Vital Champions League
Obi...2 fuck ups in the same goal, takes some doing that.
Two missed chances and a howler for their goal... Obi is struggling. That said, I seem to remember a certain Dan Burn being an absolute disaster in his first couple of games. 5 out of 11 of today's team have never played a League game before. Let's not be too harsh. If they're still making simple mistakes like this after ten games, I'll be a lot more worried.
All things considered, that was a decent half. Could/should be 3 apiece.
I agree it is ashame because if we had got bought over a month ago. I think we could of bounced straight back or at very least come close. But now we have lost to many players and I think staying up would be a huge success.Quality of play at this level is so poor. Ipswich have one of the stronger squads at this level and they are rubbish. If Ipswich were half decent they'd have us dead and buried already, but if we were any good we'd eat them alive. It shows how potentially easy it is to go up in this league if you have a good manager and smart recruiting.
Our lads are working hard, giving it a good go and not let their heads drop - can't fault the effort. But we are all over the place defensively which isn't really too suprising under the circumstance in one sense but in those areas players are losing their individual battles too easily and frequently. I think our 3 young lads are really struggling and a couple of senior players around them who need to carry the weight like Evans haven't contributed like they should.
As long as it's 1-0 you are never out of it and Ipswich are not up to much, but i fear we're too short on quality to turn this around and think they will get chances and end up extending their lead. Loved to be proven wrong.
Krasner will probably be on the phone at half time touting Pearce and Garner round for 10k each. Not much else left to sell at this point.
