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

[Chewit]

Oops

 

[GipseT]

0-2 . Don’t you worry. The only way is up

Hope so... Put a bet on us before I saw the lineup

 

[TB22]

He’ll not rest jobe is there something in his contract where he can’t be dropped

Its probaby stated that Speakman gets a huge bonus if Jobe is sold on . Hence hes always in starting line up. Shame on Rusyn not starting .

 

[southstander]

Thought Beale was this great tactictian?? Just like for like for Mowbray.

No idea about Beale. I wanted to stick with TM.

 

[Morse]

Rigg isn't, never has been and never will be a striker

I know, but he can get goals all the same. Clarke is our leading scorer, isn't he? He's a winger.
Rusyn hasn't really been playing as an out and out striker, has he?

 

[Tumbles76]

After he hadn’t been picked?

He’ll have starred every game this season I would have thought without checking.

 

[sir rowell cummins]

It’s more defensive playing without a striker however you dress it up. We will have every man behind the ball

We will when we’re defending. I bet you a billion quid we don't when we have it

 

[Idlewild Mackem]

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 really slow recently. I don't think he was to begin with though and he's just so low on confidence now. Fair enough though, can see why you're saying it but I disagree that he's awful. I do think he wouldn't be starting as much if he wasn't Jude's brother though.

 

[Smiler]

He should be in the squad, BeaLe is doing himself no favours .

You do need to recover from playing full games you know.

 

[andy78]

Why though? He hasn't looked out of place when he has been in the 1st team.

Because we're not going to drop Jobe and won't play a 16yo midfielder beside an 18yo one, so Jobe gets the preferential treatment.

 

[Hugh Gains]

Can’t understand the Rusyn decision.

People calling to rest Jobe? Is a week not long enough?

Think he needs to step up!

Bellinghams performances of late suggests the likes of aouchiche deserve a chance

Additionally rusyn is hooked and has never looked bad in a game, whilst Bellingham has been lifting for weeks.

That aside we’ve done striker less again but the recruitment team told us we don’t need a striker so suppose it’s ok to be going back to the striker less formation.

It’s pathetic man.

 

[dave hedgehog]

How in gods creation does rusyn get dropped and Ba comes in.

Are we even trying to get promoted

 

[Luna17]

Ipswich without Burgess, Morsey and Hirst - what a great time to play them. Will never have a better chance of an away win.

 

[Mattyrobinson]

Win or lose that's a poor decision to drop Rusyn. Confidence killer.

 

[Gonk]

Same old shite.

 

[jimb]

I was going for paying for now tv to watch it but after seeing the team i'll leave it. I can't go through it again with no forward threat after I thought we turned the corner vs preston. I'll hoy galdiators on instead and listen to benno

 

[kingmonkey]

Rubbish. We played shit and won because Pritchard whacked one in from 30 yards and Clarke ran the length of the pitch. Was one of the worst games I’ve watched other than that

So we scored 2 good goals and kept a clean sheet, and that was one of the worst games you've watched?
I preferred it to the boro and Coventry games personally.

 

[Makem1977]

Its probaby stated that Speakman gets a huge bonus if Jobe is sold on . Hence hes always in starting line up. Shame on Rusyn not starting .

If this is true that’s disgusting way to run a team , hope someone asks him outright

 

[Grumpy Old Man]

Why though? He hasn't looked out of place when he has been in the 1st team.

Because at his age, playing minutes are more important. He'll develop better training with the first team and playing at 18/21 level than getting the odd 20 minutes here and there off the bench.

 

[Fetch Fletch]

How in gods creation dies rusyn get dropped and Ba comes in.

Are we even trying to get promoted

Apparently no, as it would cost too much to compete
