Town have named an entirely changed XI for this evening’s final friendly at home to Southend United (KO 7pm).

Vaclav Hladky is in goal with what looks like a back four of, from the right, Kane Vincent-Young, Cameron Burgess, Corrie Ndaba and Greg Leigh ahead of him.

Rekeem Harper and Cameron Humphreys are the central midfield pair with Kyle Edwards, Sone Aluko and Tyreece John-Jules behind lone central striker Kayden Jackson.

There is no place for new signing Leif Davis, who only returned from Leeds United's pre-season tour of Australia at the weekend, while everyone else with the exceptions of Dominic Ball and Idris El Mizouni are on the bench.

National League Southend are skippered by former Town academy scholar Nathan Ralph.

Town: Hladky, Vincent-Young, Burgess, Ndaba, Leigh, Harper, Humphreys, Edwards, Aluko, John-Jules, Jackson. Subs: Walton, Donacien, Penney, Edmundson, Morsy, Woolfenden, Burns, Evans, Ladapo, Harness, Chaplin, Chirewa.

Southend: Arnold, Ralph (c), Hobson, Kensale, Bridge, Husin, Dalby, Clifford, Taylor, Miley, Mooney. Subs: Andeng Ndi, Powell, Wood, Fonguck, Wreh, Benton, Demetriou, Davis, Crowhurst, Coker, Reeve. Referee: Chris Pollard (Bury St Edmunds).

Len_Brennan added 18:49 - Jul 26 An amazingly strong & balanced looking starting XI, considering it is a completely different (second string) side.

Juggsy added 19:01 - Jul 26 Surely Leigh is on the left and KVY on the right? Unless I'm reading that wrong.
