Getting Luton vibes from Ipswich. They huff and puff but they’ll go straight back down.

Ipswich ran out of steam
It had to be Tuanzebe of all people that was playing Salah onside
Ipswich kinda crumbling now. Could get ugly.
Number 11 for Ipswich looks like he's coping with playing with a spherical ball for the first time in his life. He's been used to cubes up until now.
The amount of Liverpool fans that underestimate an ageing Salah is baffling. Still a world class player.
Ipswich looks like this season’s Burnley tbh.
Very little quality, they will struggle to score goals.

Salah's decline taking longer than we'd hoped, still a really good player unfortunately.
Ref playing defense for Liverpool
I don't think they'll even put up as much of a fight as Luton did.
Their squad is nowhere near Premier League level, and most of their signings haven't changed that.
Liverpool taking the piss now
I've said this so many times. The man keeps himself in top shape and will play at the top for another 3-4 seasons yet
He's just an assister now. Going down the Sanchez route.
Sure, I get that, I just thought they were playing good, fast, incisive football. Ipswich are making it easy to play through them right now though, yes.
I was hoping Ipswich might catch Liverpool cold today.
Delap is absolutely woeful
Looks as good of a striker as his dad was.
Strange signing, wasn't even that good in the championship. McT is ten times the player for the same price, or even a season loan.
I seen yesterday none of the last 5 Liverpools managers won their debut league game. That's when I knew today's script.
Agreed, his first touch and final ball have always been good (when he finally releases it), I think Slot will lean on him more to bring others into play.
Is he as good at throw-ins as his dad though?
It's early days but Liverpool look excellent, albeit not quite as shot happy as they were under Klopp. Slot could end up being a good appointment.
Where did you see this?
Aldi Robben!
Let’s not get carried away. There only playing a newly promoted team and the favourites to get relegated. Plus they’ve signed nobody. They won’t keep it up all season.
I'm not sure if it was here, BBC, maybe Facebook.
They’re playing comfortably the worst team in the league and didn’t create a chance till the 60th minute, some of you closet Liverpool fans need to hide it better
No he’s not
Excellent?
The ones praising Liverpool are the same who have such a downer on everything to do with the club they claim to support. Funny that.
Hope McKenna doesn't get judged as a Premier league manager on his season as a Premier league manager.
They were outplayed by Ipswich in the first half
They are Judases.
It's one Facebook, X etc, starts with "no Liverpool manager this century", if you search those words you should find it. Not saying it's 100% true.
They were pretty unconvincing in the first half, to put it mildly. "Look excellent" is far from the truth IMO.
Jury still out on Pool. They're doing well after Ipswich tired a bit but things looked pretty sketchy in the first.
They have great attacking quality so that'll probably keep things going. Salah looks really sharp, Jota is class and the rest like Nunez, Diaz, Gakpo are good options.
If they fall apart it's because of the midfield. Initially Trent seemed kinda confused by his role. Was playing within himself a bit. Bradley is a much natural fit for that role.

Ok. But now I have more faith on your research.
The TAA to Madrid links make sense for everyone (except Liverpool obviously)
Can see Ipswich making progress in the Carabao, maybe 4th round. And possibly getting back to back wins in March. Also there's the Suffolk dividend, which usually kicks in about now.
