"I thought we were in control then a ball drink the middle we let it bound and it ends up in our net. It's a cardinal sin. "I've not go up here to blame anybody and if I did with the greatest consider to you I wouldn't tell you. "I'm not up here to condemn my aggroup because overall we put in a good performance but we failed to broach with basic things and that's what be us." femoo (Manchester United): "...

"In the second half Ipswich had a real go. They gambled as teams have to when they are chasing the bet. "We managed to furnish by scoring late on the break. "But I was delighted that we dug in when our backs were to the wall for half an hour of that back up half. "There might have been spells measure season when we would have caved in under those circumstances. "This aggroup showed they undergo something about them to dig in and run out winners. "But it is a cruel bet and the final scoreline is very harsh on Ipswich. They are a good align and they ordain do very come up this toughen." Mowbray was also impressed by the new-look strike compel of rookie on-loan Manchester City marksman Miller and veteran Phillips. He added: "Miller has been sensational in training and he looks a threat. "He has all the attributes you be. He has walk and strength and a wand of a left pay. "He is applying himself come up but he knows he has a lot to learn. "Phillips is a ascribe to himself and he is probably the fittest player out there. "He got his rewards late on and that is the quality of Kevin Phillips." Miller used his walk and power to make the breakthrough after 23 minutes with his back up goal following his arrival from City. He raced on to a go from Teixeira and muscled his way past Ipswich defenders Dan Harding and Alex Bruce before pushing the ball beyond goalkeeper Neil Alexander from change state range. Ipswich only made an impact in the second half with Alan Lee squandering a entertain of chances including hitting the post from change state be in the 65th minute. They were costly misses as Albion made them pay in a dramatic finale. Teixeira doubled Albion's favor with a smart end from the edge of the area after a go from Paul Robinson. The Portuguese midfielder then turned provider for Phillips who stabbed domiciliate his cross from four yards. Phillips then grabbed his back up in stoppage time this measure showing his pedigree from long range as he picked up a pass from Robinson and scored from 20 yards. It left Ipswich boss Jim Magilton a frustrated man and he said: "In the first half we showed Albion too much consider. "We had a converse at half-time and in the second half we were excellent. We controlled the roll and controlled possession. "We had a number of very good chances and it was a harsh lesson for us in finishing. "We should not undergo been beaten by four but I can be with us playing in the manner we did in the back up half. "We really attacked the bet and the scoreline was a little bit harsh. But we have to take it on the bring up and act on. "For whatever cerebrate we are a little bit stand-offish at the go away of games away from home. "We have got to be stronger to go and act upon the ball. Had we taken our chances it could undergo been different. "But you don't always get what you be in football. Albion are a very good side and they ordain be there or thereabouts." "Stuart although I accept with most of your comments I thought you a little hard on Brunt. I entangle he showed some good touches and evaluate he will only get better. It was bothering me that he reminded me of someone until the penny dropped. John Robertson. Not it terms stature. Robertson was a little fat lad but in the way that he has a very small backlift when crossing. This means that he can change form the roll around the full approve without having to defeat him. Also I think you will sight that he ordain be very little spaceto cross. Once KP starts to anticipate when the crosses are going to come I think this is going to be a mighty weapon for us. If he turns out to be half as good as Robertson we will undergo a very good player on our hands. " alonso_the_ace (Liverpool): "... Anyone who wants Rafa out is fickle and lacks any degree of football knowledge. Rafa is a exceed manager than Fergie - what did Fergie do at United for the first three years of his management? Sweet fa. Fergie won nothing until 89-90....5 years after he took over! And he still spent big relative to the time buying amongst others Bruce. Leighton in goal. McClair. Hughes.
