What is Ipswich Town’s objectives and finances?
Backed with a 30,000-strong support and good financial backing for League One, you are expected to get promoted in year one, and be fighting for Premier League promotion by 2024. You are also expected to play attacking football, and to mostly focus on domestic talent. This can make building a team quite a challenge, but it is by no means impossible. You have more money than one might expect, after the club was taken over.
Your primary aim should be to try and work towards building an infrastructure within year one whilst using your Championship-level squad to get promoted. You must get promoted in year one, and any kind of worries that you will not make it will almost certainly see you sacked.
Get into the second tier, though, and life becomes more comfortable. There is much to think about, but so long as you can get promoted in year one, you should be able to meet expectations.
Who are the best players at Ipswich Town?
You have some good players at Ipswich Town, and it will be up to you to put that team together into a solid unit that can all play as one.
In terms of first-team talent, you have Scott Fraser, a solid attacking midfielder, who can do a great job at this level. Other good first-teamers include Tom Carroll, an excellent midfield player, and exciting attacking player Kyle Edwards. You might also wish to look at giving Sam Morsy some game time, as the experienced Egyptian can fill numerous roles to a Championship standard.
In terms of potential, you should be looking to give as many games to Rakeem Harper and Idris El Mizouni as you can. These are the two gems in the team to build around in terms of potential and will be vital to anything that you can try to build here.
