A change of formation?
I'm a big fan of the old trusted 4-4-2 formation. The big man, little man combo up front with two pacey wingers supplying them creates a lot of problems for teams. But with Josh Wright now in the squad, how well do you think we could get on with a 4-3-3 set up? A midfield three of Lenny, Woody...- MisterStubbs

The January transfer window
We came up well short today of the standard required to get out of this league. The players have performed above themselves to get to this point in 7th place. We have Glen Rea and Joel piggot on loan. Thanks for the goal pig but you are out of your depth. I'm not sure why we need glen Rea. He...- Tommy2holes

Going Forward??
Despite our good form Adrian Clarke commentating on our last game said we had NO PACE up top and need to invest in a pacey striker. This we all more or less accept as obvious. I thought Peterborough were quite good when I saw them and we beat them. They have shot up the table and are scoring...- Barry.C

Question How much would you pay to see us sign a top striker?
With the off season being a bit dull and looking around at other clubs' fans who have decide to raise funds to buy a player.

Alfie Potter - Oxford
Always rated him, very tricky and pacey, he reminds me of Ricky Holmes. Anyway he has left Oxford after 5 and a half years, obviously doesn't fit in with Michael Appleton's ego. Firstly he doesn't play against us tomorrow which is a bonus but he is now looking for a club - would you take him?- Silencer

Who should we be looking to sign in the summer?
Obviously apart from Ronaldo, Messi, Joe Hart & Pique, what type of players should we be looking to bring in come the summer?

Loan Signings?
Yes, we are on a super little run at the moment. And Sturrock and the team must be praised for that. But, it is clear we need to strengthen the team in several departments. That is of course if we are serious about giving the Play-Off's a go... IMO in an ideal world, we need the following...- Smiffy

Defending corners....
Not sure if this has been covered before? Anyway, what's people's take on defending corners? I've noticed that we tend to bring everyone back into and on the edge of the 18-yard box. For me, this is a bit of a crap tactic. It encourages the opposition team to pile more men forward and it allows...- GBJ

In recent years Southend have been associated with playing good, passing football.
