And some very pertinent points on Johansen, who has somewhat gone under the radar during this clusterf.... Not sure "happy" is the term, but I am glad that there is an F in the armoury. Kind of sad there is only the one on attack left to come. | | | |

It is genuinely heartbreaking to watch any of that match, but the goals in particular. We look amazing. | |

I'm fairly resigned to the fact that next season will be a horrific struggle. I thlought the same last summer based on the second half of the season, but Beale made me briefly believe. This year, there's no such hope. Could be a Gerry Francis 'Wardley' season where we battle it out and somehow come 12th based on some once-in-a-career seasons for a couple of players, but suspect we'll be fighting relegation, in a fairly ugly way, all season long. | |

Absolutely. But imagine how much worse it might have been if not for Field. His contribution was huge. I never really knew what to make of Iroegbunam but you get the feeling he might be a top player in years to come. | |

The sad thing is, I think there is a decent player in Dozzell somewhere. I was sure when he was signed he was billed as the long term replacement for Johansen. A ball playing, creative cog, the rest of the midfield would work around. A player like that just disappears once the midfield is overrun, which was constantly over the past 18 months. Probably a player that looks great in a winning team. | | | |

It's interesting to see what Ipswich supporters thought of him before we signed him. Pretty underwhelmed although the odd one thought he'd look good at a higher level - even Premier League! Clearly still living off his pedigree as the son of a footballer who played for England youth teams as he was developing. Apart from the pass at Cardiff, he has contributed next to nothing. Reminds me of someone running a three-legged race as he stands so close to the centre back playing his three-yard passes back and forth. Midfield is our biggest (of several) problems. You don't win many matches with him or Johansen on his mobility scooter as your midfield generals. | | | |

One caveat though for Roberts, and it's a small one, but those 2 goals against reading ended up being quite big for us, that 2 point swing towards Reading would have made the last day a bit scary. he was crap though. | | | |

You could point to lots of things over 46 games that saved us. Yes thank you Tyler for scoring two goals in that game but that was about all he contributed. You're not going to get far on this forum if you tell other posters to shut up, just because you disagree with them. | |

Two goals against Reading weighted against wage, loan fee, loan spot committed to a player who was never available, didn't want to be here, walked around with a face like a slapped arse, and was total fcking crap in all but three of the games he played for us. | | | |

You can debate without telling people to shut up. Roberts arguably one of our worst value loans ever. We need to be a lot smarter with any loans next season, and ideally have fewer of them. | |
