Jackson in Team of the Week - Ipswich Town News
Town striker Kayden Jackson has been named in the Sky Bet EFL Team of the Week for his display in Saturday’s 3-1 win at Southend.
Jackson netted his seventh goal of the season and also provided assists for James Norwood’s earlier brace, which also took his total for the campaign to seven.
After the game manager Paul Lambert had praise for his strike pair: "I thought they were excellent, I thought they were a handful all game. As a pair they were excellent together. They complement each other really well and their finishing I think is different class.
"Norwood’s finishing was brilliant, right and left foot, and Kayden I think is really, really sharp at the minute. Really happy with the two of them.”
