I think its more we not running through them with the ball or passing through t the middle as we back to keeping the ball being the priority, so the more dangerous attacking moves are deemed too risky, passing it to the wingers again and again is less risky as they got more space, thats why I think we doing it. But we need to mix it up, its far too predictable. Our best chance came in the 37th minute from our one dribble down the middle.

That clearance at end by vesty probably the biggest sprint any of our players made in that half.

This is the issue, its another training session half.

It helps if we utilise all our players, trio of ndidi, daka and KDH outside their box all unmarked. But not a single pass in that area.

We got 4 or 5 players unmarked again and again outside their box but we just keep pumping it wide, way too predictable. Just pass or run through the middle of them with pace. Will either win a free kick or get a clear shot on goal. Its so laboured as if we think we dont need to work for it. Has daka even touched the ball yet?

If you prefer it, rotherham stream cant afford a commentary team, its raw feed.

took until 37 mins for some dribbling and a proper shot at goal, not good enough at the moment.

Was +19 +15 in favour of ipswich over leeds, now it flipped.

Could be 4 points between Ipswich and Leeds before our kickoff against Ipswich.

Leeds got favourable goal difference over ipswich now as well.

The main objective is promotion, once thats mathematically done, then top spot if achievable is second aim in my opinion. clearly Leeds winning is the worst out of 3 possible results, but we have a nice buffer so its not the end of the world, we just keep doing our own job and keep the gap. we will likely back off once top 2 is locked in, not worth risking injuries etc. for it will be the mentality from manager I expect.

4-0

Either will be shattered confidence against us or lessons learned. We might be best off with a 4+ goal ipswich defeat now I think.

I think unless something crazy happens, its probably too much for ipswich now.

3-0 leeds penalty, won from counter.

2-0 ipswich own goal.

Damn, all Leeds at the moment and taken the lead. They so dominant in their games right now. Ipswich are the comeback kings though.

Why only 3 seasons?

The easy way round it is to start this season, and put all the costs on this seasons accounts.

We have a very large capacity issue which the club isnt currently rushing to remedy sadly. There is simply no capacity for general sale. The pent up demand wont last forever, we need extra seats yesterday really.

Indeed, the result will be at some point teams will be fearful of our counter and wont press as much which will in turn improve the results of possession based play, this is why I think the two work well with each other, and its not as a simple as a either all out possession or all out counter.

Seen Enzo's interview now, he made his point we not changing to a counter attacking team, but also said we will do counter attacks occasionally if we need to. Hopefully the interview doesnt make him revert, but I get the impression its a case of him learning what is working and adding the flexibility to the play.

Have you asked them that? Its business 101, to get people through the doors, make it as cheap as possible, the mens game doesnt need it as its an already built brand, but clearly £8 is too much given the attendance levels. If we ever do it make it free and the attendance doesnt go up then I will accept your point. We had almost 2 years of shit football under Rodgers, yet people kept going.

To some people £8 is still a lot of money, we are in a cost of living crisis. Remember there is still the travel expenses etc. Target the market who cant afford to go to the mens game. If you think £8 is nothing then whats the harm in charging £8 less, its nothing right?

I would put them in the top 50 percentile, they have been bad in their previous games, but I am judging them against us. Interesting as well many neutrals say the game against us was the best they have played under rooney as well. The worst team I feel was stoke, they just gave us way too much respect and sat back the entire game, they barely moved across the halfway line, and Vesty was even able to stroll forward with the ball without even the threat of a tackle.
