Match Thread Ipswich Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 6th Dec (74 Viewers)

[Shannerz]

This team is strong and balanced enough to win. Whether it will is a different matter, but I'm no more or less confident than I was yesterday.

[Nick]

Yep, warming up as a back 4.

 

[SBT]

Grimes is made of titanium

Can’t think of a key player I’ve been less worried about having backups for.

 

[shmmeee]

Why the need for a CM? Despite various injuries we still have a strong starting midfield 3 and various capable backup options on the bench.

We’re playing a RB out wide because we’ve had to move Rudoni. We’ll see how Eccles does there, he’s looked better recently but I wouldn’t want him or Allen in for any extended period and Allen isn’t a player you bring on to change a game really.

 

[RoysterE17]

Seeing rudi in the squad has given me added confidence today. Whoever started the rumours of rudi being out please stop the nonsense

Allen helped change the Boro game, we were much better when he came on.

 

[You'll Never Beat McPake]

Pressure is all on Ipswich. They need a result to close gap on autos. We have more than enough firepower. Guarantee Wolfenden comes on scores a late goal. Its the law dont you know

 

[shmmeee]

Nervous now

Surely we’re playing a RB out wide because we don’t have many wingers?

I’m more than comfortable rolling with Eccles and Allen for however long this injury crisis that hasn’t even happened yet lasts.

Surely the issue is out wide then if we have to move rudoni and have a cm on the bench.

It's like moaning that we don't have enough strikers if we have to put Bidwell in Goal because we had to put Simms back up front.

 

[skyblue025]

It’s a strong 11 and decent back up on the bench with Lati, Wolf, Allen and Wright. It’s a win for me.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

The wife has just asked if I can take my daughter to a 4yr old birthday party at a soft play at 3pm as she's not feeling well.

FML.

I assume that the joke 'but we'd be 4 years late to the party' didn't land?

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Nervous now

I’ll be nervous at 2-0

It’s both

 

[Gleneagles65]

Yup.

I honestly can only see a defeat today and that's not me being over dramatic., I promise.

Torp and Saka are so important for us and I think we will miss them.

0-2.

Now go out and prove me wrong, you Sky Blue wonders!!!

Get ready to be proved wrong.

 

[David O'Day]

It’s both

how? Rudi is moving to his best position?

 

[mmttww]

A game too far for our piss thin squad today I feel

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Having Jack Clarke on the bench ain’t too shabby eh

Came on against Middlesbrough and helped steady the ship and we went on to get the winner.

I never used to rate him, but he's become a very useful sub under Frank.

 

[ceetee]

Rudoni may have lined up out wide last week but he didn't give us any width.
Playing KKH wide with Rudoni freelancing makes sense to me

 

[Nick]

Into them early!

 

[mark82]

Anyone know what is up with Torp?

 

[Nick]

Is Rob Gurney on crack? Saying he still can't figure out if it's 3 at the back.

 

[fatso]

Pffhhh. weve got 2 keepers on the bench, shows how confident we are. Not even bothered to name our full number of outfield players.

 

[Nick]

KKH looked rapid then when that ball went over the top.

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Anyone know what is up with Torp?

Ill

 

[Nick]

KKH is going to terrorise their full back every time if we keep playing those passes.

 

[itsabuzzard]

At least Oggy's back

Presumably Torp was a late drop out
I think we always travel with an extra GK

 

[Nick]

They are hitting the deck every 2 minutes and they are getting given.

Dont spoil it !

[pusbccfc]

Horrific refereeing again

 

[fatso]

Ill

Wow that is very old.

 

[Nick]

Could have been a booking for that on Eccles.
