    New about here (though used to pop up on the old 606 now and then) so saying hi. Great League Cup draw, but focussing on today. See Ipswich have Murphy in their squad for the game – not a great finisher, but has pace which might trouble our less-than-mobile central defence. Hope O’Dea plays – not wild about him, but as an ex-teammate of Murphy’s, he might know how to handle him?

    Welcome!

    For all O'Dea's faults, he looks like he's very capable of putting himself about in the tackle and I'd have thought his knowledge of the Ipswich players in training will give him a helping hand. Of course Chopra, Bowyer, Andrews et al. will be harder to anticipate. Personally, I predicted before the game that he'd be nervous in front of a jeering Ipswich crowd and might end up making a couple of howlers. I'm certain they'll put at least one past us, but maybe the lad will have the game of his life.

    Come on you Whites!

    Aye, O'Dea might also have a point to prove - hope he plays a blinder. At least he won't underestimate Murphy, if he plays. This is what the boy can do: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64dG9FGBo2U
    Sure they will put one past us - I excite myself at night about the days when we scored a goal, shut up shop and went home winners...

    Im just starting to come round to O'Dear. He played so badly against southampton i think he should never have played again. But in CB, he looks much better
