Sadly it won't matter if Ipswich continue to improve. We could do with Delap, Hutchinson ,Davis & Szmodics all having season ending injuries in the next fortnight.

Agreed.

I expect Ipswich to finish above us right now. They've got an inferior squad but look far more competitive.
 
Ipswich have what we need, and it ain't the players. They have spirit and fight, they're an impressive unit even if not talented.

I'd say we're down. We're looking better under RvN but others are looking better.
 
They're also had the consistency of the same manager for ~3yrs now getting the team to play a certain way and signing players to fit that style.

We're on about our 4th manager in that same time and have chopped and changed with playing styles and players.

If any of the other promoted teams lost their manager and best player when they went up, we'd be writing them off straight away.

Lots of players potentially on the up in their careers too, and potentially worth more than they pay.

We've got bang average players at their peak with no sell on value.

They really do remind me of us in the great escape year and I wouldn't be too surprised if they replicate it.

We're on our 5th manager in less than two years.
