I believe Chambers responded in an intelligent and measured response and am thankful he is our club captain.
His comment on the fact that every individual responds differently and they are not necessarily going to speak out in front of people is completely correct. Everyone is different.
Must be extremely difficult for him to create cohesion in the dressing room with so many new faces in such a short space of time I for one is grateful the role Chambers plays in our club.

I thought it made him look rather uncomfortable. Which is not really fair on a bloke who is trying to provide leadership within a much-changed squad while having to adjust his own game to an unfamiliar system. He's forced to tread a fine line between the questions he's being asked and the manager he has to work with. |  |

I thought he looked angry which is no bad thing to be honest and fair play the club media man for asking it shows Chambers passion for the club.
He answered the questions thoughtfully and honestly, he didn’t dodge the questions, add to this interview his comments regarding lack of investment in the club last season he obviously cares about our club and wants to succeed at Ipswich. | | | |

Same as you he looked very twitchy and not his usual self during the interview. |  | | |

I don't think there was anything much wrong with what Chambers said, nor do I think he lacks passion for the team.
I just thought the line of questioning put him on the spot, he was forced to choose between confirming the impression there's something wrong with the squad (e.g. players not putting in the effort) or going against the manager by suggesting he was wrong in having a go at the team. He threaded that very fine line ok, but it was clearly not comfortable. And it did nothing to smooth the perceived situation.
It also looked like he hadn't been given a chance to compose his answer beforehand (i.e. by knowing the question was coming). Which is fine for investigative journalism, but you'd expect the in-house media to provide a more benign environment. | |

Maybe Hurst sent the questions to the media department for Chambers to answer then as a test.
I get the impression the players left over from the previous regime probably are thinking blimey we are one of only a few left and feel under threat. | | | |

The spark has gone out of him. I would think it is very hard to deal with the loss of an experienced manager to be replaced by a rottweiler type with no proven skills who shouts a lot.
I would imagine he is praying for MM to get another club so he can follow him.
There is nothing left that is recognisable as an Ipswich team sadly just a mish-mash of Div 1 players and a manger out of his depth. |  | | |

'No proven skills'. Hmm, let's look at Hurst's record of success at every club he's managed ... | |

Hurst's been excellent so far - but untested at this level so it is a gamble.
Hopefully one that works :) | | | |

But he can't be depicted as some utter rookie who's been parachuted straight into a Championship job. Which is a lot of the language being used about both Hurst and the players he's hired, as if they have no history or experience behind them, like the divisions below ours don't exist. | |

Ignoring the first two sentences, isn't the reason McCarthy left because enough of the fanbase were sick and tried of what was 'recognisible as an Ipswich team'? [Post edited 17 Aug 2018 18:16]

I agree, we should be hoofing our way to 14th with a minimum of ten 0-0 draws. That's the Ipswich way |  |

Hurst win ratio is 49.9 which is higher than either than Bobby Robson over his career. |  |

But what Brian Klug did at the end of last season, both on and off the pitch, shows perhaps this much change was not needed. | |

Chambers probably sees him around the club 2-3 times a week. The two of them probably are very familiar. | | | |

Klug said he had no interest in the job, I suspect he would hve been a strong candidate otherwise.
I wonder if some people would have been happier if Lampard had come here with his wealth of managerial experience?
We're three games in with someone considered to be one of the brightest young managers in the football league, I think we need to wait and see for a few games at least. |  |

Impressive numbers but as always a flawed comparison given that,apart from a short spell with Fulham in the Second Division, Bobby managed exclusively in the top leagues with every club he managed. Had he managed to squeeze in 5 years covering the third tier through to the Northern Premier League (as a son of the North East, he could have worked wonders at Spennymoor United), I think those numbers would be closer. |  | | |

You're right, I just don't think he needed to change so much so soon
I know Klug didn't want the job, but he showed what could be done with micks players, but a different voice and style of play. | |
