*~*~* Ipswich v Sunderland match thread *~*~*

Knee height curling "like fuck"

Have another look was like a cross man

 

[Tobin7]

Jobe not been great again but I’m not minding him running onto a long ball - very disruptive

 

[samsafc]

Not great , 5/10

 

[Geppetto]

Genuinely interested on what positives you've got out of that half? Genuine question not even being a twat

I thought we looked all over the shop in defence, very little positives going forward, slow on the ball, very poor passing.

Perhaps you missed Ipswich's high press and ability to quickly close us down, one of the various reasons they are where they are in the league.

Our passing has been sub par at times but we've matched a tough side away from home and can cause them problems.

 

[wakey]

Not sure I’ve ever seen our players argue amongst themselves on the pitch so much since Beale took over.

Do you think it’s a lack of direction from the manager??

 

[Lionel Hutzz]

We play disgusting football now like. I can always accept it being boring if it's effective, but it's shit and ineffective.

We'll come out 2nd half and play the same way and Jobe will play the entire match, because his surname is Bellingham

Don’t pretend we weren’t like this a lot of the time before . I’m not a fan of Beale but again I was far from a fan of Tawny. Some people are being selective in their memories as it was very simmilar a lot of the time under Tawny but because the mob liked him he got a free pass

 

[kingkeane]

poor

 

[Serusaleet]

I would be amazed if there is a better midfielder in the league than Neil. Getting completely let down by this setup

Absolutely class

 

[Steesafc]

Optmistic, we can hurt these

 

[Foreigner]

OK. A lot of misplaced passes, the basics going astray.

We are crying out for someone to control in the middle.

 

[Onlyfoolsrushin]

Hmm this is now Beale formation and tactics... an improvement on Mowbray?

Well we got beat at home off them under Mowbray.

 

[McMackem]

Always going to be tricky after last week, so I'm glad we've settled at least - pity we gave up the deserved lead. Some strange sloppy passing and so odd to see Clarke appear to carelessly just run the ball out there. The pitch has been heavily watered, hardly encouraging a flowing game. Hoping we kick on in the second half, Ipswich seem to have their own issues.

 

[gards2]

We had plenty of that when last years player of the year was in the team. But we sold him as he didn’t “fit the model“ i.e. he is older than our owner

sold because of a clause, cheap owners.

My God if you think that is us playing disgusting football you can’t have been a fan long.

 

[PeteFTM]

Jobe off and Rusyn on for me

 

[radjee gadjee]

O'Nien and Neil playing well
Luke looked a tad pissed with himself for their goal. Think it was a good ball in behind personally

It took a lucky deflection.

 

[hank williams]

we gifted them all their chances, if we keep the foot on the gas we can win this game

just like last week

Just bad directions...

 

[Dash riprock]

Jobe ball watching, had no idea what was going on around him. Just stood there when the pass was intercepted in front of him. Dreadful.

This , he wouldnt have got the ball but the lad wouldnt have been able to pick a pass. Dozy twat

 

[rentaghost]

Not at fault today

I agree the goal was lucky. We had the through ball covered but it took a snappy deflection right into his path.
