i hate to say this, but southampton look like they're going to do a qpr. 4 - 0.

to early to say really

The thing to bear in mind is we were a club languishing at the wrong end of League 1 before Gus took over. We can't play in European Cup Finals overnight , it will take a bit of time

Totally agree with this. It looks like we need to put a lot of work into improve the defence and stability at the moment. I'd be surprised if we'd be able to fix it quickly/

What a pile of shite that was. f*** sake albion.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Dont agree that the system hasnt worked completely...seems we did OK until the defence went to sleep... not sure its the tactic thats wrong.. its the players.

Is it that the defenders are simply not good enough? Or do they go into games unprepared to deal with the skillful players that the opposition are putting out?

In other words ... can this be sorted out on the training pitch?

 

[Mackenzie]

Unlucky lads. Ipswich are a good team in decent form. Time to regroup......its a long season.

 

[Seagull kimchi]

My only hopes for this season were to not get relegated and to finish above Palace - so far so good.

What a pile of shite that was. f*** sake albion.

are you at portman road? its shit being in the championship and 5th and in a new ground !!!!!

 

[Twinkle Toes]

Its not been the best. The international break has come at the right time.

It has indeed.

Enjoy that Falling Down Water tonight folks.

Loan market, but suddenly it seems like we need a lot. What if Vincelot plays full back? How many do we need - a forward, more defensive cover in midfield? full back or two?

 

[BLOCK F]

I like an optimist,but we will just have to agree to disagree.
Oh didn't we let a goal in against Pompey?

No we didn't did we!Anyway I still think the defence is not up to it!

 

[jimhigham]

3 games in a row conceding 3 goals is worrying but not panic inducing. Yet.

 

[Samej]

Ipswich commentater saying 3rd goal exactly the same as 2nd and that our defence are not learning from there mistakes, also that passing ok but no creativity from our forward players , sounds fair .

 

[British Bulldog]

Thank christ we've got a break now, Time to sort a few things out on the training ground and maybe bring in a couple of loan players with decent championship experience.

 

[smelly]

Still 5th?

 

[Clive Walker]

Thank god it's the international break. Time to regroup, get in the loan market and sort the team out.

Don't know,but it would be cheaper if it could!Can't help thinking that it needs strengthening myself!

 

[patchamalbion]

i despise international breaks but i think the squad need this one

It's shit to get in winning positions twice in a week only to give it away with poor defending. Losing four out of five feels like shit as well.
