Velrman and JPVH. Very good.

Mitoma and Minteh patchy, but borh had their moments

Baleba an absolute beast.

Hinsh, Welbz and Ayari really good

Rutter, Verbruggen OK

Dunk not at his best

Genuinely don't think it was a bad performance.

Ipswich putting in the kind of performamce that kept us up under Hughts.
How do you feel Fabio did?

Hinshelwood played well and got better as the game went on. He's genuinely a really good player. I was quite surprised he went off and today was the first time I saw he could definitely do it in midfield. Perhaps even more so than ful back. His passing and positions were good and he's definitely beefed out a bit.

Second half he was very creative.

It was just a very frustrating match tbh. I still feel we aren’t really looking like a “team” yet, in the sense I don’t think players quite know where to be, where their teammates are going to be etc so we look a bit disjointed and the passing was awful at times (from everyone!) but that’s all things that’ll come good with time and training, it’s not a worry.

Bit of an early season feel to some of the performances, like Mitoma still getting back to his best. Wieffer and O’Riley still to come into a midfield where Baleba is getting better by the game and Ayari has been a real bonus. Players showed a good attitude and made Ipswich look really poor first half. It seems a bit chaotic at times but I think that might just be a side effect of the very aggressive high press. It usually seems to work in our favour.

Different day, one of those first half shots goes in and we win 3 or 4 nil. Ipswich made good subs and began to believe.

Still think the potential of the team ia frightening considering so many players are still bedding in or have been out with long injuries.

Annoying 0-0 but it happens. Not the biggest shock today by any means.

It's pathetic that he is still taking free kicks, especially one in that position at that point in the game. It was so obvious he was just going to twat that into the wall, as usual.

We joked “Do you remember when Dunk used to take them?”

Then fck me, he did.

We haven’t dropped anyone. Pedro came back from the international break injured. Pervis hasn’t started a league game all season. Wieffer has been out injured since the United game and Grudu has only just started full training after arriving injured. Neither of those last two were involved in any international football.
I'm not disagreeing with you, but we are only 4 games in and it seems yet again we have an array of players injured. Are we cursed?

Nice one.

I thought we played alright without looking particularly threatening in front of goal. One of those games.

A point is better than none.
Our finishing and general decision making in the last third was very, very poor.

Was disappointed then saw the Liverpool result.
