Dreams becoming reality: Ipswich Town on the cusp of Premier League return
Ipswich Town is on the brink of securing promotion to the Premier League after a remarkable season under the guidance of manager Kieran McKenna. With just a point needed at home to Huddersfield on the final day of the Championship season, Ipswich Town and their fans are daring to dream of a return to the top flight after 22 years.
McKenna’s impact on the team has been profound, with key players like Leif Davis, Wes Burns, and Omari Hutchinson all singing his praises. Davis, the top assister in the Championship, credits McKenna for helping him improve his game both defensively and offensively. Burns, who has played in every division from the National League upwards, has been transformed into a high-pressing winger by McKenna, leading to his stunning trivela goal against Coventry.
Hutchinson, a young forward on loan from Chelsea, has also thrived under McKenna’s guidance, scoring crucial goals and providing a different dynamic to the team whether as a starter or impact substitute. McKenna’s ability to develop young talent and instill a winning mentality in his players has been key to Ipswich’s success this season.
As Ipswich Town prepares for the final push for promotion, the team and their fans can take inspiration from McKenna’s words: “It’s not our job to dream, it’s our job to do.” With promotion within touching distance, Ipswich Town will be looking to finish the job and secure their place in the Premier League.
