 | News Comment | Ipswich Town 1-2 Southampton - Match Report at 18:10:30
Having enjoyed the stratospheric highs of the last 2 seasons the sporting cycle has the team now enduring some extreme testing lows. The ownership and management have tried to do the right thing at every stage with an extraordinary amount of cash and energy invested but it has taken far longer to get a consistent return than expected. Delap and O’Shea have been the only real success stories but that is not to say the young talent can’t thrive from now until May. I would like to see a more settled side but this low could be a true turning point with more than enough points left to fight for. |

KM has not only created an exciting team of footballers open to bundles of improvement but also developed very well-spoken, thoughtful individuals. Very rarely do we as fans have to stomach the usual banal football platitudes from this group and there is some genuine interesting insight. I would happily stand and argue that McKenna is the best in the business. |

I don’t really watch much of the other teams but Villa were an excellent side, technically outstanding and Onana in the middle of the park was one of the best players I have seen at PR for a long time. And Ipswich matched them, including physically - O’Shea has a shiner for the ages. This is a team still some way off it’s peak but bravo to KM and all involved for keeping the points tally ticking over thus far. |

This is where KM will earn his salary. He has had the best part of 2 years with tremendous success and has coached a team to the top flight with just a few tweaks of personnel here and there. He now has to develop the ability to mould a winning outfit with a much more valuable squad. I am confident he will do that too but the odd early glitch has to be expected. Disappointing to go out but we aren’t much of a cup team anyway and I liked what I saw from Johnson, Townsend, Phillips, Cajuste and particularly Jack Clarke. The trick now is to not get too far off the pace as Ipswich develop as a unit. |

Excellent business all summer and some real depth to the squad now. It may a take a bit of time to get all the pieces in place but I am very optimistic this team will be a great success in the top flight. |

Some nice close control just watching the little video above. Plenty for KM to develop. Potentially another exciting recruit. |

Greaves was outstanding and Delap’s marauding up front hugely promising. Excellent effort all round on a day when it was easy to get a bit too revved up and plenty to look forward to as the players develop. Shrewd from KM as well to get Taylor, AAH and Sam on the field for a run out. Walton hasn’t missed a beat either judged on that. |

It is an interesting one. KM and MA must see something and can coax him out of the doldrums. His fitness will be put to the test under the rigorous Ipswich regime - he has the potential to be a big contributor from the autumn onwards if recapturing something like his Leeds form. if nothing else, I do like the continuing aggressive policy in the transfer market to try and add to the current squad. |

Nice to see an overall picture of a plan B from those in charge. JP doesn’t work out in timely fashion so it is on to the next potential acquisition. Well done ITFC. |

Don’t blame him weighing up the options as a promising young player taking his next step - just like KM did in the spring. I still think he will pick Ipswich and they get this Greaves mush too FWIW. |

Another high-character signing and speaks with great intelligence. Ideal type of player to be adding to the mix. |
