Let Rohl try to talk his way out of that but who would listen? When we did create chances, one from Poveda excepted which the keeper did well to turn round the post, the ‘quality’ of strike, if quality is the right term to use, was absolutely fucking abysmal.

Depends if Rohl goes back to basics and not think we can play Bannan in a 2 in midfield Be a blow if Poveda has done his hamstring - not likely to see him again this season if that is the case. But he doesn't seem to have grasped that 4 attacking players leaves us defending most the match, chasing shadows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hirstys 12th Pint Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Very poor result. Find it difficult to believe Rohl, Powell and Pederson have sat down and agreed how we set up today. As others have said have Ipswich not been scouted ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M42Owl Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Conceding 6 is always bad. But angry? No. The two teams above us had easily winnable games whilst we had one we all expected to lose. They got a point between them and we’re no further off safety than we were this morning. Possible Injury to Poveda aside, overall, its a good set off results.

Bellsview Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 5 wins from 8 and we are definitely safe. 4 wins from 8 and it’s still possible. Less than that and who knows? Today’s result changes nothing. We’re still in charge of our own destiny. If there is a game(s) that we might look back on it’s that 4-0 reversal at The McAlpine (and the home defeat to Millwall), not the one today. They are the results that might have the biggest impact on where we finish in the league this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it just re-iterates that whilst we got promoted last season it was built with no coherent plan. We have played catch up as a result, in a league that rarely permits you to do that.

Well this is where some supporters need to step back a bit regarding Roel being the next Klopp. He's learning as he goes along, today he made mistakes with formation, but he's part of a coaching team so surely Powell and co have input. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owl71 Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 We don’t draw many with Röhl. He picks and sets up his sides to get at the opposition’s weaknesses. Yep, when the wheels come off they really do come off. With a more cautious approach we’d basically already be down, but yes we may have avoided any single game as embarrassing as today. I don’t want to get relegated while avoiding any really humiliating results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t want to get relegated while avoiding any really humiliating results. I think you have to pick and choose when it's appropriate to try different things though. Football is about finding weaknesses for sure, but sometimes it's nullifying the opposition strengths first. Rohl needs to accept we ain't out footballing teams with this squad, keep it tight, frustrate teams and perhaps sneak one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradowl Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Not been today as I'm away on hols, (Benidorm the place is mental) 🤣 Weren't expecting much but 6-0, I couldn't bloody believe it. Having seen starting line up I'm a little bit confused by the team that started, we've looked ok with 3 central defenders and 2 wing backs getting forward at every opportunity so I'm surprised to see we went with what looked an attacking formation. Playing teams at top maybe it would have been better to park the bus and try and grind out a result. I don't like knocking Rohl because I think he's going to be a top manager but he's still got a bit of learning to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkowl Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 I mean it's admirable in his post match interview that he did not want us to be just there to defend. I mean with Moore last season it felt like we parked the bus playing a lot of sides even with the better players. It was refreshing that he took full on responsibility for the tactical approach, he was let down by the players application at the same time but for me it stemmed by changing the formation from 3 5 2 type. Whilst identifying their left back as a potential weak link, it nullified Johnson as a wing back. Iorfa equally is not a right back. We have all identified really that Bannan / Vaulks as a midfield 2 simply does not work. So we seemed to be outnumbered both on the wings and in the middle at the same time. And I like the fact that whilst Ipswich have all this quick pass and move, it's topped by an old school centre forward that bullied the defence as well. To add that we conceded from a set piece again We conceded in first half injury time again We conceded straight after half time which seems reasonably often On the basis we have 8 Cup Finals now, we know that requires being in the game for as long as possible. You can't be experimenting formation wise in these Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A barbed attack on the infrastructure of our own club? I mean you can interpret that either way. It's a compliment to Ipswich or a dig. I mean my opinion has always been that Chansiri's funds have not changed the underlying foundations of the Club. You can argue money has been spent, but its little more than a patch up job. In the meantime more Clubs have leapfrogged us. People will argue that funds are spent on the players, that will always be the priority for sure. But when does it become chicken and egg. Ok players will always focus on the £s paid but if you get similar offers where you going. The one with shiny facilities or not At Wednesday it goes further, I mean we have a very streamlined top management structure, but can you run a fairly complicated business where Chansiri is the sole decision maker. Not for me to tell 1867 how to do their work but this is really where I would be focusing. I don't think we have regressed per se, more others have progressed and have a long term plan that is now bearing fruit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkowl Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 To add plenty will argue that Chansiri is appearing to have changed philosophy. But it always feels we are followers of fashion never the leader. That Chansiri might change his mind on a whim anyway. If we end up relegated, I cannot see Rohl volunteering for a season in League 1 on his CV. In any event Chansiri will want an immediate return so the recruitment policy will focus on achieving that not surviving in the Championship. Groundhog Day !
