Ipswich Town (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

Really enjoyable game from soup to nuts … as the yanks say.

Excellent team performance all round capped by some brilliant individual gameplay from Kova, Phil, Haaland, ending with a lovely cushioned header from McAtee…

We looked much fitter than in previous games and had better legs across the 90 minutes. Can’t wait for the reinforcements to arrive and give us that extra push to chase Arsenal down for second……and who knows if the bin dippers have a wobble we might have a tilt at the title

Upwards blues.
 
Really enjoyable performance, Doku sublime, Phil fantastic and Kev terrific. Everyone else very good. When we hit our stride we were so composed going forward. This'll spur us for the second half of the season, travelling Blues brilliant as ever.

They would need to have a monumental collapse - 12 pts and with the goal difference it might as well be 13 - they would need to lose 3 games and then we beat them as well plus a draw somewhere....obviously not impossible but how many teams are capable of beating them?

They'll lose/draw a fair few before the end of the season. But no-one else is good enough this to win 10 in a row to put real pressure on them.

Really pleasing today. Yes, v Ipswich. But our team have become bad players overnight. Our entire team pivoted around Rodri. His absence makes the role of everyone else 20% harder. Players just starting to get used to it and believe in themselves and each other again after some hefty gut punches. Finishing 3rd and 2 cup finals will be a great end to the season, no reason why we can't.
 
More like it , now we need to continue the wins.

McAtee deserves more time on the pitch high time for Pep to give it to him.
 
Not wishing to think we are back to our best, but at least we put the game to bed early, unlike the games against the Scum, Everton and Brentford, when we blew 7 points which would have given us a fighting chance of the title and nailed on Champions League, sanctions permitting. Nunes did OK today, but we definitely need new blood at right back and defensive midfield, at least until Rodri is fit again. Maybe Johnny Stones would help, and a fully fit Ake makes the defence more solid.
 
I can’t remember a better performance this season.
Let’s hope it continues.
 
Still not at our best where games like today, the opposition would hardly have a shot so we are still conceding a lot more attempts on our goal than previous seasons but we took most of our chances today that we haven’t been doing for a lot of this season.
Much better today but unless we address the midfield in this window, better teams will punish us
