Simple concept. Three seasons in League One have come to an end, if all the players were available to you what would your matchday 16 be? Straight 4-4-2 for the starting XI. For the purposes of the list I've only included players who played more than 10 games during our time in League One. There was a lot of crud to sift out as you can imagine!!

There's 43 players listed below but for info a total of 70 players have pulled on the jersey in the last three seasons (plus whatever youth players may appear against Stockport and Southampton).

Surprised at just how many strikers we've used in three seasons!!

Goalkeepers
Adam Federici
Darryl Flahavan
Steve Collis
Steve Mildenhall

Full Backs
Charlie Mulgrew
Dan Harding
Johnny Herd
Lewis Hunt
Osei Sankofa
Simon Francis
Steven Hammell
Scott Malone

I'd probably go pretty much the same, although I may have Robson-Kanu ahead of Scannell, It's only been since the turn of the year that Scannell looked pretty decent.

Great thread and very difficult to reply to! Although, shouldn't it be a sqaud of 18?

I would go with this.

Federici

Francis
Dervite
Barrett
Mulgrew

Robson-Kanu
Bailey
Maher
Gower

Barnard
Robinson


Subs:
Flahavan
Hunt
Baldwin
Laurent
Grant
L. Clarke

The list of wide midfielders really is poor, proves that we never really replaced Gower.

The strikers list is similarly shocking. MacDonald and Hooper wouldn't make the bench as I am judging my choices based on how the players played at Southend, not elsewhere.

I thought that but isn't this season the first with 18? So two of the seasons have been with 16 only. Doesn't really matter though!
 
Federici

Mulgrew - Dervite - Clarke - Hammell

Gower - Sawyer - Bailey - Hal Robson-Kanu

Barnard - Robinson



Subs: Flahavan, Barrett, Scannell, Maher, Clarke.
 
GK Federici

RB Franno
LB Hammell
CB Dervite
CB Clarke

RM Gower
LM Robson-Kanu
CM Maher
CM Bailey

ST Hooper
ST Barnard

S1 Flavs
S2 Barrett
S3 Grant
S4 Sawyer
S5 Robinson

What stands out for me is the numbers of loan players, not only in the list, but appearing in fans 16 elect. Another damning indictment of Ron's lack of investment into the club.
