Parkinson prefers a 4-4-2 formation, but so far this season, in some games we have played just a lone striker because of injuries. We've been struggling for width too, but I think with the additions of Henry & Ameobi, Parkinson will definitely be playing 2 up top on Saturday, so I'd expect Madine & Proctor, who are both big lads to lead the line.
I think he'll play an attacking 4-4-2 formation on Saturday.
Why on earth would I feel a bit silly for suggesting a starting line-up? Like I said, I left the bench open for new arrivals. Talking of which, you mentioned new signings, I know about Inniss, who else was there?
I hope thar's just a bluff. :unsure:
Chris Phillips ‏@CJPhillips1982 4 minil y a 4 minutes Southend-on-Sea, East Ben Coker (hamstring) and Stephen McLaughlin (knee) both doubts for Saturday.
Everyone said that last season when we went to Coventry after not winning a single game and we more than matched them and had a 2-1 lead for a time.
Football is unpredictable.
When you least expect it to be, that's when something happens.
Bolton may have signed a few players, but they aren't going to walk straight into the team and start overwhelming everyone.
We actually managed to sign 5 players in the end, we brought in Tom Thorpe from Rotherham just before the deadline.
I don't expect Parkinson to make too many changes for Saturday even though he's signed 5 new players. I reckon 2 of the new signings will start though.
What I would say though, is we haven't really been playing that well, even though we've won 4 out of 5 games. I think once the team does gel and Parkinson get's the team to play how he really wants it, Southend are going to get a pasting.

Too harsh on McLaughlin in my opinion. Yes he was poor on Saturday (so was everyone), but overall he's made a good start to the season and I'd want him in the team on Saturday.There is part of me that hopes they are. Both were **** poor last Saturday. Kyprianou and another to be given a chance.
They don't have to overwhelm everyone, just us. and we currently look very overwhelmable
or we would do if that was a word.

I hope you're right. But rarely over the last few seasons have I been so pessimistic about a game. It won't matter they get caned 5-0 - I'll still support them. In fact, one gets used to the cycle over 50 years. My mates take the mick by calling Blues the 'yo-yos' and I have a horrible fear this is us on the way to another plunge.
How did you feel before Sheffield away?
