Comment | Ipswich Town 5-0 Sheffield United - Match Report
at 07:07:33
It’s always a great feeling when walking out of PR after a win, and this was a much needed one.
Very pleased for the team and McKenna, the international break for once giving us a breathing space to get the team together.
I’m so surprised to see Sheffield Utd where they are, what a mistake they have made booting Wilder out, again. Their supporters deserve better and they stood and cheered their team to the end, always a long way home after a defeat especially if you’ve had 5 put past you.
I for one was unsure about Philogene when we bought him and thought Villa had put one over us on the transfer and with the injury last season it didn’t help him. McKenna now working his magic, a great debut for Furlong he looks a solid player with some skillfull touches and the young lad Egeli did well, he needs to smile a bit more especially on a night like this, not sure how good his English is and maybe that’s why he looks apprehensive in his body language. He certainly needs time to settle in after that huge fee for such a young talent from a team I’ve never heard of, and let’s give McAteer and Akpom time to bed in.
Well done lads a great job on the pitch tonight.
One happy blue. |

Comment | Ogbene: Nine Months Out Injured Was Life-Changing
at 06:21:31
Personally I was very very happy to see us sign this guy and felt for him when he got that injury. He’s an exciting player to watch and I’m bitterly disappointed the club have let him go on loan, but I understand it’s best for him to rediscover his match fitness as we are probably over staffed in his position and he needs game time.
I hope the loan goes well for him, is it a step for him to move on I don’t know? I hope not as I think he has a lot to offer us still. Hopefully we have a clause to bring him back in January like Chaplin if he’s needed.

It’s great to see Jens back, I don’t think we’ve had the strongest of midfields for some time despite the two promotions and that’s my take on it and with losing Morsy and Luongo who both competed well at this level I was worried that we’d left it late getting in replacements.
I really hope that Nunez lives up to all the hype he has been given. I’d have liked to have seen Jack Taylor push on a bit stronger by now. |

With all the big money signings coming in how is that going to affect the youngsters in our Academy getting game time, and if we are buying because the quality of our youngsters isn’t there then what is the point of having an Academy. |

Best wishes for your future Luke, Coventry have got a bargain and hope it works out for you.
You need to be playing week in week out at your age. Honestly never thought there was much difference between any of our other centre backs and yourself.
Good luck Woolfy. |

I wish you well Ali and push on with your career, I think you came here to early and too much was expected too quickly of you, in my view you needed another season in the championship before stepping up to the Premiership and it’s set you back. Good luck. |

Comment | Chaplin Set For Pompey Return
at 16:58:45
Was talking to my son in law before the Southampton game saying that I thought perhaps this would be Conor’s last season with us. I think his confidence has been shattered by our season in the premiership and after his injury.
Disappointing to see him go as he has contributed much to our success but with the players we’ve brought in they are going to be our future.
It will be interesting to see if McKenna departs from our present style of play as I feel we’ve been sussed out somewhat by the opposition.
We were out muscled last season and our build up play this season is still far to slow and predictable.
Let’s hope the international break gives McKenna time to get them use to each other and form those vital partnerships. |

Comment | Town to Sign Norwich Midfielder Nunez
at 08:32:58
Well I’ve been wanting us to sign a creative midfielder for several seasons and never for one moment thought he’d be a budgie.
Welcome Marcelino.
I had a real chuckle to myself when I read he was injured seems it’s a must reason for us to buy a player these days.
How does that work with passing a medical before signing?
I’m not being negative but what does this say about our scouting system.
I’m so desperate for a win against them I just hope their replacement signing has trouble adapting to the championship. |

I’ve looked and read a lot of the Leicester fans reaction to the move and most are fairly unhappy at losing Kasey, yes I think we have paid top money for him perhaps too much, I just hope that the consultancy firm who were instrumental in bringing Muric here weren’t involve and he has been brought here purely on his footballing talent and not statistics playing too big a part. |

Comment | Butcher: I'd Have Made Omari Train on His Own

He’s tasted the highest possible success with England U21’s, mixing with the cream of young talent this country can provide and you can’t ignore the possibility that those around him have had a go asking what his England future going to be staying with a Championship side.
Undoubtedly a talent but didn’t set off any fireworks in the Premiership and doubt he’s worth the figure mentioned and I thought we paid too much for him but that’s the money orientated sport that football is today.
He’s treated the club badly and left a bitter taste, not a way to leave a club that gave you your big break in our eyes.
Honestly thought he never really a good fit with his teammates from some of his body language, that he always seemed to be a bit aloof in my view.
But I wish the lad success in his future.

Comment | Broadhead Travelling to Wrexham After Fee Agreed
at 12:06:26
Technically a brilliant Player just his fitness a concern and when fit the best passer of the ball at the club. Always been a favourite and sorry to see him go. Probably a good move for him with a fresh start and good business if all the add ons mature. Nice to actually see us sell a player for a profit not happened that often of late.
I’m sure he will get a great reception when he comes back, good luck Nathan. |

Hope this really works out, haven’t a clue how good he is but is he a 9 or a 10 and we are going along the well travelled route of bringing in players with an injury history so could be like for like with Broadhead moving on.
I still think we need a quality creative central midfielder and I was disappointed when the Hackney deal didn’t materialise, mind you if he played the other night he didn’t do much for Middlesbrough.
Interesting times but it’s looks as if we are in for a hard slog of a season.
I think it’s going to be a tough one against Southampton on Sunday.

Comment | McKenna: Hutchinson Didn't Feel That He Could Contribute Today
at 07:43:31
Poor little darling.
Okay I always thought that he’d use the club as a stepping stone but you’d think he would have the dignity to work for his wages.
Yes Szmodics did the same to Blackburn and I can’t honestly say I’ve been that impressed by him yet.
He had that injury which disrupted his season but I think a lot depends upon the playmaker in a team as to how other players perform and I don’t think we have one at this moment and he’s been missing the past couple of seasons.
We’ve bought proven goal scorers who suddenly don’t perform when they get here, what should that be telling those that search out the talent for this club. |

Comment | McKenna: I've Got One Or Two Roles in Mind For Akpom to Play More Often
at 07:25:21
A bit lost for words really, same old same old comes to mind when it comes to facing these little teams.
To quote an old has been “we had a strong team on paper unfortunately we played the game on grass”.
Two goalkeepers on the bench what was that all about apart from showing the world what a poor squad in depth we have. |
