Carl Rushworth and Zian Flemming 08:25 - Jun 2 with 6032 views | itfcjoe | Todays links via Darren Witcoop in the Mirror Brighton undecided on Rushworth future after an impressive loan at Swansea Flemming could be available for £4m after Burnley failed to lure him away last summer and he’s had a disappointing season |  |

Carl Rushworth and Zian Flemming on 08:42 - Jun 2 with 5389 views | Swansea_Blue | Rushworth isn’t a patch on Hladky as a footballer so I’d be VERY surprised to see us go there. He’s a good shot stopper though and is young, so will only get better. |  |

Carl Rushworth and Zian Flemming on 08:46 - Jun 2 with 5336 views | BlueBoots | Would be happy with either / both of those... We've moved Hayes on - I'd be inclined to try to get Hladky and Walton signed up again as well as a new keeper (if not Rushworth, someone else), and get Slicker a season long loan somewhere (he'd now count towards squad numbers this season) We're big time now - 3 senior keepers rather than 2, even if we only end up with 2 in the squad of 25. Flemming had a patchy season, but then again so did Millwall (probably due to having 3 different managers) - still managed decent numbers despite that. Think he has all the attributes to fit in to how we play, and still pretty young too so scope for the usual KMcK improvement. Wouldn't be right for Ipswich to start a season in the top flight without a Dutchman anyway |  |

Carl Rushworth and Zian Flemming on 09:07 - Jun 2 with 5153 views | nodge_blue | I watched a Millwall fan do a video on our Fleming link and he was pretty ok with him going and like you say an average season. He seems the sort of player we could have moved for if still in the championship but it seems a huge leap of faith that he’s going to be a difference maker in the premier. |  |

I guess at £4m you aren’t looking for difference makers but good squad options |  |

Exactly. We quite possibly need 8-10 players. They're not all going to be 20m signings. |  |

It seems crazy how much has changed since we last ate at the top table, given what our record transfer fee paid is, to now be commenting that £4m players are inexpensive squad fillers, doesn’t it? |  |

I agree but don't we think we need a difference maker up top? Scoring goals is the hard part in the prem, im not sure someone like him and Hirst will be enough |  | |  |

He’s not a number 9 though so wouldn’t be competing with Hirst |  |

Flemming isn't a striker, he'd be coming as an option to play as a 10. It's one I'm not sure I see happening, he looked mustard the season before last but hasn't been as effective this season. |  |

Oh my mistake, don't know him,does be only play as a 10 or can he play a little wider in the Broady/ Burns role too? I'm hopeful we'll get Hutch and would love to see him play the 10 with Chappers in support, so would we need another 10 |  | |  |

Longer Hladky doesn’t sign the deal the more likely he’s off. |  |

Really? I won't claim to know much about him but to be schooled at Brighton and identified by Swansea last season, I'd assume he's pretty sharp with his feet. |  | |  |

They were talking about £10-£15m for him last summer when Burnley were sniffing around. If he's available for £4m it could be a very shrewd buy with plenty of upside. You look at Hamer for example who will be £20m this summer. |  | |  |

Gustavo Hamer would be an excellent purchase. Think he would suit our style and obviously knows a little of what is expected in the PL. DUTCH |  |

They would also be the guys that (if the worse happens and we go down) that would likely still be around to help us push for promotion again |  |

I agree but I think our budget needs to be going on difference makers. If we want squad option players then keep players like Harness. |  |

But Flemming is miles ahead of Harness, so is a major upgrade and if we don’t stay up would come down and be a top Champ player which Harness isn’t |  |

I bet Ipswich Wanderers spend that much on the canapés for their end of season awards, never mind players. |  |

No way. Of our three keepers he’s the best for how we play. He’ll sign! |  |

As in out in the ether, the mirror person not breaking it. I don't know if that makes it more or less credible. Could be they are recycling an old story or could be something in it. [Post edited 2 Jun 2024 16:27]
