Fair play to the lad. First half tried too hard to impress and do the ‘extraordinary’ with flicks and tricks. Second more effective by doing simple things quickly and well. I wonder whether he will replace Tats as a starter for rest of the season, or be used in the Rudoni role, or be used as an...

Also on at least one occasion second half the right back had one foot off the ground when taking a throw as well as numerous times having one foot over the line.

At other end of pitch so not clear sight Of either. Thought no penalty with Haji one…6 of one etc but then haji just in front as they fell…would not have been happy if we conceded that. V different for me than the Southampton shout. Re EMC… thought if he went down straight away in challenge it...

A different player today. Ran, fought, harassed and chased back: excellent from him. And deservedly scored

Get a win today and all will seem fine. Still in the position that every other team in the division would change places with us.

But bbc still had to mention it in 90th minute.

RIP. A genuinely good guy liked by all who met him. Real hard man on the pitch…never shirked his role as captain and leader.

So Thomas missing next 3….stupid

Defensively all over the shop. Full backs ok going forward but defending they don’t close space or challenge or organise.

V fair analysis. Ipswich better team from the first whistle to the last. How it was all square at ht was a mystery. Apart from our keeper you were better in every position; quicker to the ball, better use of it, stronger in the tackle and worked as a unit. I’m not convinced the wright penalty...

What was frustrating was that we didn’t challenge for any second balls. We were sluggish in and out of possession. When grimes not at his best we are relatively poor. Back 4 all over the place and midfield non existent. EMC too engaged in trying to muscle the defender instead of beating him on...

A team that will be hard to topple. Weren’t at our best but still won…and stretched our lead over second and third. Can’t play scintillating football every game but getting results in such circumstances is the stuff of champions

Agree about it being season defining. Backs to the wall second half and the character and togetherness of the team and Lampard showed through. Supposedly saints the inform team yet first half they were a distant second best and second half despite throwing everything forward we worked so hard as...

Boro 2 down

Can’t fault anyone after da silva off. Top marks all round. Considering Milan looked like he was throwing up as he left pitch and Torp looked like he still suffering with it. Excellent spirit and togetherness from whole squad
