Makes no difference what manager we have!!!!! If we had pep Guardiola and jose Mourinho combined they still couldn't get a tune out of this lot! Crap players! Not sols team! Theres been a cancer at the club since the end of Powells reign! Its spread and until we release this lot we are f....d!!.
I think Sol has been handed a difficult legacy but if he is to succeed he must show a willingness to adapt when things are not working. Playing five at the back seems to mean Southend's midfield is often outnumbered and outgunned. At the same time, while it is impossible to eliminate mistakes from the game, you can minimise the opportunities for these to occur by encouraging your defenders to clear the ball from the danger areas in a direct fashion rather than insisting on playing out from the back in intricate passing triangles that run the risk of losing possession and hence conceding goals.
