MILLWALL 3-4 IPSWICH -THINGS WE LEARNED

WHAT  did we learn from Millwall's 4-3 defeat to Ipswich at The Den last night?
 
Millwall lost for the second time this season after a crazy game against Ipswich Town here are some things we learnt from the game. 

1. Archer Needs to be dropped

Millwall have conceded six goals this season and Archer could well have saved 4 of them. In the game at the weekend against Bolton in real time the free-kick looked unstoppable but on further looking he could well have saved it. Last Night the first goal is an awful one to concede it is straight at him and for some reason he is diving when he could easily catch it! Very frustrating for us as fans to see that! 

Harris did not spare him in the press conference either saying that 'it was a horrendous effort by the goalkeeper, of course he shows save it, that's what he's in the goal for!' That for me shows that there is a possibility that he may not be between the sticks come Saturday.

2. When it clicks it will work well

We play some great football I was at the game Saturday and we played some really good stuff and I watched the game last night and some of our play was so good. We need to be more clinical but when you score three goals at home you do expect to win. I was not very happy with some of the defending, that has let us down! We must sort out all of the defensive problems soon because otherwise we will be sick down the bottom and this will turn into a season battle.

3. Morison and Gregory is not working

It has been a partnership that has worked so well over the last two years and so far the teams we have played other than Forest have contained them very well. Greg's looked a bit short on confidence goalscoring wise but when he gets that first goal I think he will get going and then the partnership will hopefully start working again.

4. Elliot deserves a chance

Tom Elliot has done well whenever he has come on and in his only start he scored a brace so I think he deserves a start at the weekend. Against a Bristol City side who will struggle with our physical side I think so hopefully he will get a chance as I think he has earned that opportunity.

Everton finished the season in 8th position in the Premier League table with 49 points, 12 fewer than they achieved last season. Allardyce met with the club's majority shareholder Farhead Moshiri this morning (Wednesday) where he was told that his services were no longer required. This is believed to be have been a decision that come from an Everton board meeting on Tuesday afternoon.

Sacking Chris Hughton - Is it the right decision?

Another season has come to an end. This is the period where you will see managers come and go and players come in and depart clubs. The 2018/19 has now come to and end and Brighton finished in 17th place. I believe that if you had offered that to them most Brighton fans would have accepted a third successive season of Premier League football. Add onto that, The Seagulls also made the semi-finals of the FA Cup. Chris Hughton has paid the price for Brighton's poor form in 2019. This decision however, seems extremely harsh. Here is his overall record in charge of the club. Games: 215 Wins: 88 Draws: 57 Defeats: 70 That works out to a win percentage of around 40% that is not bad for a team that's budget is pennies compared to some in the Premier League. Brighton staying in the top flight is an achievement in its self and something that should not be looked over.  Hughton took over at Brighton back in 2014 when the club was struggling at the bottom of t...

Barclays Premier League Preview: Southampton v Everton

Ronald Koeman will return to the dugout this weekend after missing last week's match at Newcastle after having ankle surgery.  He will be hoping that his Saints side can cut out the errors as they welcome Everton to St Mary's this weekend. Southampton needed a Shane Long header 11 minutes from time to rescue a point against Steve McClaren's men at St James' Park last Sunday and the Southampton boss saw plenty of areas for Improvement. 'I wasn't impressed because I was not happy about the first half. Already in the Vitesse match we had too many mistakes the same in the first half at Newcastle." "All the dangers of Newcastle came from faults. The second half the reaction of the players and the physical state in the last 15 minutes was very good because we had the best chances to win the game" "Starting the season with a draw away against Newcastle isn't a bad result bur normally, if we play our level we win the game. " Sou...
