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


Our defending has been so poor.

Going forward we look clueless most of the time

Where’s our counterattacking gone we used to hit teams on the break so quickly.

They have looked like scoring more than once going forward

The amount of time we spend passing the ball at the back in our own half and yeah I get some of the reasoning behind it, then eventually get further forward and lose it with ease or stop and check inside when in space etc is beyond ridiculous.

Ipswich despite not having that much of the ball at times cut us open with ease and are so sharp in the final third by comparison.

And our defending (and its been that way for sometime) is absolutely crap.
 
Right, what's that got to do with it. They're still a good side.

They drew with Norwich in a derby, drew with Leicester and away to Stoke. Other than a rough result away to a tough Leeds side who have vastly outspent them, it's not the worst of capitulations is it?
Form has everything to do with it , you can't just say they are a very good side without commenting on no wins in their last 5 results, its called having a balanced perspective.
 
This. Thier stats are barely any better than us and watching them play they do not have the quality we do individually. They run around fast and aggressively (which surely they cannot keep up for 90mins), but we should be beating theses if we have any ambitions.
Well said mate. Just think when they quicken the pace we look in trouble and their right winger needs sorting. Typical a useless **** CF finds his scoring boots against us.
