Excellent today. His link up with Sakamota is looking first class.

Definitely needed the subs coming on. It gave us a boost of energy and we looked dangerous. Thought Palmer was sharp and changed the tempo.

Common factor between recent clean sheets and last season's clean sheet record - Jake Bidwell. Out of contract at the end of the season isn't he? Need to get him signed.

In spells some of the best football of the season. Some of the pass and movement was brilliant. Just need to work on the sloppy periods of play if we are going to step and get wins against the better teams. Didn't think Thomas started great but him and Kitching are an impressive partnership. Van...

Best combination all season between Van Ewijk and Sakamota - the pace and weight of pass between the two has been brilliant. Sakamota also has the intricacy that fits nicely with O'Hare's. Exciting stuff. We just need Simms and Wright to show some confidence and strength.

I still have more faith in Godden finding the net than anyone else.

Fantastic player for us and started well for them. Difficult though to show his potential in such a poor team. I think a return to the Netherlands is most likely at the end of the season.

Yep, Godden deserves more respect. A player can be out of form and have limitations (pace) but let's remember how important a player he has been for us. Even with him missing a penalty, I have more faith in him putting an opportunity away in the box than any other player we have. He gives his...

True, there were some under performers. However, due to the changes we looked unsure and the natural connections and understanding which had come together in last couple of matches, were not there. Hard for anyone to be on their A game in these circumstances

Collins 6 (one semi-decent save but got lucky with his risky distribution) Van Ewijk 6 (good recovery runs but otherwise ordinary) Thomas 6 (in the main did okay but a few too many errors on the ball) Kitching 7 (didn't do much wrong. I like the way he moves the ball forward quickly) Bidwell 7...

Ipswich are so well drilled at what they do, it was bizarre to think an experimental setup including two players who have had little match practice was going to be effective. Certainly have it as plan B (or C) but to start off this way was a big gamble.

Back to back wins; 3 clean sheets; players at last looking like they can play together. How about we change the formation and starting 11.

At least Ipswich will have not prepared for this!!

Well if that selection works then it is a Robin's master stroke. To me it seems utterly bizarre. That's why I am not a football manager I guess.

No, to sit in with O'Hare on the right.

His punch from the freekick which he directed downwards into the penalty area (which he could have easily caught) and him coming out of his area to tackle in the LB area which was very risky. Although, his positioning as a sweeper keeper was useful for keeping possession, I just felt he was a...

Collins 6 - harsh maybe given the clean sheet but his decision making wasn't great Van Ewijk 7.5 - that's what he can do when he runs to the byline. Some excellent recovery runs too Thomas 7 - pretty solid again. Some decent headers Kitching 8 motm - some excellent defending and looks to...

Allen has shown some nice touches. Seem to lack ideas when we get close to their area. We need Sakamota more involved somehow. Godden hardly touched the ball so not getting any service.

Oops I am wrong!
