HoylandOwl Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Well, I've spent most of the day waiting for @Germanbird to unleash her special match fred, but because she hasn't... I'll start one! Wednesday's Match Preview Ipswich's Gaffer's thoughts on the game includes: "I expect a very good and tough game against a really strong side" As Reesh highlighted, the referee for the game is Peter Wright who has overseen 2 wins for us in his last two times officiating our games, and his last 2 Ipswich games has seen them lose.

Reesh Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Can't see us being as attacking in our line up tomorrow and Mighten will probably drop out for Marv with James going in the back 3 and Palmer at RWB. I wouldn't make changes for the sake of it in the defensive positions mind. Could perhaps see Gregory not start with Windass up top alongside Smith, FDB or Vaulks to step in. This is an acid test against, one of if not the biggest, challengers for the title and promotion. McKenna has done a very good job since taking over and they press high up the pitch, lack of goals cost em in the run in but they've remedied that and are still solid at the back. A win would bring them within a point of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M42Owl Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 I think if Ipswich press high, I can see us making a few panicky long balls. Hopefully, we can be a bit more measured. Either way, we need someone up top to hold the ball up: Smith and Gregory. Some pace wouldn’t go amiss to exploit the space if they advance too high. And I think FDB bursting through the middle would get them worried. Can’t have them all, so difficult choices for Moore to make. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reesh Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 They have some decent players, Chaplin, Morsy, Burns, Harness and Walton spring to mind. Their fans are buzzing and it is showing in their gates at home and on the road, their forum is confident, we need to put the Barnsley result and performance to bed and show our own credentials. The top 4 play each other which gives the chasing bunch a chance to cut the gap down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owl4ever1867 Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Not an easy game, Ipswich full of confidence at the moment. Course I want us to win but at the same time I'd take a point against a team who are top of the league. Heart says 2-1 win, head says 1-1 draw.

Reesh Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Is it just me or like what was used as reasoning for Kay, Swan and Layne do we never seem to beat Ipswich. Granted we won last time out but they seem to have got results up here a fair few times since our fall from the top table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrolMong Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Tomorrow is the marker. Not only do they press very high, but they dominate games, they average 70% possession this season. So they win it back and they keep it. These are a very very good side. Team wise, Bannan, Windows, Byers and Smith have to play. Given the impact they had when they came on, FDB and Johnson need to play. My team tomorrow is… Stockdale Iorfa, Ihiekwe, McGuinness Palmer, Byers, Bannan, FDB, Johnson Windass, Smith If we take a bit of a beating. It won’t be pleasant for Moore post game.

mkowlthesexynewversion Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Agree with a lot of the views, an acid test of not only these players but Moore's tactical merit. Barnsley certainly showed a method of stopping us, but it was also a collective all round poor performance that enabled it as well. We generally performed better against the better sides last year, almost like the players were more up for it. Midfield is the key battleground, but Smith has to play for me just to give us that extra dynamic and option of bypassing it. Be a good game hopefully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
