Incredible tactical genius from McCarthy tonight in dropping Douglas (confirmed it was tactical in his R Suffolk post-game interview). We are truly blessed to live in the same era as such a sporting intellect.

I can't fathom where he gets his inspiration for such decisions. Perhaps its EVERY Ipswich supporter without exception. I sometimes think we'd do better e-selecting the team democratically. Gav, please can you add such functionality to this website?

I thought Chambers had a good game (for him) at full back - he even found tea mates with passes several times. I was disappointed with Webster's passing though - I hope he's not having that side of his game coached out of him!

Skuse protected the back 4 pretty well, but Bru and Bishop were anonymous first half, 2nd half Bishop got a bit more involved. Lawrence showed great skills several times, he didn't stay in the game for long periods, but had several quality moments.

I was most impressed with Best, his workrate, strength and close control was really an outlet to us, getting the ball into him we he was able to keep it untill the attacking midfielders caught up.

Good to get 3 points but Town were overrun at times and lucky to hold on to win. Thought Tom was great and better performance from Bru (esp his pass for first goal) and Chambo. Its worrying that MM only changes team for injuries and we saw how good midfield could play without Skuglas. Best certainly looks promising and had hard time with physical defenders.
