We looked tired today which isn't a surprise really. It showed as the team lacked that something extra that they normally have. So on that basis it was an excellent result. I hope the players enjoy their time off and come back refreshed.
The wind had a far more noticeable impact on the game, far more than other games when it has been windy.
People are rightly praising Matty Taylor but Easty deserves the plaudits just as much. He kept us in that match which meant Tayls could get the winner. I'd also like to mention Elliott Moore as I thought he really stood up when Southend had us under pressure.
Undoubtedly a fair few had off days, especially in midfield, and the team as a unit, but that they dug out a win is promising for the future.
Southend deserve praise considering how bad they've been this season. I agree with Sol Campbell that they deserved a point, probably all 3 tbf imo. Handled the conditions in both halves better than us and it was only that end spell when we got on top (with the 3 chances) that they struggled.
And finally nice to see we saw out the injury time pretty comfortably.
