Adam Armstrong injured (5 Viewers)

[Evo1883]

His knee in training , out of the game tomorrow according to his close uncle on facebook
Who by the way travels to watch him at the Ricoh , don't see why he would lie

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Step forward Fortune

 

[Evo1883]

Murphy down the middle hopefully

 

[runner]

If true, it just goes from bad to worse ... Fortune is no good ... Tudgay I guess, at least he puts a little more effort in ... but we can't afford to draw, let alone lose tomorrow ... so let's hope that he's not injured or I see points slipping again sadly

 

[Evo1883]

Waiting for club to say so but hoping it's a minor knock

 

[Sick Boy]

Don't worry, the teams around us about to go into free-fall,apparently.

I doubt the club would make an announcement over a player (hopefully) missing one game

good one

 

[Otis]

Oh bugger! (if true).

We need that new striker in sharpish if he's out for more than one game. Knee injuries can prove problematic.

 

[skybluesam66]

havent we got a better record without him?

 

[skybluetony176]

Hopefully nothing to serious. He's a big loss.

Take a day off will you.

We have not done badly without him in the past - a few have already said may be a tougher game for old heads.
If injured would love Tudguy to get a start with Maddison, Murphy & Job behind him! Could work well that!!

 

[Specs WT-R75]

-----------Tudgay
Murphy Cole Maddison JOB
----------Vincelot
Haynes Stokes Ramage Ricketts
---------- RCC

Would feel a lot better if Murphy hadn't have been bang out of form for the last two matches.

Could we have Maddison and Murphy in a sort of fluctuating/free, front role and then strengthen midfield?

So something like:

RCC

Ricketts Ramage Stokes Hunt

Bigi Vincelot

Rose JOB

Maddison/Cole Murphy/Cole

 

[standupforcity]

No Panic...TM has been preparing for such an eventuality...we have strength in depth...be interesting though to see which way he goes.

 

[shmmeee]

We've won every game without him so far haven't we?

 

[fernandopartridge]

I'd go with Tudgay up front, Murphy in the no 10 role he was doing well in. Lameiras and JOB alongside.

 

[Specs WT-R75]

Chesterfield... does that count since he was in the squad. We were pretty bad in the first half that day without him

Fair point, I was just thinking about the games he was away.

 

[stevefloyd]

I'll go with Otis...looks an exciting side and a lot stronger than last Saturday

 

[stevefloyd]

If we could nick a 1-0 2-1 that would be great but obviously hoping for a 3 or 4 nil

Bigi Vincelot

Rose JOB

Maddison/Cole Murphy/Cole

that group of players are good enough to beat any team in this league, I think though Hunt will play midfield and possibly Haynes at left back and he'll start with Tudgay. Must win game for me

Yea if Amstrong is out I would give some serious thought to playing with no out and out striker, I wouldn't play Rose though. Have Bigi and Vincelot sitting and go with an attacking 4 of JOB, Maddison, Cole, Murphy

You got a link to this mate?

 

[chiefdave]

Don't think we need to panic if he's just missing a game. If he was out for months that'd be different.

 

[sw88]

Might not be a bad thing. Confuse the hell out of any pre planned tactics Southend might have had, and a chance for us to show we do actually have a plan B

 

[Otis]

I know we have done well without him, but we haven't done well BECAUSE he is out of the team. I think it is just a coincidence.

We haven't played any better when he hasn't been there and he is the top scorer in this league!

We will miss him without any doubt.

Fingers crossed it's just this game,Aaron Martin out with a 'knock' for Chesterfield game......

If it's happened today probably see how it is over the weekend then scan on Monday?

I second that.

Hate the 'we've done well without him' line, in that case we shouldn't have bothered renewing his deal!

 

[ccfc92]

Or possibly a ploy?

Brown quoted as the difference between Southend and CCFC is Armstrong :thinking about:

TM will not give the orange one any info like that until 1/2 before kick off

 

[Delboycov]

Bang on the money as usual Otis...haven't posted on here for a long time but can always rely on you to talk sense!

You certainly can't have been on here a while if you reckon I always talk sense!
