Clarke must be dropped now

[Southend Elvis]

Well done tilly for trying something different today, but you should have gone further. Clarke must be dropped now, not for one game, give Efe the chance to get his old form back.
Why can't we get players on loan from the prem, or maybe should we go back and ask Peter Taylor for another recomendation...

How many players must we drop before we accept we are just not good enough as a team ?

Its not one players fault we are struggling and just having Sodje in for Clarke would not suddenly make us start performing.

 

[Southend Elvis]

We are suffering in defence, Efe would change that. Clarke has not been good enough. What do you suggest...

 

[Jam_Man]

Like against Brighton when we let in two ?

I sugest we stop blaming the fact we arent a good enough team on one or two individuals.

 

[blue heaven]

Indeed

 

[Southend Elvis]

So your suggestion is just carry on, good one

 

[Southend Elvis]

We were the best team in the division last year, whats changed.... players so I say it is some players fault.

 

[Jam_Man]

So do you think Sodje what have stopped as conceding 6 in the last two games then ?

Dont get me wrong, I actually think Sodje would help but its get extremely tiring for people to keep shouting for players to be dropped as if its solely their fault.

If we put Sodje in and we lose next week what then ? Drop someone else ?

Its not just the central defenders. Hammel cant defend, looks good to some (not me) drifting too far forward, and whilst I admit he does have a good set piece delivery, he is a poor defender caught out of position time and time again.

Obviously not being there hard to say why but its not the defence losing us these games, but its the fact we arent playing well as a team.

If the other team play better, they win.

Unfortunately thats the case.

Relegation zone now so they need to start pulling together.

Col u seem to be coping, this division isn't that much better than the one we left. I think our team was better last year than this. So we should just give up and go down a division

Until you talk some sense can't you leave the building

 

[Jam_Man]

Colu also lost their first 4 games. Sunderland were in the premiership last year only have a point more than us.

If you think this league isnt much better than league one, and that our team of last year would cope any better then sorry, but your nuts

 

[Southend Elvis]

What do you not understand, the fact that I think we were better last year, or that this division isn't much better than the one we have just left. We are playing poorly

 

[Southend Elvis]

I must be nuts then

 

[Jam_Man]

We were better last year because we played poorer sides.

You ARE joking, I hope. The gap between Championship and League One is huge ... and getting bigger each year. Last year we won a very weak league; this year we are certainly going to know whether we were actually that good. Still, I knew we were going to struggle this season and therefore I am not too concerned at the moment. If we're in the same position in 12 weeks time, then I'll worry ...

 

[Southend Elvis]

Expain Col u and barnsley then..

the whole of the bottom half of this league will be very very tight come may,and i'm sure we will be in the thick of it, i think however that our destiny will be in our hands and that we wont be in a relegation battle on the last day. however we are going to have to improve a lot (which im sure we will) and start scoring and tightning up at the back
