Ipswich Town standout player Wes Burns has pointed out a key strength of the team as they head into the crucial final stretch of their Championship season.
The Tractor Boys are in the running for a spot in the Premier League next season, alongside tough competition from Leicester City, Leeds United, and Southampton.
Ahead of Ipswich Town’s upcoming clash with Sheffield Wednesday, Burns highlighted the team’s ability to turn games around and pick up points from losing positions. He credited the squad’s strong team spirit and emphasized the impact players coming off the bench have had on their success this season.
According to Burns, Ipswich boasts the most impactful substitutes in the Championship, with players always ready to make a difference when called upon. He stressed the importance of every player, whether starting or as a substitute, being fully committed to the team’s goal of earning three points in every match.
By declaring Ipswich as the most prepared squad in the league, Burns insinuated that their ability to bring on impactful substitutes sets them apart from their promotion rivals. As they aim for a Premier League spot, Ipswich will rely on their depth and team unity to carry them through the remaining matches.
Currently sitting in third place, Ipswich are in a strong position to challenge for the top spot, with only a few points separating them from leaders Leicester City and Leeds United. However, they must be wary of the threat posed by teams like Southampton, who are within striking distance of the promotion places.
In the final stretch of the season, Ipswich will face tough opponents such as Southampton, Norwich City, Coventry City, and Hull City, as well as a crucial showdown with Huddersfield Town on the last day. The team will aim to secure vital points in these matches and maintain their push for promotion to the Premier League.
