Need to make sure we are solid for this one or could be on the end of a big drubbing. Should be setting up like we did against Southampton
Expecting a poor run of form now. A few losses on the bounce with the odd draw thrown in. Everyone’s feet back on the ground.
Who's the maniac commentating? Can you imagine if Philogene scores a goal like Ipswich did here what grief Coyle and the rest of the City defence will get?
Get in their heads early, once you’re in there, there’s no escape, it’s permanent. They’ll always feel submissive, weak & ill equipped to deal with those superior to them. Here we go again beating a **** side, from a **** city (town) who have **** supporters, who normally play in a **** stadium, but not this Tuesday night. City 3-0 The Weak Minded
No Crooks. Little sign of Lundstrum. Less of McBurnie. Guess Gyabi comes in, otherwise the midfield/attack stays the same. Does Ajayi come in for Egan? Or, as well as, in a back 5?
Can see him plumping for a back 3 here, don't think he'll have enough faith in Gyabi to chuck him in. So using previous lineups as the guide, Drameh will come in for Coyle, Ajayi for Crooks.
I expect to see a back five on Tuesday night, there is no way we can allow Ipswich to have 26 shots like we did with QPR. Philogene is going to give Coyle some problems as well.
Our 3 clean sheets this season have been with a back 4, Coyle, Egan, Hughes and Giles twice, Drameh, Ajayi, Hughes and Giles the other. Do we need to look at the midfield first?
QPR fans thought we made it possible for them because ‘we came to play ‘ and not spoil. They also said we were very honest/ fair so gave them room and time to play . Millwall were physical a few weeks ago and that’s what Rangers struggle against . Last pint they thought we were small ‘ With Slater and Amir we are . Tractor boys not happy they play Rosie ball !
Our midfield lacks presence and as yet we havent 'still' got a leader on the pitch, the closest being McB. Imagine if we could sure up the midfield with an enforcer...
