At last a win Let's hope they are like buses and another one comes along on Saturday
We are now seeing some quality performances all over the pitch but still with a few adjustments needed
The work rate of Stewart combined with his goals shows why we bought him With Arma it could well be worth 40 goals for the season
Defensively there is still a sign that they lack experience but by Christmas that should be gone
We now have one more point than we had after 8 games 2 years ago If we end the season with one more point than 2 years ago it could well be an auto spot |

We were definitely the better team today and other than that age old problem of not putting chances away looked much nearer to the team we want to be
Every player was worth his place and he should persevere with tha starting eleven
Ross Stewart put himself about and looked just about drained when he came off but has earned another start
Of the subs Robinson looked lively and should be the natural replacement/sub for Fellows
Fellows however should be one of the first names on the team sheet
Special note to the referee:- Players other than goalkeepers are NOT allowed to control the ball with any part of their hand or arm We had a clear penalty shout in the second half and a good half a shout in the first half |

This game will give Will a selection headache for sure I'm hoping it spells the end of Stevens as a first choice player All 3 of last nights centre backs are better than him
Jelert looks a better bet than Mads and if fit Jander should start alongside Charles Unfortunately Flynn still wants to play the short pass game
How do you choose between Scienza,Azaz or Robinson All 3 deserve to start
The major disappointment was D Downes He doesn't look remotely likely to become a 10 goal a season player
Tell McCarthy just to put the ball into Row R. Other than that gaff I thought he ha a reasonable game
At least we saw signes that we have a team and hopefully we will soon start winningk |

Not impressed by any Saints player As individuals and collectively the barely reached average We allowed them to control the m/f in the first half and it was just as well they are no better than us at creating chances
We were better in the second half but still short of creativity Even if we had Mo Salah we would still need a player capable of finding that killer pass
A lot for the coaches to sort out for sure None of the newbies impressed and they need to know the best 11 very quickly |

All 3 centre backs need to up their concentrati
on level Everone of them had lapses that presented Ipswich with a scoring opportunity It's was lucky for us they couldn't take them
Quarshie is not accustomed to the pace,THB missed pre season and is not yet fully match fit and Capt. Jack is what he is
Fraser at W/b did a reasonable job and the cross for JR'S goal was spot on If you watch the highlights look at the clever placing of the pass from Fernandez to Fraser
Before we can got to a back 4 we need one or two good quick wingers and another creative m/f player
Ipswich,like us,are a team in transition.So overall happy with a draw |

It was a bit more of a struggle than it should have been.We missed a couple of early chances and allowed them to gain a bit of confidence The half time talk must have woken them up because for 15/20 minutes after we dominated the game but failed to convert good chances
Of the 4 players who can play as a No 9 none appear to be firing on all cylinders yet but is that because of the service. Having failed, on Saurday,to convert the chance that captain Jack eventually put in DD again couldn't unravel his feet to score from 2 yards.
But it's a win and we are in the hat for round 2 Reading at home please |

3 points to start a very important season.That is the only thing that really matters
In the main everyone did their job and apart from the pen and header that went over they didn't pose much of a threat
One of the big fellas should play up the middle and AA wide right eg Jay Ross AA and the bench could have more than adequate replacements for all 3
Good to see we have a 100 minutes plus team How many did we concede late last year?

We have been subjected to worse this season for sure They should shut of the stadium clock because when they see half or full time approaching they relax and lose concentration
Good to see Robinson and Sanda get game time Both are impressive and will provide useful options in the championship Sanda maybe a future captain in the making
Keep Ross fit and give him a full pre season him and AA could easily get 40 plus goals between them
We know some good players will leave but hopefully a lot of our not so good or frustrating players will also go
Let WS bring in some of his own and next year MUST be better |

At times we tried to keep possession by playing our pretty boy football again.With no effective striker on the pitch it was always going to be a tough ask.
Just one more PL game and then perhaps I will start enjoying my football again
Whoever gets the job has a lot of repair work to do.
Ferndez MotM again. He has the ability needed to play in a top 6 side Rambo hasn't so to be first choice he will probably have to go to a newly promoted side,and risk another relegation,or settle for the likes of Wolves or WHU |

Arguably the best game of the season.If only we could have defended like that against lesser teams than City when we were in the lead
We have got the monkey off our backs so the last 2 games provide an ideal opportunity to play a couple of youngsters eg Dom Ballard
Nothing ventured nothing gained |

Rusk has at least got them playing with a bit of passion.
Unfortunately the substitutions let us down again.Stewart was occupieing their attention but Archer couldn't replicate it For the last half hour they were allowed to push forward at will Replacing Fernandez also gave them control of the m/f
I want to see the replays but I thought RS should have had a pen the first time he broke through and the second time his shirt was being pulled yet the wonderful VAR never even looked at it
Overall a betterexperience for fans but we still need that point

Team was reasonably set up and competed well for the first 70 mins After the first goal we went into freefall yet again Whoever comes in has got to get them over a massive mental attitude problem
When Dibling was fouled the ref waved play on thinking there was an advantage I'd like him to explain how you can have a clear advantage 10 yards inside your own half with 4/5 opposition players within 10 yards of you. Theat error just compounded the inconsistent decisions which looked an awful lot like a Villa bias
Good to see Stewart and Robinson get game time Unfortunately we had no one capable of feeding the ball through to him so we couldn't |

For once I can claim that we were the better team
Downes,Onuachu,Kamaldeen and Manning all had their best game of this season and it was good to see
I would rather have played ABK than Stevens but other than that he selected the starting11 well Stevens did make a couple of last ditch tackles,which is the one thing he is good at,but he was at least 50% at fault with their goal THB messed up his clearance but when the cross came in JS was a yard behind his man and gave him a free header
Overall we were the better team and I came away gutted that we hadn't won |

The starting 11 was much what I expected and apart from Gronbaek for Sugawara is what I would have chosen Why play a FB as a m/f when you have a natural m/field player on the bench
When they scored where were our centre backs?Were we zonal marking or man to man marking?
And up to the we had dominated the half
To see Frnandez subbed off at half time for tall Paul was unbelievable. But he beat that when he brought on Archer At that stage we had a back 4,2 holding players,two wide players and 2 centre forwards Not an attacking m/f player in sight Just when you thought it couldn't get worse and we were chasing a draw he brings on Jack Stevens Why?
Crowd unrest a nd a chant of you don't know what you're doing should be enough to convince our director of foot ball that Juric should go NOW9 |

We had scousers booing their team at half time
So Russell Martin you saw yesterday what a small adjustment to your possession game could have achieved |
