Team for Burton game?

[Harry Bullocks]

Smith and Phillips back?.....BBBC out....clearly. Freddie to remain as sub to ease him back to full match fitness.


Smith
Clohessy Phillips/Prosser Cresswell Barker
Hurst Timlin Spicer Martin
Assambalonga Benyon/Tomlin

Subs; Freddie, Straker, Leonard, Bentley, Woodyard, plus 2 from Phillips, Prosser and Benyon, Tomlin

 

[Rattus Norvegicus]

Yes, much of the team picks itself - and that is good news - very good news.

Most of the queries are around players returning from injury. I would like to see Philips, Smith and Tomlin back but their appearance on the subs bench for tonight would be good.

About time Benyon got off the mark with a cracker of a goal ..............

 

[Jam_Man]

Didnt go to Plymouth but against Exeter Benyon was totally ineffective. Looked ok when he got the ball at his feet but just cant see him scoring. He is too small to win anything in the air, but as we werent playing overly direct that wasnt really an excuse, maybe having someone like Freddy in with him able to pick out a pass would help.

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

One change from Saturday.

Start Eastwood.

 

[Shrimper2thecore]

Freddy must start.

80% fit is better than any other option we have.

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

Freddy with one leg is more of a threat than big arse benyon.

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

Freddy must start.

80% fit is better than any other option we have.

Agreed,

I'd much rather have a half fit Freddy than a fully fit Benyon, offers nothing.

 

[LennySUFC]

Every time freddy has the ball you just think we can create a goal scoring chance, so for me he has got to start. Benyon has had two games and done very little! It all depends on the fitness of players..

Also if we are short on the bench, would ryan hall be there? He is a southend player and did state he would play for us but at the same time wanted to further his career!?!

Would you have him back!

the assists and crosses from hall and hurst would be unbelievable..

As long as your tall centre forward wasn't sat in the stands through suspension..................:whistling:

Smith to come back in between the sticks, nothing against bentley he has performed very well. Experience just swings it for me at the moment. Phillips in for Prosser if fully fit. And anyone up front instead of Benyon ! Totally ineffective.

I'd include Hall on bench. Wouldn't let him leave on loan. Use him, we're paying his wages after all !!! If he starts performing he can be the key man to get us promotion. Surely that is worth more than a 100/150k transfer fee.

 

[FarmdogSUFC]

Smith (if fit)/Bentley
Clohessy - Cresswell - Prosser - Barker
Hurst - Spicer - Timlin - Martin
Assomablonga - Eastwood

Subs: Bentley/Smith - Phillips - Coughlan - Straker - Leonard - Benyon - Tomlin(if fit)/Njie

I know we don't have much choice in CM , but just feel that Spicer needs to step it up a bit some time soon.

one tackle would be a start, and eastwood to start

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

I know we don't have much choice in CM , but just feel that Spicer needs to step it up a bit some time soon.

Indeed, he's the weak link imo. I feel he was a panic signing, although I don't blame Sturrock as we had nothing else.

 

[The Big Shrimp]

Eastwood in for Bunyon who is clearly carrying a back injury judging by the way he waddles around the pitch and the amount of K tape on his back. Why are we playing him?

 

[TrueBlue]

Yeah we have to start Eastwood for this one I fell

 

[Onion_Bag_Dave]

I'd like to see Bentley keep his place and I'd love Eastwood to start.

 

[LennySUFC]

I Think more competition in CM is needed for both Spicer and Timlin..

 

[Shrimpers are Magic]

Yeah we have to start Eastwood for this one I fell

Hope someone helped you up :winking:

Can see Smith playing but apart from that, can't see the side changing much - Tomlin may start if fit but Eastwood will stay on the bench.

 

[Jam_Man]

Indeed, he's the weak link imo. I feel he was a panic signing, although I don't blame Sturrock as we had nothing else.

He wasnt a panic signing, he was here for ages prior to joining.

Do agree that he has been disappointing so hopefully he will pick his game up starting tomorrow.
