SOUTHEND United duo Ollie Kensdale and Matt Dennis both suffered injuries during Saturday’s defeat at Yeovil Town.

Kensdale was replaced by Joe Gubbins at the break and, when asked if it was a tactical change or an enforced alteration, Blues boss Kevin Maher said: “It was a bit of both.

“He had a tight thigh but Joe gave us that balance on the left.”

Dennis then also had to be substituted 20 minutes from time after a spell of treatment.

But Maher has yet to find out the full extent of the injury.

“I’m not sure on Matty yet,” said Maher.

“I haven’t had time to look at it and I’m not sure if it was his knee or his ankle.”
