I was talking to an Ipswich mate, and my general assessment of them is they’ve had an amazing season, but if they go up they’ll get battered every week - they simply won’t score enough goals against PL defences. His response was that if they didn’t go up, he was scared that they’d lose McKenna (presumably to West Han or Brighton, if vacancies arrive).
So what are we scared of, if we don’t go up? I think we see the breakup of this team, and that’s worries me. It’s not like Bielsa’s first season, where we kept the team we had. We WILL lose - have to lose, financially - players like Gnonto, Cree and Rutter. Maybe not Archie this year, but DF would be starting from scratch and you never really know how a player is going to bed in, and if that causes the same disruption in September that the comings and goings caused last September, we could find ourselves chasing the pack once again. I just hope that we’ve done some work on the outcasts - what happens to Harrison, Aaronson, Rasmus et al - if we are still an EFL team next year… Ed.
