Ipswich are a bit if a mystery, because their achievement of holding a place at the top of the table for most of the season is nothing less than staggering, bearing in mind that they are basically a team of ‘journeymen’ who struggled to get out of League One for a number of years. Players like Luongo, Morsy, Chaplin, Burns, Harness, Jackson, Ball have been around the lower leagues for a while without ever really achieving anything. They have added a quality in the forwards this season but the backbone of the team is mainly the above with a few young academy players mixed in. It is definitely their forward play that is pushing them on. Their defence is rather average and they do concede alot of goals. If they don't go up this year then they will probably lose some of their better forward players and next year would be a much more difficult proposition. Most of the credit has to go down to the manager for organising them into a team that wins games.
