Ipswich 0-4 Newcastle - the fans' verdict

We asked for your thoughts after Saturday's Premier League game between Ipswich Town and Newcastle United.

Here are some of your comments:

Ipswich fans

Peter: Men against boys. It was Premier League vs Championship. They bullied us, snapped at our heels all day and shrugged us off the ball with ease. They won every second ball, if not the first. I only remember one shot on target and that was half way through the second half. We seriously lack pace at the back, as they just continually put the ball over the top. This performance was bad, but we still believe.

James: When will Kieran McKenna realise that Muric is not Premier League standard? He looks a mistake waiting to happen and he doesn't seem to be able to play out from the back, which is a style McKenna seemingly wants to persist with.

Mel: We do not have the squad to keep playing out from the back - starting with Muric! How many goals have we given away this season? This game showed just how vulnerable we are, particularly against a side like Newcastle. I still think we should recall Christian Walton who, in my view, is a far better goalkeeper than Muric.

Jasmine: We really need more depth all over the pitch, but up front especially. Al-Hamadi is a League One player at best and we struggle when Delap is unavailable.

Newcastle fans

Mark: It finally seem to be clicking both in midfield and on the flanks. Murphy always seems to have a purple patch in him - and long may this one last! Tonali and Bruno look excellent in midfield. We are suddenly five points off the top four with two huge games next! Best of luck for the rest of the season, Ipswich - hope you stay up!

Barry: Very impressive, with the midfield linking well. Isak took his chances but the others could have been more clinical. The rain and a slippery surface helped neither team.

Neil: The perfect start. We pressed well and did not let Ipswich settle. A confident display, comfortable win and clean sheet.

Andrew: Absolutely delighted with performance. For me, Murphy was outstanding, along with Isak and Gordon. I'm looking forward to the Aston Villa and Manchester United games, with confidence that we can end the year with another two wins.
