    Ipswich Fans...

    Right...

    I live near Ipswich.
    The vast majority of lads in my town are proper Ipswich fans.

    I'm not saying that Walters is the next Steven Gerrard, or anything (he'll be the 3rd Scouser in our team, as well as both full backs)... but they all seriously rate him as a player. Without exception.
    They might backtrack on that now he's gone... fans often do... but I know what they really think of him at ITFC.
    He's not an out and out striker as such... probably more of a Rowan Vine/Mackie type position, but his finishing is very good, he is very strong, he is very decent in the air, and he is the best player at Ipswich - bar none. (or was)


    If we can get a Roberts/Kitson/Scotland to play as the lone centre forward, then have Taarabt, Buzsaky, Walters, Mackie etc... all feeding off him, we will have a team to beat anyone in this league. Anyone.

    And Helgusson isn't doing a bad job of holding that role right now. Yes, we probably need one more good centre forward to nail things down... but Jon Walters is a very good player.
    Seriously.

    so this presents a dilemma then. if walters isnt an out and out striker, that would mean he will replace either mackie or ephraim. i wouldnt want that to happen as both have been brilliant in the opening 2 games...

      It means we will have a better squad.
      =Something that Warnock is constantly saying we don't have. And he's right.

      He's a very good player... that's all that I care about.. not the fee, not what happens to Hogan or anyone else... he will strengthen us.

        Ditto.
        Am rather confused by all this.
        Surely 3.5 million would be best spent on an out-and-out striker?
        If I was Hogan or Mackie I'd be well pee'd off if I was dropped after the start we've had.

          I played sunday league football today.

          Clearly I was the best player on the pitch.

          I scored 5 and made 7 last ditch tackles.

          We lost 5-0 but the rest of my team were sh it!

                  So the player who already had more assists/goals than anyone else is to be dropped to make way??
                  Slightly unfair, wouldn't you think?

                    There were other sentences too!

                    What if Mackie is injured, or loses form? It happens. In fact, it almost certainly will happen.
                    Same for Ephraim? All of a sudden he's nailed on to start all season after 2 good games? Warnock wont drop him if he carries on playing like he has been, but what if he dips in form? Or is having a poor game... who do we bring on then? Josh Parker?
                    What if Walters is better over a season than the pair of them?

                    Squad game, and our isn't deep enough. Yet.
                    Does anyone really think it is?.. and all we need is Jason Roberts/Kitson to make everything else ok??

                    Anyone would think that because we are signing Jon Walters (that's if he actually signs?)... then that means that we wont get anyone else in, and that all the money is used up.
                    If that's the case, then it's the first I've heard of it.



                    Sorry, but I really don't get the reasoning behind a lot of the comments on here in the last hour. (not just yours)

                      Our squad is thin on the ground, we need bodies - especially very good ones.

                        i want him to come, of course i do. but a 3. whatever million player is not signing or signed to be sub, and he would go straight into saturdays team, and to be totally honest i would be proepr heartbroken for hogan after the way hes started.

                          Well that's where I don't see the problem.

                          Because of the kind of man/manager Warnock is... I do not think he would drop Ephraim, Taarabt, Hegusson or Mackie from a winning team just because he's spent some money on Jon Walters, or anyone.

                          BUT... if one of them has a dip in form, or gets a knock, or is having a poor game - they're hooked. And replaced by Jon Walters, rather than replaced by Josh Parker. (no offence to JP)

                          The same applies to Walters. If he starts, and isn't producing, then Warnock is the type to hook him off, and replace him with Hogan/Mackie or whoever deserves it.

                          Squad.

                            Take one look at McBoro and see what has happened to Flood and Thompson and it will show you need strength in depth. If we lost two of our first team players who would we have to come in and who would then replace them on the bench?

                            We have very little depth and Walters would strengten the squad.

                            Very good signing IMO.
