cross field inviting pressure which ultimately led to us losing possession.

Defensively we are an absolute shambles. How much space do we want to allow their forwards? Allowing them to take short corners 2 vs 1.

Acquah strolling around up front pretending to close down.

Can someone with better knowledge tell me.... Is this Colchester side also their weaker young side like ours!!! They look as young if not younger and no doubt a lot less first team experience than ours.
I'm disappointed with what I'm seeing from our youngsters against theyres

Its a mixture of young fringe players and young 1st team players, we do have some very young lads playing in our 1st 11.

You're wrong; apparently no-one else could come in and do better ?

If the players can't pass then that's on them not the manager
 
I've not seen huge amounts, a combination of working and it lagging (the irony this is a freebie from a poorly performing ifollow is not lost on me) but we have looked as if we have been trying and playing at them what little I have seen. Have I literally lucked out on my selective viewing?
