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

Jesus wept

 

[sofatester]

Ba isn't the problem. I'd have played him and Ryan today

He has been awful lately but he's just a young lad

 

[AC Mack]

We have been awful and had luck...

Hope I'm wrong

We weren't awful against Preston. Went two up first half and cruised through the second half by barely giving Preston a sniff.

 

[samsafc]

Don’t understand why he’s setup this defensively when Ipswich are on the ropes. We should be at them attacking from the off. If we give them time in the ball it’ll be a routine 2-0 win for them.
Haway the lads!

We haven’t been awful. We should be about 10 points better off this season if we actually had a bit of luck.

 

[Legend]

Much as I try I can't see the logic in that selection. I wish Speakman would let Beale have a go.

Three points would be nice lads but right now I'd settle for one.

I don’t think a point away from home to 2nd/3rd in the league is settling to be honest.

They’ve only dropped 9 points at home all season (1 loss, 3 draws, 9 wins) - their 3 draws have been their last 3 home games, but still.

 

[Fletch]

1-0 Jobe back on track

 

[hallix]

Nice to see Matete and Jewi on bench tho’

 

[rubberface]

He's not awful like, but he has been overplayed and is clearly low on confidence. Too many touches, off the pace. He shouldn't be starting this game at all.

He is imo. So slow it's unreal, take his surname away and he wouldn't be anywhere near the first team.

He has been awful lately but he's just a young lad

I'd say the stick he's been getting hasn't helped and has been way over the top.

 

[Chewit]

It's not the Leeds set though is it or we'd have Seelt starting.

I’ve no idea, let’s see how he sets up

 

[Mackem Attack]

Let's hope it's Ba out wide, Jobe up front and Pritchard as a 10. I bet it's not like.

Jobe could do with a rest. Not doing anyone any favours playing him at all costs.

This is probably our best arrangement without Roberts tbh, Jobe up front and Pritchard in behind. Nothing to suggest any of the strikers deserve a minute on the pitch tbh

 

[Hunwick Mackem]

Ba for Rusyn????

Un-Beale-able.

 

[Fletch]

We haven’t been awful. We should be about 10 points better off this season if we actually had a bit of luck.

Would be if we had a striker

 

[Morse]

No Rigg in the squad, very disappointing.

Ten men behind the ball doesn't require a striker!

 

[Becs]

Think I'll light my calming candle after reading the match thread

 

[Ayrton]

We should be going after Ipswich after they recent form, looks to be far too defensive

 

[everstar]

Don’t understand why he’s setup this defensively when Ipswich are on the ropes. We should be at them attacking from the off. If we give them time in the ball it’ll be a routine 2-0 win for them.
Haway the lads!

Rusyn is more defensive than Ba mind. I’ve never seen Ba do anything but look to attack. Raw but he is always looking to be positive.

 

[Anthly]

just see the season drifting away under Beale. TM had us in a decent position, can’t see us reaching the playoffs under this clown.
Prove me wrong Beale.

 

[GipseT]

We haven’t been awful. We should be about 10 points better off this season if we actually had a bit of luck.

Yes but not the last day 7-8 games... When we persists with this kind of lineup.
