It is early I don’t want to overreact too much. Just seems most teams are set up front foot early on. In the Leeds game they were talking about how 80+ goals over a season gets you promoted. We aren’t auto promotion contenders but we didn’t set up in a way where we can even dream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petehinton Posted August 6, 2023 Report Share Posted August 6, 2023 2 hours ago, Supersonic Robin said: Nice of him to have his annual decent performance today then! FWIW, I always felt we made too many excuses for Palmer re 'setting up the side around him'. IMO, he never took enough responsibility for improving his own performances and making it work for himself within the team. By contrast, I think Wells showed how a player can still contribute even in a system that's fair from ideal for them. Hmm maybe. A mixture of things. Remember he got put left wing a fair bit the season before last, and was playing through injury too. Happy we got him off the wage bill, no hesitation. But I certainly don’t think he was ‘stealing a wage’ or ‘didn’t care’ or ‘didn’t try enough’ or anything like that, confirmed by Pearson too.

Lanterne Rouge Posted August 6, 2023 Report Share Posted August 6, 2023 Wes Burns starting for Ipswich. I doubt there`s many on here that thought we would see him in the Championship again after he left us. I know I didn`t. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Its Smith Posted August 6, 2023 Report Share Posted August 6, 2023 Ipswich were struggling but just nearly scored twice. Sorry but due to having quite a few mates that are Ipswich fans I am pro Ipswich! Despite disliking Ashton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted August 6, 2023 Report Share Posted August 6, 2023 Interesting quote from text commentary, bit of a reality check for Ipswich- granted Sunderland away is one of the harder games at this level. Not sure they'll go down but this top 6 stuff feels daft on their strength of their squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steviestevieneville Posted August 6, 2023 Report Share Posted August 6, 2023 2 hours ago, JoeAman08 said: Watching today’s games shows how far behind we are tactically from everyone else imo. Everyone pressing high and getting their fullbacks forward. Athletic all over pitch. Yes it was one game yesterday but we set up to limit opposition instead of taking the game to them. My optimism has gone down considerably after one weekend. Quite a few not fit for us first game. Which is another concern tbh but see how we get on with everyone fit. The talk of troubling the top half from the club itself looking like they are lacking awareness. The games today are refreshing to watch. We didn’t set up to limit Preston at all . The exact opposite happened Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
