| Attempt at being balanced/ apology thread 17:23 - Feb 1 with 738 views | BouncebackIpswich |
Gonna start of by saying that my language towards Muric was totally out of order and born of extreme exasperation. And yes I'm a Leicester fan so my opinion is less valid than most on here but ultimately my heart is with Town over City these days and has been for a good few seasons hence why I post on here. But I do apologise for being out of order.
I would like to point out that today, ITFC played the best we've seen in my opinion, as a dominant attacking performance since probably Leicester at home. I've certainly not seen that level of attacking intent, and incisive passing for a good few months from Town. Enciso seemed to make a world of difference, he plays really effectively as a false 9 and gives Delap a license to pick up different positions and be dangerous, he also bring the likes of Hutchinson and Broadly into the game, no coincidence we looked far more dangerous and created more chances than we have done for ages. In fact it was like watching last season's Town again
BUT we lost due to having a completely incompetent keeper between the sticks. Say what you want but Muric isn't the difference between 1 point and 3, he is the difference between zero and 3. As has been said in another threads put Ramsdsle on goal and we win that by a 2 goal cushion at least. Town are odds on to go down and I'm afraid to say that signing Muric will be by far and away the biggest contributing factor to that. He's been a complete disaster and I do believe, will go down on Town history as one of the worst signings in the history of the club.
To end on a positive though, I will say that Town look much better equipped GK aside to be competitive in games until the end of the season so despite the sickening result today it is not done, however I really think that Kieran has to drop Muric now because playing him is like starting 2-0 down every game.

It's not just Muric but what's going on in front of him. You can almost see a goal coming when we start fannying around in midfield and up front Enciso, Delap and Hutch all had the ball in the box at different times with a lay-off option and none took it. Enciso is greedy, Delap is being flogged to death and Hutch keeps running into blind alleys. We missed Burns' overlaps as well. |  | | |

I don’t doubt Muric is a liability. But our other big problem is we have one of the best strikers in the country and we can’t play in a manner to enable him to score more goals. |  | | |

Why is it that if your striker misses a chance it's met with a groan or two but if your keeper lets one in it's a major disaster and he needs to be sacked/pilloried/sent back where he came from? Both instances cost a goal. Writing as a former member of the National Union of Goalkeepers. | | | |
