Humpreys is the best midfielder we currently have... 18:00 - Aug 1 with 4155 viewsThatMuhrenCross

By no means ready to be a starter in the Prem, and we do need to recruit, but in terms of natural ability, he's the best we have at the moment.

Which is slightly worrying but I'm happy for Cam.

If we can sort out the midfield by the end of this window would be great to see him get a good move where he can play every week. He needs to be.

I’d like to see him get a chance in the prem. I prefer watching home grown talent that has come through the ranks who know what Ipswich is all about than some overpaid hired hand who just rocks up for 1 season and couldn’t care less

If that overpaid hired hand is a better player than Cam Humphreys and helps keep us up that's fine by me.

Give the kid a chance in the Prem I say.

I have a lot of time for a player who keeps trying to improve himself while giving his all for Town. Total respect from to him, rather than slimballs like Omari who went on strike.

Isn't that more a case of him being more switched on and up to speed for a proper crack at showing his worth in a shop window for a likely move?

I've loved watching Cam develop but he's just not the answer to anything in particular at this level, other than maybe a token few sub appearances as we drift down and get relegated without a wimper.

Please please prove me wrong and become the Suffolk Messi in the prem, but it's just a bright spark in the middle of the usual disjointed mess of a post world Cup pre season. Isn't it?

Everyone loves a home grown player, but he was just middling in L1 last year. He isn't going to be with us in a strictly limited 25 man PL squad.

Hopefully he get's a good move off the back of some pre season goals. Bump up his value a bit.

There are not many English players who can do what he does. He just does not waste the ball and can manoeuvre out of tight positions with clever footwork. I still think we need to find a place for him in the team. We are going to have some tough matches in the top flight and a player that keeps the ball is a godsend. I have said this a few times before. Hopefully when he is the best player on the pitch in front of three world cup players, two of whom scored in its latest edition people will begin to realise how good he is.

Give him a position in this team and he will take it with open hands. But not LB like our previous manager did a couple of times. I think a free role in front of the holding midfielders would be perfect.

Did we have a tactical change towards the end that show cased him or did Wycombe just get tired. What ever his final position was give it a try manager if. Also sounded like Anis had a great end to the game. Another player that will surprise people in the top flight.

Last time we were in the PL, the overpaid hired hand, Phillips was certainly not better than Cam. If the guy is never given a chance how are we ever going to know.

On that logic though we just wouldn't make any signings and keep giving players chances.

Much respect to Cam an academy product who will go on to have a good career. But the club needs to keep levelling up. Maybe not with Kalvin Phillips again though.

I thought he was actually poor today.

Got two tap ins, but other than that, game drifted him by.

Call me controversial, but I think he’s better than them all. In reality, Matuswia is better, but that’s more about experience than ability. Cam’s got way more technical ability than Azor.

Yep. And he would do a job in a mid table championship side.

Hope we sign CMs this week.

He has 6 apps in the championship behind him at 22. I would think by his own admission he would think he is not ready for the Premier League.

Nice loan to a championship side this season, then see what is best thing for his next steps.

Playing him in the premier league is the quickest way to destroy his confidence and career.

I would keep him if he is willing. Obviously a squad player, but maybe a few cameo appearances for him. I like the lads attitude.

I’d much rather be bringing him off the bench than Jack Taylor, or heaven forbid, having to play someone out of position there.

He needs to be sold, loans are becoming pointless now, not like we should be thinking about him starting for us in the next 2-3 years.

Good luck to him.

Not sure how you've come to that conclusion. Even if you meant "who is fit at the moment", Nunez is clearly better.

He’s probably 4th best at the moment? And will be 6th probably by the time season starts.

Well if the football world agrees then I look forward to getting 8-10m for him. In reality, we’d do well to get a championship team to take him on loan.

I know people love a local lad but some of the views on here are just crazy.

Imagine he wasn’t from Ipswich and we just signed a 22 yo midfielder from Wycombe to play in the premier league.
