Same, unfortunately I think they're just too shit. All that time they wasted with that bell end Martin has scuttled any chance they had of survival.

I see the new bloke doesn't have them arsing about at the back anymore. Their goal keeper takes proper goal kicks which is good to see.

It's a shame that the promoted teams aren't in the same class as the Rovers, Fulham, Bolton triumvirate of 2001.

If they were "heavyweights" Everton, Man U, and Spurs really would be looking over their shoulders.

I saw bits of their games this week and all three of them look terrible. Man U were dogged against Arsenal but if not for a lucky bounce that led to the first goal they may have lost to rock bottom Southampton. Everton can't score, and Spurs look knackered.

FM OGs know you only ever sign a player up to age 32 maximum, then sell the year before contract expiry.

I thought Ipswich were starting to get going, but it was a really poor result for them against Brighton. 

United will steer clear of trouble purely through having quality players like Amad to step up, but they're a long, long way off getting close to the top four any time soon. Top half might be beyond them at this point.

Spuds 2-0 down at Everton.

Wonder how much more Postecoglu can survive?

3-0 down now 💀.

[simongarnerisgod]

everton scoring 3 goals is rare,3 goal in one half is barely believable😆

[Norbert Rassragr]

The fake big club Spurs are looking horrendous. 

[K-Hod]

I’m actually sat here open mouthed at how poor Spurs are.

Nearly 30 minutes of the second half gone, 3 down still and no shots this second half.

They really are shambolic.

just look at the number of players who would be starting for them. 

Romero, Vicario, Van de Ven, Udogie, Bentancur, Werner, Johnson, Solanke, Bissouma. 

Most of them would be regular starting players for them

[DeeCee]

3-2

[roversfan99]

They have players out, but he continues to play in the same naive and irresponsible way regardless.

So he should change his tactics to suit the players he has available

He changed to back 3 today with Gray, Davis and Dragusan and they were awful defensively.

When you have 7 starting players out of your starting lineup, results we be affected.

Think about how much Ipswich have spent this season on new players. Next season, they will be promotion favourite
