Arsenal 1-0 Ipswich - the fans' verdict

We asked for your thoughts after Friday's Premier League game between Arsenal and Ipswich.

Here are some of your comments:

Arsenal fans

Matt: It's better than it was earlier in the season, but our only real failing is not running forward into the opponent's box quick enough when we're on the attack. A two against one in our favour quickly becomes a two v five as defenders get back quicker than our midfield gets up front! Otherwise all good - and especially good to see Martin Odegaard using his right foot!

Les: Switched channels after five minutes. Passing side to side or standing with your foot on the ball is so boring. League Two and National League games are much more exciting.

Richard: Arsenal must score more goals with the possession they have. It's not an easy watch with the score at 1-0. Surely something must be done about the blatant man handling at set pieces especially when the referee is no more than 10 yards away.

Julio: Frustrating home performance. Over 80% possession demonstrated our control of the game but our inability to convert this dominance into more goals was disappointing. We need to show more cutting edge in the final third, particularly in home fixtures where teams set up defensively against us. A win is a win, but we must win better.

Ipswich fans

Tom: A defiant and commendable defensive display, but lacking that final killer ball. Any time we went forward we did the right things but never looked to make a darting run, or more importantly, we failed to release the trigger. When we looked to be a threat on the counter, we were too hesitant to shoot and were never really a danger to Arsenal. Too much respect shown to Arsenal whilst lacking confidence to advance in possession of the ball in fear of losing it. A valiant effort, but you can't get a result from games if you don't take a chance.

Lonnie: Damage limitations personified. Good result for me. Bring on Chelsea. If we can mirror this we cannot complain.

Bazooma: Why can't Kieran McKenna shut up shop like this set up when Town have been 1-0 up with 15 minutes to go in previous games? Hope he learns from this.

Chris: Great effort. Would not rule Ipswich out of playing in the Premier League next year yet!
