For someone of his size and willing, O'Brian is surprisingly underwhelming when it comes to defensive headers. Maybe it's experience but his feet and body position are all wrong - see Tarky if you want to see how to position yourself for defensive heads. (The best defensive header of a ball we ever had was Richard Gough followed by Dave Watson)
That and a right back that went missing for their second goal.

As did practically all of the Ipswich team in the second half.
I guess I'm n the minority who thought Alcaraz was poor today.
I dont know what happened with Dourcoure but I predict he starts against Fulham next week.
