Barton off for Henry - Barton has been goodish this half. Terrible. Seems they are able to pick us off easily on attack because we only have one striker - where have I seen that before?

Yet our slow defenders have kept them one scramble in the box, whereas we've had 3 clear chances. Not saying it's going great but people seem to be looking for faults all the time. Make that 2 chances for them.
 
I know that Henry hasn't exactly been a stand out performer for us (to put it lightly), but he has enough experience at this level to perform, if given a chance. It's this kind of gritty game where he may do a good job for us. We need someone with a bit of bite.

Please note the numerous caveats in the above!
 
To be fair the defensive line has worked hard and done all that could be asked of them.
Bit concerned they might tire and become exposed by their forwards turn of speed as the second half goes on. We need to push up ffs
 
I'm not happy so far, which is the same I feel about our season so far. We have, on paper, a great team. There's no excuse for them not to be playing great football.

We still have that slurring left over from the last two seasons and players are making silly, little mistakes that lead to trouble. Something is wrong with the motivation and the concentration of the team. I put that down to Harry. Also, Harry simply is not finding the plans to break teams down well. Are they even researching teams?
 
Decent game, hasn't been without goalmouth action. We are creating chances but look vulnerable when Ipswich attack at speed.
 
Shame that Austin missed his two chances, lucky that they haven't scored as well. Honours even, but we need to get SWP or Phillips on. Why did Henry come on and not Phillips?
We have played more long balls in that half than we have all season, why?
 
Another good match thread 9s.

How are you lot coping? When we went to Portman Rd we had one of those "game of two halves". First half was the worst we've played all season and deserved to be behind but we came back in the second with a much improved performance to win 1-2.
 
Benayoun looks a terrible signing, not suited to this league. Some nice touches by Kranjcar but largely anonymous. O'Neil doesn't contribute much. Barton stands out with his workrate. Carroll largely anonymous also. This midfield is not suited to this league. Bring Phillips on FFS. I can't believe I am saying this but I would nearly prefer to see SWP playing<yikes>

Henry came on because we have the most negative manager in the entire league, a 5 man midfield without a single winger with 3 of them on the bench. He is a complete and utter joke who is massively handicapping this team.

In what universe in Oneill and Henry better than Oneill and Philips? Especially as Philips has been MOTM a lot recently while the only thing Henry does is set up goals for the opposition.
