Town boss Kieran McKenna says three or four players have remained in Suffolk with minor knocks and niggles ahead of tonight’s FA Cup fourth-round tie at Burnley (KO 7.45pm).

Quizzed on whether there were any players who would be missing at Turf Moor, McKenna said: “There are a few. I don’t want to name our team, which if I give away to many of who’s not here than there are probably some positions which are automatic.

“We’ve had three or four who have had to stay behind with minor injuries and niggles that we’ll have to monitor over the course of the week.”

The Blues squad flew up to the North-West yesterday ahead of their first fourth-round replay since February 1998 when they lost 1-0 at Sheffield United.

In addition to injured players, skipper Sam Morsy is suspended having picked up yellow cards in the first match and Buxton tie, while Harry Clarke is cup-tied.

ArchiRob added 08:48 - Feb 8 WOOOSH - My initial comment was meant as a tongue in cheek joke, I actually rate Kieran he is clearly articulate and intelligent but only history will be the judge if he is a great Ipswich manager but I believe he should be given every opportunity and support available. I Just wish the back line was as defensive minded as some on this site (another attempted Dad Joke .) I also appreciated the comments from the tactical geniuses on this site who advise that Kieran clarifying that leaving 3 unnamed players or 4 unnamed players behind would give Kompany such an insight to the make up of team - clearly intellectual giants. (err - that was sarcasm)
