MK Dons vs Ipswich Town Preview and Matchday Thread

[ashfordblue]

The only way Knudsen's throws will do any damage to the oppositions defence, is if he takes them from as near to a corner flag position say 10 yards, so they cross the defence rather than at it, like taking a corner, as what I saw yesterday his throws were pretty inept, with the Dons defence easily knocking them out, I also wish we could just keep the ball down on the deck a bit more, like in the first half, and similar to the 12 minutes of pressure MKD forwards especially Reeves & Hall put us under, Reeves would be a very good purchase to have him up top with Murphy, shame Fraser didn't get 10 minutes would have liked to see how he is now, but poor old Didsy, comes on, only to get a breakaway run on their defence, and a 100 yard sprint he aint got in him, he will need a lot more playing time before we see the best of him, but we do have Fraser on the bench which is a plus, and we've got Bish and Bru to come in, looks very good to me, Bishop and Bru are better that Douglas, both like to keep it down and put passes through to split defences, so against Fulham Tuesday will be a test, would still like to see Parr in for Knudsen on Tuesday night, an experienced defender to hold the left back line, Knudsen is getting there, but some of his errors make you cringe at times, but as Mick says he's having to learn very quickly about the Championship game, would also like to see Fraser come on at one stage Tuesday, as I would Varney he's getting there fitness wise, will be interesting to see if the stubborn Mick will strengthen up in the January window, if he has any aspirations of promotion come May, then that is one area we really need to look at, everywhere else we are ok.
