Right here’s our participant scores and feedback from an excellent afternoon in Suffolk:
Dubravka (7) – Wasn’t examined an excessive amount of however what he needed to do he did properly. Noticeable how rather more assured he’s on the ball than Pope. Provides an additional dimension when taking part in out from the again.
Livramento (7.5) – Provides nice help down the correct and has nice dribbling means. Doesn’t do something flashy however does his job completely.
Schar (8) – Pretty lengthy cross to launch Murphy for the opening purpose. Was untroubled all through as Ipswich missed the specter of Delap up entrance.
Burn (7.5) – Was caught out on one event however usually recovered properly and threw his physique in entrance of the ball. Super knee slide celebration went to waste as he had a purpose dominated out! Rock stable.
Corridor (8) – Can see the enhancements as every recreation goes by. Defensively he’s entering into all the correct positions and is all the time a risk in assault. Cross for Bruno was a spotlight, as was his important clearing header within the first half.
Guimaraes (9) – In all probability his greatest recreation of the season. Ran the present and is flourishing in that No.8 function. His reference to Tonali is bettering with every recreation and so they’re no longer occupying the identical areas. Pressed properly for the third purpose and unfortunate to hit the submit with a second half header.
Tonali (8.5) – So composed on the ball and skim the hazard so properly to consistently reduce out harmful breaks from Ipswich. One other masterclass from the Italian as he dictated the sport from the bottom of the midfield. Slick on the ball, all the time performs it ahead shortly and was excellent defensively earlier than we ran riot. Undroppable.
Willock (6.5) – Couple of sloppy giveaways and an enormous probability fired over summed up his efficiency, the place he lacked that sharpness on a day others have been bang at it. By no means appeared to get going and nonetheless seems to be a way wanting his greatest. Presumably took a knock within the second half when he missed that golden alternative.
Murphy (9) – Arguably his greatest efficiency for the membership. Super cross for the primary purpose and the again heel flick for Isak’s third exhibits the boldness he’s taking part in with. Thrashed one in off the underside of the bar to cap off an incredible days work, however may’ve had a couple of extra assists the place his nice work wasn’t adopted with the end. That’s now six purpose involvements in his final three league video games!
Gordon (8) – Grabbed an help for Murphy after reducing inside properly and had three alternatives to get himself on the scoresheet. Labored his socks off and induced the defence nightmares.
Isak (10*) – A person in kind wh. First hat trick for the membership and he’s brimming with confidence. Might’ve had a hatful on one other day. His motion off the ball is a selected spotlight that may go unnoticed.
Subs:
Trippier (7) – Got here on when the sport was nearly as good as over. Loads of touches and getting minutes into the legs forward of the Christmas interval.
Barnes (6.5) – Ought to’ve scored late on when performed by means of by Gordon however unselfishly tried to chop it again. Skied a volley from a nook too.
Longstaff (7) – Performed some pretty passes and linked the play properly. Has misplaced his place within the beginning eleven however nonetheless has a vital function to play.
Almiron (6.5) – Curious determination to carry him on over Osula however he did what Miggy does. Countless operating with none finish product.
Miley (NR) – Seemed stylish when he got here on. Nice to get some minutes underneath his belt and bodily seems to be much more mature.
