Agreed re today but I don't think we were allowed much chance to do anything against Ipswich, such was their comfort. The odd long ball was tried and alas Connolly couldn't hang on to it. As for the tempo we were chasing the ball all over the park, difficult to impose ya self when a team has such control.
Philogene is God, what a larker this guy is, Well deserved lead, need a 3rd goal just to give us a cushion.
I think Tuesday and their performance had a lot to do with us letting them gain a foothold and momentum due to how we where set up. Once that was established there was no way back for us. As LR has admitted he/we just got it wrong
Twine’s been much better today, as has Traoré. I do wonder how much more of a threat we’d be on the break if we had another direct, pacey winger like Lokilo on the other side. Philogene is giving them nightmares.
Well they've just scored 3 in the first half against Preston. I suppose they're letting them gain a foothold and momentum due to the way they are set up as well?
Frustration due to educating themselfs and buying into playing slow possession based football at the request of Rosie as that's how we are going to play and now he's changed it up and playing a higher tempo and more direct style, so they are going to have to re educate themselfs all over again
Great first half performance. Sloppy goal conceded but didn’t panic. Philo on fire. They’ll have to change or risk players getting sent off. we need to keep on the front foot as they will create chances from dead balls. Their summariser thinks they’ll revert to 5 at the back
Absolutely no idea what they are or aren't doing and quite frankly I couldn't care less as it's not our game and how that games going has the square route of **** all to do with our game against them. We got it wrong LR has admitted that and we have made noticeable changes today and it's showing with the performance in the first half.
Great mixture of long and short balls played and importantly entertaining football and great to watch.
