Pre-Match Thread SOUTHEND v BARNET

[dannypav]

What do we think the line up will be ?

My guess :

SMITH
CLOHESSY , CRESSWELL , PROSSER , BARKER
TOMLIN , TIMLIN , HURST , MARTIN
EASTWOOD , ASSOMBALONGA

SUBS : BENTLEY , STRAKER , COUGHLAN , WOODYARD , BENYON , NJIE

 

[We8colu]

think he will go with :

SMITH
CLOHESSY , CRESSWELL , BARKER, STRAKER
HURST , PROSSER, TIMLIN ,MARTIN
EASTWOOD , ASSOMBALONGA

SUBS : BENTLEY , TOMLIN , COUGHLAN , WOODYARD , BENYON , NJIE

think he will go with :

SMITH
CLOHESSY , CRESSWELL , BARKER, STRAKER
HURST , PROSSER, TIMLIN ,MARTIN
EASTWOOD , ASSOMBALONGA

SUBS : BENTLEY , TOMLIN , COUGHLAN , WOODYARD , BENYON , NJIE

Prosser CM, please say you are joking?

 

[leeblue]

I take it leanord is still injured?????

If he is available then i reckon he will be in the centre with Timlin

 

[We8colu]

we all know ps likes to play people out of position, and with low numbers in the squad anything is possible. i think prosser played in midfield last season when needed. maybe not the centre but in the left. -

i think leanard is still out

 

[Jedi Shrimper]

think he will go with :

SMITH
CLOHESSY , CRESSWELL , BARKER, STRAKER
HURST , PROSSER, TIMLIN ,MARTIN
EASTWOOD , ASSOMBALONGA

SUBS : BENTLEY , TOMLIN , COUGHLAN , WOODYARD , BENYON , NJIE

Er...surely he'd just put Straker at LM, and keep Prosser & Barker where they are. Then Hurst in the middle of midfield.

 

[south247]

Sneaking feeling Eastwood will play CM!!

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

Should still have enough to beat Barnet, who havent scored away yet and have been a guranteed 3 points for many a season now.

 

[dannypav]

Prosser CM, please say you are joking?

For Xavi and Iniesta , read Timlin and Prosser

 

[Shrimpergonzo]

I think he'll use the best available players as follows:

-------------------Smith---------------

Clohessy Cresswell Prosser Barker

-----------Hurst Timlin Martin-------

----------------Eastwood--------------

----------Tomlin Assombalonga-----


Subs: Bentley, Straker, Phillips, Benyon, Woodyard, Njie, Coughlan


If he sticks to 4-4-2 then Woodyard will play, can't be many easier games for him to get his league debut.

 

[FarmdogSUFC]

I would guess a little something like this:

Smith
Clohessy - Cresswell - Prosser - Barker
Tomlin - Hurst - Timlin - Martin
Eastwood - Assombalonga

Subs: Bentley - Coughlan - Straker - Woodyard - Benyon - Njie - Youth.Player
​

Back four definately won't be changed, just to keep some consistency, and also have only named players that are meant to be fit for Saturday. If Phillips is fit then obviously he will be on the bench instead of a youth player. Very worrying times at the minute.

 

[We8colu]

whats people's general thoughts on woodyard ?? with only 2 cm at the club, could it be time to give him a chance ??

 

[Supa Shrimpa]

Taking into consideration suspensions, injuries and match fitness, I think the side will look something like :

D.Bentley
S.Clohessy G.Coughlan R.Cresswell P.Clark
R.Martin C.Phillips P. Smith N.Alliker B.Clarkson
Assombalonga
Subs : Lockett (GK), Kavanagh,

 

[Jam_Man]

I think he'll use the best available players as follows:

-------------------Smith---------------

Clohessy Cresswell Prosser Barker

-----------Hurst Timlin Martin-------

----------------Eastwood--------------

----------Tomlin Assombalonga-----


Subs: Bentley, Straker, Phillips, Benyon, Woodyard, Njie, Coughlan


If he sticks to 4-4-2 then Woodyard will play, can't be many easier games for him to get his league debut.

He can use those same players in 442 with Tomlin on the right ? Id agree he could line up like you suggest, but I think he will stick with 442

 

[Derbyshire Blue]

I recall a few on here wanting to see Tomlin out on the right once Freddy was back, still an option? Push Hurst more central? Or what about Tomlin as an advanced CM? Or would Freddy as playmaker be a better bet?

Who'd be a manager eh?!

I would if I could

 

[Onion_Bag_Dave]

Bentley/Smith
Clohessy Creswell Prosser Barker
Timlin
Tomlin Martin
Hurst
Eastwood Britt


Let's have a diamond 4 in midfield with Hurst having it large through the middle, Timlin smashing peoples heads in sitting infront of the back four pulling the strings. With Britt and Eastwood causing mayhem up top.

BYE BYE BARNET, BARNET BYE BYE!

 

[C C Csiders]

Barnet away to the Community Service Volunteers. Tough call. 2-1 Barnet.

 

[Cockle43]

Wouldn't mind seeing Eastwood in a CM/top of diamond role tomorrow, I thought he looked to have a decent enough game there Tuesday and looked to be trying to create some useful moves.

 

[Shrimper2thecore]

Freddy CM and Tomlin back up top with Assombalonga
