Ipswich 1-1 LCFC - Post Match Thread

[Paninistickers]

Fab game. Really enjoyed it. Fair result. 

 

We weren't at our best but to me, we look a really decent PL team that can force weaker teams to panic. We've actually got some leaders on the grass. Winks, Vesty and Faes were delicious in that last 10 and then let the forward players do their stuff. 

 

Green flags galore

Where’s all the stats posters, that must be the highest xG game so far for us yet all we get is that was 5hit but bet your sweet 1s it will be brought up when we don’t have a single shot in another game.

[Tielemans63]

Love that it was us that ****ed them in added time for once

[l444ry]

Great point. End of.

I think you overestimate the quality of this squad.

 

The most experienced players were nearly all relegated the last time they were in this league. We weren't on promotion form for the second half of last season in the second tier, with almost exactly that starting eleven. People are constantly telling us that our summer business wasn't wonderful either. And our star man is 38 in a couple of months.

 

I'm far from a huge fan of Cooper, based on what I'm seeing, and fear things will get grim at some point. But surely all of the above adds up to a not particularly good EPL side.

And so in order to keep a not particularly good side in the league, we would want to recruit the best available manager to get the absolute maximum possible out of them, would we not?

There's no way we finish below Ipswich this season.

Absolutely not, we simply do not have a squad of players any better than a relegation fight.  
This squad, right now is not of the quality to be midtable in this league. Thats not to say I think we couldn’t improve, but right now we have a manager who’s remit is to survive not thrive - he keeps us up, we shake hands and then we move on to the manger who can carry us forwards.

 

Well, yes we would. Convert 2 of those draws to wins and we’d have 14 points.

Unlike the relegation season at least they're fighting 

[lcfc-fan1126]

Bilal and soumare both seem close to getting into the 11, can't say I'm unhappy I like both of them, not sure who they get in ahead of

Ndidi and winks are both playing well and buonanotte is playing well

I think bilal could play off the left and have justin or kristiansen move up on that side

Everyone tells me it’s all about XG and ours was highest today so those people must be pleased.

this is where the timing charts are important:

 

The little red card I've drawn on is where Phillips gets sent off. You look at that, we create 2 good chances against ten men but barely anything of note for the previously 77 minutes. You cannot rely on opponents getting sent off and having the man advantage as a creative strategy.

We can only force them to panic once they are down to 10 men it looks like to me

I'd never argue with that - it's one of those statements which is always true. I just disagree that any respectable manager would have them comfortably mid-table.

It's expected against the weakest team in the league

Ipswich manager is a good manager but players are average. His style is too chaotic for average players so always going to give up chances. Give him good players/ big club he will batter teams .

we are perhaps the opposite in having steady/ cloggers and a limited manager.

we will pick up points  when we should not and they will be the opposite

Still done well though, ah.

 

Or maybe we should be passing it about at the back, where we'd have no chance of scoring. People would love fawning over that.

[99.1% BLUE]

What is our plan on the pitch !? Someone cooper in define it for me? 
 

I’d be happy for someone to do it, I just can’t see it!

When do the ladies play…?

 

(that’s how interested I am in this after the performance today)

 

🥴🫣

[Pliskin]

It’s incredible when we snatch a late goal the super positive folk come out do the wood work claiming “great point”….. “fab game, really enjoyed it” 😂 

 

The reality was they got a man sent off, and for the majority of the game we sucked ass, again. Luck is what got us a point today.
