Season 23/24 | Ipswich Town v Swansea City | The Official Match Thread | The EFL Championship

[Pegojack]

Ipswich should have been out of sight by now, 4-1 at least. Most likely we'll get a hammering second half, but maybe the football gods have kept it to 2-1 for a reason.....

 

[monmouth]

They’re just a better team than us.

There is the little matter of that, for sure

 

[Nocountryforoldjack]

One pass and they are through us every time. Often offside, often not. Mostly lowed to carry on anyway. They are playing the last man shoulder superbly.

Carving us up like a Matthews turkey

 

[K23]

Ffs get Yates off. He looks like a lost schoolboy.

has contributed nothing this half and would rather see Cullen up there instead which gives us the option of another body in midfield, maybe Cooper or Walsh or maybe take Pato off as well and put both of them on

 

[Jack2jack]

Time for a bit of keep ball, me thinks, slow it down a bit, they are loving the pace of the game.

 

[Captain_Sham]

Football is a strange game. I'm just putting that out there.

 

[sainthelens]

Cabango must come on for Humphreys.

 

[Captain_Sham]

Humphreys showed against Watford, he aint ready for this.

 

[monmouth]

That second goal was really terrible.

What do you think we've been doing? Sideways, sideways, pass forward, first touch straight back, then to the keeper who takes a poor touch and has to welly it.

 

[monmouth]

It has the feel to me of Forest under the Russbot. Just chance after chance after we nick a goal.

We need to come out and play a bit deeper. More compact. Not fall apart and concede 6. Tighten up and hope to get a break. Slow them down by marking their runners properly. Forget the press, they are destroying it.

 

[Swanjaxs]

How we are still in this beggars belief, but we are, just.

2-2 FT

 

[Nocountryforoldjack]

The problem is they have a potent strike force we don't

 

[Muteswan]

No changes.

61% possession evidences your point. 30% of that has been Grimes and Fulton end of the pier show five yard wall passes to each other.

We’ve had our moments. As Sham says, funny game is football. Anything can happen.
