PL Ipswich Town (h) post match thread

After a less than auspicious start, we made it look easy, and won the game at a canter.

Erling was his usual brilliant self in front of goal, and took his goals extremely well. The penalty was a typical Håland example of how to take a spot kick.

But the star of the show was, once again, Rico. He was fantastic, and seemed to be everywhere and was always available to accept a pass.

It was great to see Mr Boulders back in a City shirt. I know at least one poster, who will be over the Blue Moon.

Nice to see Jack back and James come on for a cameo, along with Matheus.

But the biggest cheer - apart from the goals - of the afternoon was saved for the returning ice cream salesman. It was fantastic to see Ilkay back in a Blue shirt, and though he didn’t set Etihad alight, he showed flashes of what we missed last season.

All-in-all, a good workout for the lads, and more valuable minutes in their legs.

Oh, and by the way, we’re top of the League.

As you say, Rico was absolutely fecking brilliant, been MOTM in both games so far. He's the same size as SWP, 5ft 5" but his hair puts him a couple of inches above that, he's absolutely superb, he'll be a regular in the team this season, he's a proper talent, he's so good.

10th hat trick for us in barely over two seasons, and the first hat trick of this season, in the second game.

23rd of his career at 24 years of age.

But did you triple point him :)
 
That was a an enjoyable game and I did think the team would have been a little more distracted with the occasion of Gundo's return but Pep managed that side well.
 
Blistering first half hour and then Ipswich well and truly parked the bus.

Hugely dominant performance; don’t know if was a coincidence but after Gundo and Jack came on City seemed to take even more control of the game.

Very encouraging start to the season. Keep key players fit, especially Erl, Kev and Rodri, and we should have another good season.

Had to laugh at the stat that after scoring today, Danny Wellbeck has 100 career goals
Haaland has been with City, two seasons and two games and has 94 just for us

Haaland is only just over 100 career goals behind Alan Shearer's career goals. Haaland can match Shearer's career goals by about 26 years old. Crazy.
