Can any technical nerds outline why Ipswich are so good? They press but it isn’t amazing, they transition but it’s not that fast, their defence always looks vulnerable etc. Are they just incredibly efficient?

I tell you what, that’s a great decision from the linesman.

Good lad Che

Russell Martin is one tan shade away from looking like Rylan

My view from here. If KDH, Ndidi, Ricardo and Doyle stay fit. We go up, and probably win every game from here on in. If not, then I fear for us.

Said on the other thread but with Ricardo and Doyle, we have two more attacking players. This means KDH and Ndidi can play further forward as they’re not having to get the ball from the defence as Ricardo and Doyle bring it forward. This means they can threaten the opposition and drag defenders towards them, meaning the two wingers get more space. And hey presto goals came from out wide again. If we play Ricardo and Doyle in every game, we will improve more and more and KDH will be able to be an attacking threat again as he’ll have the ball far further forward. KDH and Winks have basically been doing the attacking work for 4 players. Even Casadei, is missed in this aspect.

We were literally playing with two more attackers with them. It means KDH and Ndidi don’t have to drop too deep to win the ball, puts them in attacking positions, which then gives the wingers more space. The strikers didn’t miss easy chances today because they didn’t get any, as everyone else was further forward getting chances. Which is what was happening up until February.

I think that Enzo ball does look like that it’s just that with jeopardy; we revert to that.

We’re in the inspire hope phase I see

That’s exactly why we should be wanting a Southampton win. A saints win means we’re a point ahead of Ipswich with a game in hand and with them to play Norwich, Hull and Coventry away.

93 will not be enough. 97/98 minimum will be required.

We made them look poor today in all honesty.

Doyle 100%! MOTM for me.

Saints to beat Ipswich for me.

What an infuriating football club. Where has that been for the past few weeks?

Play offs guaranteed

Doyle’s best game in a Leicester shirt and clear MOTM so far .

VAR gives that as his arms are out of his body.

Good start this.

Doyle and Ricardo will give us a LOT more fluidity in attack which was sorely lacking on Friday.

Nobody doubts that he has the money to fund the club, it’s just that he hasn’t got a clue how to use it competently.

Have no idea how Wardley stayed in with that injury. Clarke should’ve finished him off.

The ring is a blood bath, amazing stuff.

Not us but this thread is wild. Everton are screwed.

This is such a big thing. When was the last time we heard from anyone outside the first team group in a human way? It’s all just PR, unaccountable crap. There is no connection between the fans and the hierarchy. It’s a dictatorship. You stay quiet and we won’t bother you type thing. Infuriating and incredibly out of touch.
