Ipswich (H) - Sat 24th Aug | PL | Pre-Match Thread

Gundog's gonna get one hell of a cheer if and when he comes on

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

Without Rodri and Phil on the bench our attacking options aren't great. A back up striker would be the icing on the cake in this window

We need a smart midfielder we can bring off the bench who’s got a knack for scoring heavy goals.

Shame we don’t have one.

 

[eastmanc]

Same side come on you Dolly Blues.

 

[stonerblue]

Cant wait to see Savio again.

Flashes of brilliance so far from him. Great prospect

 

[Damanino]

wow expected Grealish to be fixed starter at least early on but Savio, Doku must be doing better in trainings.

 

[Gumzy97]

We played similarly to Peps second season here last week. Savio and Doku similar to Sterling and Sane, I reckon that’s what we will see this season.

 

[TonyM]

Is kick off at 3:20 like last season?

 

[Streetsweeper]

I know it’s petty but I’m kind of with you on this.

And the fawning over the rag mini-me manager is ridiculous, fuck em, hope the score line is “disrespectful”.

Exactly, but then I’m a petty, vindictive man when it come to this stuff.

We’ll amble out when good and ready.

 

[BlumerMooner]

Never felt more like singing the blues…

 

[B\connellblue]

Grealish reduced to a bit part player now. Not looking great for him here.

 

[pennblue]

Glad savinho's knock wasn't too bad and he's back in the swing.

Hope it's a dominant first half, wrap the viking in cotton wool after a hat trick by the 55th minute. Get gundo and mcatee a run out. Would be an ideal Saturday.

That said, here's to the tense 1-0 win and three points in the bag :)

 

[johnny crossan]

Not happy again, Foden is ill, Savinho not fully fit they say and still Jack doesn't get a start

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

I just want to show my appreciation for whoever chooses the music on the concourse around 219, putting ring of fire on when Brighton scored.

 

[Ducado]

The Ipswich fans look a bit star struck it’s a massive achievement for them to be here so fair play to them

 

[Stiff Little Wingers]

Grealish reduced to a bit part player now. Not looking great for him here.

Hang on, we’ve only had 1 game

 

[Eccles Blue]

Gundog's gonna get one hell of a cheer if and when he comes on

He certainly did!! :-)

 

[Gabriel]

I would imagine that midfield threesome requires a little more pace out wide to generate chances. It’s also likely to be our best way of starting quickly and getting the cushion needed to rotate. There will be plenty opportunities this season for Guardiola to permulate and include Grealish.

COME ON BLUEBOYS

No need for AC/DC though!
