Miller: Break Was Good - Ipswich Town News
Midfielder Tommy Miller says Town's five-day break in Tenerife last week helped bring the squad even closer together. The former Hartlepool says that the players can't wait to get back into action against Sheffield United at Bramall Lane on Saturday.
Miller said: "The team spirit was already strong before we went out there but the trip brought us even closer together.
"We had a couple of days where we just rested and did our own thing. Some of the lads just laid by the pool and had a swim, while others played a bit of tennis or golf.
"We did a lot of running on the other days and in the heat it was hard, but we had to keep our fitness ticking over.
"Now we're raring to go against Sheffield United on Saturday. We're in good shape, confident without getting carried away and ready for the vital run-in."
