Keane Pleased With Attitude - Ipswich Town News

Boss Roy Keane was pleased with his players' attitude during the 2-0 victory over Colchester United in Fabian Wilnis's testimonial The Irishman felt his side improved in the second half after a poorer first period.

Keane said: "It was a good workout. In the first half we didn't really get going, but we were much better in the second, just like the Southend game.

"I was pleased with the players' attitude because it was a celebration game for Fabian and sometimes you can have concerns about that before kick-off, but the attitude of the players has been spot on.

"We have picked up one or two injuries. Lee Martin and Liam Trotter are both slight concerns for us. They are feeling their hamstrings and we will know more in 24 hours, but hopefully they have just cramped up.

"Shane Supple, Kevin Lisbie and Alan Quinn have all got groin injuries, so we will have to see what they are like as well because we have a busy week ahead. We won't take any chances though."
