Very tough match. One we obviously should be winning but who knows with Cooper in charge.

We might do alright, he’s got a touchline ban lol

I never want us to lose. I always want every manager to do well and succeed. I can actually understand the Forest loss and saw it coming - better manager, well-coached team that wanted to prove something. Didn't bother me as much as I expected.

 

This one we HAVE to win. Yes, they've been scrappy but they punch well above their weight. I want an organised performance that learns from last week. 

 

But if we lose, I want the board to act. He got it right at Southampton after being backed into a corner but that doesn't demonstrate longer term capability.

I fear we will be well beaten, Kieran McKenna is tactically more astute than Cooper. 

So am I lol

My concern is that our slow starts to both halves after having an inspiration, rousing team talk from the Clueless one will cost us dear. 

 

They will play high energy front foot football and my concern is that we'll wilt 

 

And yes who is not more tactically astute than the twonk?

Have taken the season in blocks of games between the international breaks.
 

From the previous block we got 5 points from the below fixtures, which is probably about the minimum we needed from those. 

 

Palace (a), Everton (h), Arsenal (a), Bournemouth (h) 

 

 

From the next 4 we probably need 6 minimum, so far we have 3. Could really do with points on the board, as our run after this one through to the New Year becomes much more challenging.
 

Southampton (a), Forest (h), Ipswich (a), United (a) 


 

Then in Nov/ Dec hoping for another 6?! Would leave us on 18pts from 19 games. 

 

Chelsea (h), Brentford (a), West Ham (h), Brighton (h), Newcastle (a), Wolves (h), Liverpool (a), Man City (h)

They are very likely to get 2 or 3 against our defence 

delap looks like he’s in some form 

 

we need to score 2 or 3 to get a point 

 

I wonder what odds you’d get on a 3-3 ??

Thats the worry isnt it. With us being a 45 minute team, theyll hammer us for one half. We probably do the same the other half. Who has the nost goals in them

Never seen a more nailed on loss than this, been following this club too long. Not only that but can see this being a springboard for Ipswich and a trapdoor for us.

A ramshackle Leicester side with no plan going to a club who haven't won all season. 

 

It's so painfully ****ing obvious what's happening.

Anyone that’s followed Leicester for longer than half an hour knows what’s coming. I’m just dreading a raucous Portman Road and their fans thinking they’re actually a decent side when they pour out after the match

Tbf everyone said the same before the Southampton game.

Both these teams have the worst expected goals stats in the league. The issue both teams have is they give away too many shots on goal. As others on the forum have pointed out, the hammering we got at Old Trafford was long overdue.

 

Here's my match preview. We've got the better team and squad, but expect this to be a chaotic game where Ipswich give absolutely everything.

Our current defence will not cope with the sustained gung ho attacking (I haven't watched them this season, so I'm assuming Ipswich have continued where they left off last season).  I'm pretty confident we will concede at least 3.  Feels like the end of the Rogers era where you go into a game with high hopes but know what's actually coming.

Not sure, our record V Saints is actually very good and i was quite confident before the game. This one i feel Can see a distaterclass from Justin/Faes and lose by one dodgy goal late on. The crowd will be well up for it as well

The one thing I felt he had was the players were working hard for him despite the horrific "tactics", but as soon as that drops we were going to be bang in trouble and after back to back hammerings where both forest and United were unlucky not to score more it will be interesting to see how we respond.

 

It will be very interesting to see if we continue in the "enzo style" or not he reverted right back to that awful lob sided high wingback disaster last night and got the tanking playing like that deserves. I hope we continue to try and play like we did first half against forest, I believe success can be found if we persist. But I echo your thoughts on this being chaos, every cooper game is disorganised chaos where as Ipswich is more organised chaos, as mentioned the advantage I think they will have over us is their players are still 100% with mckenna, I think the players faith in cooper is fading. Hopefully we find a way to win 🙏

 

Just as a minor point Ben Johnson the Ipswich right back is a west ham youth player they signed on a free in the summer, solid player lots of prem experience 👍
