*Sigh* He's always composed in front of the cameras. He's very deliberate about it and Pearson acknowledged his consistency all season, as dour as it may be. You're looking for things that aren't there. He's very emotive during games and was beaming on the pitch during and after the game - that's the true face. I've already covered multiple times how two of our five goals were what you could call 'classic Enzoball' (Ndidi's and Vardy's goals). The others were a high press turnover, a long range strike and a direct counter attack. It's a bizarre take to assume Maresca didn't set us up this way (and therefore assuming that the players defied his tactics). So many seem to not get the idea and intent, or even the pragmatism, of his tactical style. Even fewer take into account the quality and style of the opposition. It's clear that Maresca and his team spend a lot of time analyzing the opposition (I base this on the press conferences and the many tweaks before and during games) and that the opposition most often try to surprise us tactically as a result. TLDR - don't blame Maresca when it goes bad and then discredit him when it goes well. That's just resentful.

DGAS, as long as we get promoted

People are being a bit daft here. Two of our goals were classic "Enzoball", only the last one was a counter.

It was just a high press and then exploiting the gap with our wide men playing really wide. First goal came from Faes 'winning' a 50/50 on halfway line, second goal was well-worked and a classic Enzoball goal from Ndidi, third goal was a Fatawu belter (like Bouremouth, y'know, the one he tries so often), fourth goal was another Enzoball goal and the fifth was a classic counter.

Get in line

Interestingly, this makes it 9-1 on aggregate against So'ton...

Fatawu just stat-padding now...

Only need to hold on for another 12 minutes!!

EFL conspiracy still a thing? One thing is sure, the officials want Leicester and Leeds out of the Championship

If it's that clear, then there's no excuse for the Assistant Ref not to see it...

Yet I cannot remember us being this porous besides against Cov first game. Yes, the midfield left our defense horribly exposed, but dear me. When we cannot intercept crosses with three tall centerbacks, then I despair...

With the same amount of divine intervention in the remaining games we could almost rival Ipswich.

He channeled Danny Simpson/Wes Morgan big time today!

For all the criticism and groans he gets, he's been worth his place today - and if we get a result today, all his teammates need to give him a big pat on the head!

This is too much for my heart this. How this game isn't 3-7 is beyond me.

And Mavididi, KDH, Fatawu, Winks, Faes, Vestergaard, Ricardo... they've all missed big chances this year. But yes, it's ridiculous, especially per Vardy's standards, how many the strikers have missed.

All our strikers are!

wtf is with our strikers this season... jesus almighty! None of them can finish!

Shhh, don't! The haters won't like it.

I'm amazed at how many have so quickly thrown in the towel. It's like our fate is already sealed even when it's still in our hands. If the team lacks spine, then parts of our fanbase are doing their best to mirror them.

Are there any stats available about how jammy Ipswich have been this season? I mean, all credit to their determination and never say die attitude, but I cannot recall such consistent good fortune with late winners, deflected goals and penalty calls.

We were excellent and actually proved that our squad is superior to all else in this league. I thought we had turned a corner from a confidence perspective after the last seasons, but we clearly haven't. It's astonishing how badly our squad has reacted to a few bad results, even with decent enough performances.

The flavours of the ice cream can't be a coincidence either...

No one is talking about it and it was only rarely mentioned before the group stages

Hah! Leicester fans are often harsher towards their own. KDH has had naysayers since before he broke into the team.
