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

The lad has ability but last week screamed that he needs a rest. But what does Bealio do? He drops a striker who finally looks like he may have something. I wonder if the spec that Speakman used was along the lines of - must be quite negative and have an inferirity complex.

It's like we're picking the team based on how much we can increase their value more than trying to win games
 

Rusyn’s wife and family got their visas the back end of last week so my marra tells me they are over here and Rusyn was given a couple of days off training to get them settled etc.

My marra also says Moore is a done deal so I don’t 100% believe him.

He’s from Amble too.
 
If Jobe makes so many appearances are we on a promise from his brother to sign. Can’t see any other reason how he keeps his place

If Pritchard plays quite tight behind Jobe it could work.
If he sits back nowhere near then we will be all over the place.

I don't mind if Ba is picked or not, but dropping Rusyn is insanity.

This - okay BA in the wing for Roberts I’m happy with that - however dropping Rusyn who actually looks like he will score goals and works his f***ing arse off is a joke.

Especially when he’s scored his for league goal and Jobe has been extremely poor for a while
 
What did Beale say in his interview?

Haven't got the sound on. Could see his stupid face yapping away

How the fuck is he starting Bellingham

Its early days for Beale but that is a shocker of a team. Firstly, we are playing Ipswich who are second but are on a poor run of form. We finally have a striker who looks like a threat and may have goals in him and he's dropped to accomodate Ba, who has been awful in recent games. Secondly, he's seen Burstow and he can see how he is the worst player in the squad and yet he keeps including him instead of Mayenda, who go a couple last night. Beale is basically saying that little old Sunderland can't really compete with Ipswich so we need to pack our midfield. So much for a new manager bounce. If we lose tonight there's no defending Beale. We need to get something out of this game or fans will turn and it will be stark for the club.

Couldn’t agree more sir.

That is true, but then it goes back to exactly what Beale was saying. Impress in training and games and you play. Rusyn mustn't be impressing enough.

He impressed in actual games though.

He worked his his bollocks off against Newcastle and scored against Preston.

Not sure what else he can do?

He will have access to all the matches, if he hasn't watched them then he's an idiot

Of course he has. He will have watched every single game this season. Yes, he's getting to know players but how can there be any evidence that Burstow is better than Mayenda, when Burstow is the worst striker we have had in living memory and that includes Danny Graham, Ashley Fletcher and James Vaughan - Burstow is a worse player than all of them.

I have been firmly in the give Beale a chance group but the decision to drop Rusyn is stupid . How the hell can you expect a striker to make a difference unless they have a run in the side

I agree in theory. The only thing I will say is that it really depends on, not results, but the strategy we are going onto the pitch with, and whether it works. I don't know enough about how Ipswich play to know the best way to beat them. If we play well today, and we can see that it was down to a well thought out plan, I'll put my hand up and say I was wrong. But I just want a striker to get more than 2 games on the trot and a chance for us to play to their strengths. Especially after a good performance and goal recently.
 
18 points behind Ipswich is pretty shite like,no disrespect meant to Ipswich but there's no way we should be that far behind,and they haven't had many points over the past month😳
