Collison Targeting First-Team Place - Ipswich Town News
New signing Jack Collison is targeting winning and keeping a place in the Town first team between now and the end of his short-term deal. The 25-year-old put pen to paper on his contract earlier today.
"There is a good squad here and a lot of competition for places so I know it will be no easy task to get in the side,” the former West Ham man told Ipswich Player.
"It’s down to me to get my head down and work hard and impress the manager enough for him to give me a chance in the team. Then I’ve got to take that chance.
"In the short space of time I’ve been here I have enjoyed working with the players and the manager. There is a good feel about the place and everyone knows what a great club Ipswich is.
"I’m here until the end of December and we will see what happens after that. All I am focused on at the moment is getting back to playing football again, enjoying my football again and getting in the team.”
