Matchday (evening) and exiles thread vs Rotherham 04/03/25

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Not quite sure what Richie is waiting for in terms of changing it up. We’re struggling

[Bandy Legs]

Agyei not sharp which is understandable.
Kelman is doing his best Ruel impression

[gshaw]

Looks like we've been found out with the lack of physicality from set pieces, going to need big performances from the subs

[essexfootball]

Heads gone from wellens, taking Ayegi off for DJ

[Mistadobalina]

Another corner.

Season dangerously close to petering out sadly. We would've wiped the floor with this lot a month ago.

Been consistently poor at defending set pieces for the last 6 weeks

No Beckles or Happe, no-one capable of handling themselves physically.

We aren't good against teams sitting deep who are 1 up. Hard to see us getting back into this.

DJ coming on is baffling to me. We have such better options. Hopefully this is a reverse Jonah.

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Our press isn’t near what it has been and teams have worked out we are weak from set peices. Too many players not fit or shattered.

The good news is there’s still 25 mins and we can easily win this

[Jeremy Bentham]

Another corner.

Yep, defending corners is killing us.

Think you answered your own question. DJ is about the only forward player who offers physicality

[essexfootball]

Not just set pieces no goals in three games bar a Brown wonder strike....always needed a proper striker...

[Bandy Legs]

Reading up to 8th.
TJ, Happes, Omar & Simpson injuries have fugged us

[DrWindy]

How did he miss that

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Night to forget for Kelman

[essexfootball]

Kelman is f*cking sh*t, how does anyone rate him

[Jeremy Bentham]

Kelman is having one tonight.

[Mistadobalina]

Deary me Kelman. Shocker. We've been seriously under par and still created far more chances.

[gshaw]

3eading up to 8th.

Being brutal I'd be looking to move the first two on next season, you can't rely on them to be fit for more than half a season at a time

[DrWindy]

Kelman is f*cking sh*t, how does anyone rate him

He has to hit the target there.

[gshaw]

Kelman is f*cking sh*t, how does anyone rate him

15 goals says otherwise but confidence seems to be evaporating or just knackered perhaps

[Jeremy Bentham]

Now 6 points outside the play-offs. Who'd have thought that 2 weeks ago.

[davidmoooney99]

If Sweeney left tomorrow - he’d have clubs in the national league south queuing up for him

11 in the league same as Ruel last season who no one rates and Ruel did it in less minutes and not playing up top, Kelman is poo poo, a good striker in this team hits 20 easy and we'd be easily in the playoffs

There is a reason he couldn't even get in a rubbish Wigan team, wellens is in love with him and can't see the major problem in stopping this side being better

[George M]

We are little old Orient. The big clubs with more money and bigger squads are doing what they always do at this time of the season.

[faith1234]

f*cking agyie whould havw staywd on the pitch

[essexfootball]

Got to commit, get Ethan further forward and on the ball

[Celtient]

I think Lemming must have left some gloves behind and Keeley's been wearing them by mistake the last couple of games.
