DONE DEAL: Ipswich pull 11th hour transfer to sign another keeper before the deadline

On Saturday afternoon, Ipswich Town suffered a 2-1 home loss to bottom-place Southampton. Terry Hunt, a long-time Blues supporter, shares his opinions.

Against Southampton, every one of our darkest fears came true. We needed to win not just to get three crucial points but also to boost the players’ confidence, which must have been severely eroded.

We were competing against the whipping boys of the Premier League. A laughing stock that could become the poorest Premier League team ever in terms of statistics. But everything went terribly, terribly wrong.

Let’s address the important query. Are we doomed? With 14 games remaining and 42 points up for grabs, the answer is obviously no. However, the Southampton game was crucial for me, and things suddenly appear bleak.

A number of this season’s games were frustratingly repeated on Saturday. Without a doubt, we should have won.

The majority of the fans’ ire is directed at Aro Muric, who ought to have performed better for both

goals. I’ll be honest. This cannot be sugar-coated. Muric is the quintessential “dodgy keeper,” capable

of making incredible saves yet incredibly inconsistent. I’m afraid we’re done if he has to play the remainder of the season.
I believe we should use the last day of the transfer window to acquire an experienced custodian, as Christian Walton will be away for a few weeks. Expecting Cieran Slicker to enter is too much.
