Interesting tidbit on our stats from the Ipswich boss

“I think the intensity they are playing at is really impressive. Their last 10 games or so, they are the team who have run the most in the league in most metrics. They are one of the top teams in terms of their pressing, counter-pressing and possession.

What I can say, in terms of a stylistic and football challenge against a team that are playing with a top intensity off the ball and with a really good structure, bravery and positivity on the ball, and a talented group, I think they are one of the better sides in the league currently for sure.

Makes it sound like we are playing like the finale of every Benny Hill Show.

Swans one, nil with Ronald hitting the back of the onion net.

Starting early mush!

The club paid me to post it

Win this one and I might start believing that a push for a play-off place could be possible.

Cullen up top or Widell as a false 9??

Looking forward to today’s game. That looks like a pretty attacking line-up, I don’t think Matos is going to set us up to play ugly football today. Also v sensible to not ask Franco and Fulton to play another 90 minutes.

Curious absence of Jacks on the train though

Cullen lone striker...

It doesn't work

It's never worked

Just why !?

 

[Swanjaxs]

I fear for Burgess today. It is what it is though.

So , we have the leagues top scorer and he's on the bench. It would only be us doing that. It's not as if there's a quality replacement there for him.
