What a performance that was tonight. Superb finishes by Langstaff. Possibly our most underrated player Sam Austin got his reward too. Bostock now he's fully match fit and with more freedom to go forward looks like the player we hoped we had signed. Jodi Jones was a constant threat and looked genuinely capable defensively as well. And Matt Palmer was imperious. That's not to ignore the performance of any of the other players, all of whom were at 7/8 out of 10 level, but the ones I've named were particularly noticeable.

Southend actually aren't a bad side, but we were at them from all angles. They were 2-0 down before they really got a foot on the ball.
