PLAYERS

Disappointed about today's result. Should've had a least a point. Hottest conditions I've ever played in. Never known anything like it. On a plus side, it's 90 minutes under the belt so the fitness and sharpness will soon follow. Looking forward to that first goal.

Good performance but lady luck not with us. If Brown doesn't tinker too much then the first win shouldn't be too far away.

@stonkerama

So frustrating again! It's obvious we need a goal scorer but we have come up against good keepers.

@deanallum

Played OK but still need to more clinical in front of goal.

@kevski74

Hot and disappointing. The almost team again. One mistake cost us, their mistakes did not.

@mattbarrett80

Why we looking for a striker? Hunt, Pigott, Mooney no good? Have we bought wrong?

@e9026a5ff11a466

We've got a great team and create great chances but we can't capitalise on the chances we make.

@danmc_sufc

Dominated the game. Can't see where our first win is coming from though.

@liddlejs

No quality in the final third. That was the difference .

@jimbocow1

Very unlucky not to get a point, We played brilliantly and didn't deserve to lose.

@1chickflick

I think we should be playing at home like we're the home team and play with two strikers to score.

@peterwayland1

Not unimpressed with the performance but regularly not in the right place at the right time.

@jameswood_

We need to score some goals really.

@deejsouthend

Unlucky not to get anything from the game as we were the better team. But still lacking killer instinct in final third.

@jammanuk2000

If we can get a forward in that can score goals we will be OK. If we can't I'm afraid it's over.

@markshrimper

Poor from Southend in the finishing department Brown can't complain about lack of cutting edge with one striker up front.

@jamesmanktelow

Need a CB and a goal scorer. Just need to get that first win under the belt.

@1aaroncross

We're playing well but lacking a killer instinct. If we weren't creating chances I'd be worried.

@scottwallace_

I thought we played superbly and were probably the better side. Unfortunately the same old story, we can't find the back of the net.

@p_rourke

Midfield must get forward more, run at defenders and shoot, shoot, shoot!
