Take Hunt Off Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Great result , wasn’t very confident the first ten minutes with the fannying about at the back putting pressure on ourselves. Thought the young goalie went on to have a decent game although they weren’t very direct ie a bit like us twenty five passes to get to the edge of our box.Plenty pressure from corners though , be interesting to know if they are any better than us at converting any.Lee mom for shear graft.Thought Bako put himself about without actually achieving much but ten out of ten for effort. Morley steady debut , Fossey good again onwards & upwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely an out of form Dapo is better than a out of form Baka? Baka was played out of position on Tuesday, IEs mistake. Not outstanding today but more than justified being picked down the middle in a "2", for so many reasons. A fantastic win. Great second quarter of game, deserved to be leading at H-T. Ipswich looked the better team for much of the 2nd half but we stood firm - what a pleasure it is to say that - and the crucial first goal was superbly worked.

1969 Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 good performance that Morley has abit of everything likes a tackle,bundles of energy and can pick a pass Overall thought we just about deserved the win Trafford has got abit of a gob on him Forgot how good a win feels coyfwm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree Aimson was excellent on Tuesday, my take on it is that he wanted a left footer to support John a bit down the left because otherwise he had no support at all, with no left winger. I thought it worked quite well and Johnstone played well, but I'm happy for Aimson to come back against a more physical/direct team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morizio Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 After about 20 mins I think we started to get the bounce of the ball. I did think this was 0-0 all over it. Johnstone with a fantastic tackle at the end of the first half. Trafford looked lapsidasical initially but grew into it. Some good saves and that in the second half where he held it from the point blank range header. Suspicions of offside for our goals. A great win though! Bogey team for Ipswich Enjoyed it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutley Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Brilliant win hopefully a springboard to the season. Baka superb. Morley 6/10 debut and Trafford solid apart from flapping at one corner like Dudek. Good team unity and much more promising. All the best to Ipswich for the rest of the season. mutley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantastic today but won’t go forever and with 2 games a week in feb would be my bet Aye, probably. A bit controversial, but sometimes when teams press at the right times and get behind our attacking midfielders, it leaves MJ exposed as he's not the most mobile. I wonder, if in some games where Evatt anticipates us having plenty of possession, if he might look to utilise a more mobile, interchangeable midfield 3. Maybe also offering a quicker press ourselves? Whatever the case, some useful options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveTheRave Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Very happy with that today. Started a little slow then dominated the first half. Thought we were struggling a bit in the second half and they were having most of the possession but then got the two goals. I like the look of Charles and reckon he'll get a few goals for us. Morley and Trafford had decent debuts and Fossey again caused some problems. Still work to be done but great result. Come On You Whites!!!

Johnnyrotten Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 1 hour ago, Arrested development said: Great performance and a much deserved win Trafford and Morley both had good debuts. Trafford looks a similar size to Santos and looks imposing. The defence seemed a lot more resolute today, not just because of the keeper but generally weren't exposed in wide areas. Got that bit of luck that we needed. We need a better version of Baka. He's fucking useless. Couldn't trap a bag of cement. Wins nothing in the air and has absolutely no goal threat. Trafford definitely an improvement. Fair enough to those that rate Dixon and want him in the team but I personally thought Trafford's handling was an improvement. He also looks slightly taller which to me is an advantage if all other things are equal. On Morley, yes he's got something, but if he plays like today for the next 10 games, that's not enough. Gave the ball away with sloppy passes more than Thomasson does, and most of his long passes weren't quite hitting the mark and he generally didn't seem to be involved as much as the everyone else. Had the shot that resulted in the goal which was a plus, but I'm assuming this wasn't him at his best or I'd be concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mounts Kipper Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 About time we went 2 up top, Lee MOM and his best game for a long long time good performances all over the pitch but we seem much calmer and organised now Jones is back he’s a key player for us these days.

Gave a couple of passes away but chased back and won them back, from what I saw today Morley is a massive upgrade on Thomason. And regarding Trafford, he's 6 foot 6 inch., Edited January 15, 2022 by Mounts Kipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leyther_Matt Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Great to see us take our chances today. Improvements still to be made but that was a massive step forward. Trafford will grow in to it with a bit of experience and confidence, and it certainly won’t have done him any harm to keep a clean sheet on his debut. He was sold a little short in the first half when he expected to play out from the back but both Santos and Johnston weren’t interested, and on separate occasions both John and Williams had dreadful body shapes in receiving the ball and put themselves right back in to trouble, but that certainly isn’t on the keeper for me. The handful of fuckwits who were booing after all of three minutes need a reality check and a look in the mirror. Morley showed plenty of energy and again will improve as he gets used to this level, just as Dion is coming more and more in to it with each game. Bakayoko can fuck off though, and then fuck off some more. Built like a brick shithouse but has no heart whatsoever. Would like another one at the ball across goal in first half where surely he was caught on his heels or he’d have reached it, and then on more than one occasion in the second half the ball was literally a yard in front of him and he just wasn’t interested enough to challenge for it. He’s had his chance in a variety of positions and formations now and shown precisely nowt in every one of them. Dapo playing up top probably isn’t a long term solution, but it certainly offered something a little different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolton va va Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Very happy. The first 10/15 minutes were worrying but we weathered their early push & got into the game. Ipswich were a better footballing team than Wycombe which probably shows that we can struggle against more physiocal/shithouse teams. No bad performances, Baka is limited but gave it everything, John had his best game for ages, Trafford & Morley had good ,steady debuts, IE got selection & sub timing spot on, honourable mentions to Jones & Fossey but MOTM goes to the excellent Lee. ( I wonder what the odds are for a play off place, I could be tempted 😊 .....we should only get better ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
