"Six points from Ipswich Town's opening four Premier League games, which have included both a win at home and away, is a return I am certain the majority of Blues supporters would have settled for before kick-off against Sunderland last month. A win in the Carabao Cup as well is further improvement on the previous two campaigns, when the Blues fell at the first hurdle to League Two opposition. This week, there was no disgrace for Gary O'Neil's side in losing to Premier League champions Arsenal in the cup, particularly as they made the scoreline look a bit more respectable thanks to yet another late goal - Ipswich have now scored five goals already this season in the 90th minute or beyond, which is another positive trait in terms of their attitude.
