Miller Decision Friday - Ipswich Town News
The Blues will wait until Friday to make a decision whether to play midfielder Tommy Miller against Brighton at Portman Road on Saturday. Miller injured his elbow in the 1-0 victory over Leeds and missed the trip to Sunderland.
The former Hartlepool player is back in training but the injury will not be completely healed for up to a month.
Miller told the club site: "The elbow is still sore and I have been running this morning and I can feel it.
"I can't wear a cast or anything because I need the mobility in my arm to get around the pitch and even if I could wear a cast there is obviously an issue of being a danger to other players on the pitch.
"I hope to step up training on Thursday and see how we go from there. I am desperate to be available for the Brighton game but it's still touch and go at the moment and a decision won't be made until Friday."
