Players remembered for just one moment
at 23:43 9 Aug 2024

I was thinking that if Jeremy Sarmiento doesn’t play for us again, despite a lot of good contributions for us across the season, whenever anyone mentions his name in the future, every Ipswich fan will just think of that goal against Southampton.

Which other players are remembered just for one moment? Richard Chaplow comes to mind with the goal against Watford in 2015.

I just woke up from a nightmare.
at 05:29 4 May 2024

Huddersfield went 3-0 up in the first half, Leif Davis pulled one back but it wasn’t enough and we lost 3-1. Leeds beat Southampton and I punched a hole in a cupboard and screamed, and then suddenly woke up. Thank goodness :)

Current favourite for player of the season
at 13:03 20 Feb 2024

It seems strange that, in our best season for 20 years, there is not an obvious favourite for the player of the season, but there are many great options. I guess that is just a Kieran McKenna team for you.

Who would you currently pick? Personally, I would be tempted by Nathan Broadhead although that may be a bit of recency bias. I think Massimo Luongo has been our most consistently brilliant performer. Last years clear top three, Morsy, Chaplin and Davis, are definitely in the conversation, as is Vaclav Hladky who has had a surprisingly extraordinary season. It is very hard to pick.

Will it be a hollow treble if Man City win all three this year?
at 17:43 3 Jun 2023

Man City look like they have a real chance to win the Treble this year, the Premier League, FA Cup and the Champions' League. But it has to be worth noting that Ipswich Town weren't part of two of those three competitions, and in the third Man City didn't have to play Ipswich. Surely it will be something of a hollow achievement because it clearly wouldn't have been the same story if Ipswich Town had been in the Premier League and the Champions' League this season, or if the teams had come up against each other in the FA Cup?

East Anglian Daily Times player ratings 2022/23
at 21:27 16 Jan 2023

This is the average rating given to each Ipswich player by EADT in every game of the season so far, the only exception being the 2-1 loss to Plymouth earlier in the season which I couldn't find an article for, so used the TWTD average instead, rounded to the nearest whole number. Here are the results, with the ranking emitted for those with fewer than five games played:

1. Cameron Humphreys 7.25 (16)
2. Sam Morsy 7.142857143 (28)
3. Cameron Burgess 7.117647059 (17)
4. Lee Evans 7 (23)
Zanda Siziba 7 2
Edwin Agbaje 7 1
5. Leif Davis 6.888888889 (27)
6. Sone Aluko 6.833333333 (12)
7. Luke Woolfenden 6.814814815 (27)
8. Conor Chaplin 6.8 (30)
9. Richard Keogh 6.8 (10)
10. George Edmundson 6.761904762 (21)
11. Christian Walton 6.703703704 (27)
12. Greg Leigh 6.7 (10)
13. Marcus Harness 6.62962963 (27)
14. Dominic Ball 6.625 (8)
15. Janoi Donacien 6.615384615 (26)
16. Kyle Edwards 6.571428571 (21)
17. Vaclav Hladky 6.571428571 (7)
18. Freddie Ladapo 6.533333333 (30)
Tawanda Chirewa 6.5 2
Albie Armin 6.5 2
19. Wes Burns 6.392857143 (28)
20. Kayden Jackson 6.37037037 (27)
21. Tyreece John-Jules 6.333333333 (21)
22. Kane Vincent-Young 6.235294118 (17)
Gassan Ahadme 6 (3)
George Hirst 6 (1)
Panutche Camara 5.666666667 (3)
Rekeem Harper 4 (1)


I think they do seem to have a bit of bias towards defenders for whatever reason, but even so having Cameron Burgess that high is surprising, and Wes Burns is very low but his contribution is perhaps a little overlooked in individual games because the opposition are so scared of him they tightly mark him and give more space for other players like Chaplin, perhaps. Janoi Donacien is also particularly low for a defender. Meanwhile Cameron Humphreys currently tops the pile for the second consecutive season (although last year it was with fewer than five games), but Sam Morsy is the highest ranked player without the boost given due to inexperience, which seems about right to me. I find it interesting to see how the players rank according to experts.

Who has been our player of the half-season?
at 17:19 26 Dec 2022

I would be tempted to go with Leif Davis, because his position was one of the weak spots of last season and he has come in and been exceptional all season. Sam Morsy also deserves a mention for consistently being outstanding, while Conor Chaplin would be number three for me as he had a bit of a quiet run in the middle of the half-season but was a goal-scoring machine at the start and end of it. Lee Evans was also excellent when he played but missed quite a few matches, as has Marcus Harness albeit to a lesser extent, while Luke Woolfenden and Cameron Burgess have been extremely solid at the back. Freddie Ladapo and Christian Walton have had a few poor games but have been excellent in general. Meanwhile, the two best players of last season, Wes Burns and Janoi Donacien, have been a little disappointing. Humphreys and Edwards weren't expected to play a lot but have had spells in the side where they made a real difference.
