Sixto Says Go For It! - Ipswich Town News

On Loan Argentinian Sixto Peralta say Town should play positively as they seek to dig themselves out of the relgation zone. Peralta is set to return to the side at Blackburn after missing out in the last two matches with a thigh strain.

The Inter Milan man said: "We need to go there with confidence in our ability. We must not be afraid of them and we should go at Blackburn and play our attacking game. That is when we are at our best, when we are taking the game to the opposition.

"We have 10 finals left and we must play each game with the same intensity."

The man who likes to be called Mumo added: "I have been very frustrated not playing but now I'm eager to get back into action. I get more nervous and worried sitting watching than actually playing.

"I had a scan in the morning and everything was fine. Then I trained with a ball for the first time in a couple of weeks and had no problems.

"I'm confident that I will be available for Wednesday night. I was working on my fitness last week with Simon Thadani so I'm ready."

Chris Makin, Jermaine Wright and Fabian Wilnis are also likely to be OK for selection at Ewood Park. Thomas Gaardsøe is the only senior player definitely out.
