Jim's Pablo Call - Ipswich Town News

Club skipper Jim Magilton has urged striker Pablo Couñago to work harder at getting back into the first team. Magilton says that the squad are well aware of the Spaniard's qualities and that he is well capable of winning a place in the side.

The Town captin told the club site: "The players all know what Pablo is capable of here.

"He is a quality player with so many good things about his game and the gaffer has made it pretty clear that if he is firing on all cylinders then he will be in the team. Simple as that.

"But I think if Pablo is honest about the situation, he will accept that perhaps he has not reached the level he can on a consistent basis this year.

"He has to keep working hard at his game and be patient and when the opportunity comes along, take it.

"Dean Bowditch has been in a similar situation this season and spent time on the bench but was given his chance against Coventry and was outstanding for us."
