Webster Praises Sereni - Ipswich Town News
Town keeper coach Malcolm Webster has praised the professional attitude shown by Matteo Sereni since losing his place in the side to Andy Marshall. Sereni has missed the last three games, but has not let his head drop.
Webster said: "He has been the perfect professional. We have three keepers with exceptional talent and at the moment it is Andy Marshall who is in the spotlight. He sat in the wings for the first half of the season but did not waste his time. He was learning on the training ground and when watching Premiership matches. Both keepers will be fighting as hard as they can to earn the first team jersey. Andy has done well since he came in and his penalty save against Derby on Saturday was vital. Matteo kept us in many games during the first half of the campaign. He has taken the manager's decision to play Andy on the chin and been a perfect professional. We have had a long talk and Matteo is working very hard to regain his place. The intensity surrounding the Premiership is so great and there are times when players can benefit from a rest."
