Ipswich self destructing. Og from a wayward Maguire shot quickly followed by a penalty.

Another shot deflected to the rat unmarked 6 yards out. Hope the fuckers are using all their luck up against a promoted team :lol:

How much have the rags spent just for their backline to still be Maguire, dalot, shaw 7 years later. Incredible stuff

And Carrick is going to get found out so bad this year now that they're playing more than one game every 10 days

Mbuemo hits the bar and ball bounces in because of the slope. Never seen a team have so much luck in 45 minutes of football.

More than happy for them to use up all their luck on a team that's going to be relegated. It'll also have them thinking that they're actually a good team, making it more likely for a good beating coming soon

The Arse will have had a nine day break between their first two games.

PL football is becoming ,all about refs.

It is going to take a massive effort to overcome these things this season.

Definitely handball but iirc VAR only looks at incidents inside the box. It was clear as day!!!

The problem is the third goal from penalty, Ipswich went into panic mode as they had only just gone 2 down, so the question is, had slab heads goal been disaalowed which it should, would the Ipswich player been rash in conceding the pen.

yeah that is bizarre, makes the atmosphere feel like a 2nd division italian team.

But arse look flat, boring and predictable. While they are the team to beat, I think this season is going to be a slog for them & their fans. Their form was pretty shit at the tail end of last season as well

The same ref as City had last week vs Bournemouth. Letting the Arse get away with pushing and shoving all over the place
