Impact Davis was central to the Ipswich attack Saturday, leading the team in crosses attempted (five, two accurate) and corners (four). Davis also earned his first Premier League assist as Ipswich opened the scoring in the first half with a goal in transition.

Liam Delap - Scores stunner in draw Delap scored one goal to go with four shots (two on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Fulham.

Impact Delap unleashed a screamer Saturday from long range that left a vapor trail before its' flight was interrupted by the back of the Fulham net. After arriving at Ipswich Town on transfer from Manchester City, Delap and the Ipswich faithful won't forget his first goal. Delap spent the 2023 - 2024 campaign on loan in the Championship at Hull City where he scored eight times and supplied two assists over 31 appearances (26 starts).

Arijanet Muric - Saves three in draw Muric made three saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Fulham.

Impact Muric was able to repel three of the four on-target Fulham shots Saturday as Ipswich earned a share of the points from the 1 - 1 draw. After missing the opening match of the campaign due to injury, Muric has made four saves and conceded five through two appearances. Following the international break, the veteran keeper's next test will likely come in the form of Brighton Hove & Albion, who have scored seven goals over their first three matches.

George Hirst - Targeting October return Hirst (knee) is recovering well and is targeting a return in October, according to manager Kieran McKenna. "[George] Hirst has progressed well and we hope to see him in the next r...

Impact Hirst was a crucial contributor in the Championship, and was expected to play some role in the top flight. A serious knee injury cut his pre-season short, but he is continuing to recover. With the bevy of new attacking signings in the team it's possible that Hirst won't have a first team to return to even when deemed fully fit.

Harry Clarke - Training outside Clarke (undisclosed) is training outside, according to manager Kieran McKenna. "No new injuries from Man City, Wimbledon or training this week. Nathan Broadhead is close to a retur...

Impact Clarke isn't back in full team training, but he is working outside once more, a good sign in his recovery. The defender will struggle to get on the pitch in the Premier League even when fully fit and available, as Ipswich have strengthened throughout the team heavily since their promotion.

Nathan Broadhead - Nearing return Broadhead (hamstring) is nearing a return to training, according to manager Kieran McKenna. "No new injuries from Man City, Wimbledon or training this week. [Nathan] Broadhead is c...

Impact Broadhead won't return to training before the international break, but is getting closer. The forward likely won't play any major role even when fully fit, but still a full return is a good sign. The forward has been out for more than a month with a hamstring issue.

Chiedozie Ogbene - Signs with Ipswich Ogbene has completed a transfer to Ipswich Town from Luton Town, according to his new club.

Impact Ogbene is returning to the Premier League after being demoted with Luton Town last campaign, with the attacker joining newly promoted Ipswich Town on a four-year deal. He started in 20 of his 30 appearances last campaign, notching four goals on 35 shots and one assist on 26 chances created to go along with 79 crosses. That said, he is a decent contributor who could see solid time on the pitch this season, likely fighting for starting time but beginning in a rotational role.

Kalvin Phillips - Eligble again Phillips is eligible to play again after being loan-locked against Manchester City.

Impact Phillips had to sit out Saturday, as he was facing his parent club and was considered loan-locked. However, he is now eligible to play again and should be included in their next match. He has yet to appear for the club since joining, although he has only been with them just over a week. That said, expect him to be on the team sheet next match, probably seeing a bench spot before working for starting time.

Sam Morsy - Solid defensively Morsy registered six tackles (three won) and four clearances in Saturday's 4-1 loss to Manchester City. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 36th minute.

Impact Morsy didn't see much action in the attack due to the relentless press and possession of Manchester City but still provided on the defensive side of the ball despite the loss, notching one block, four clearances and six tackles. He has now started in both matches this campaign, although he hasn't been too productive, with most of his stats coming on the defensive side of the ball.

Ben Johnson - Provides assist Johnson assisted once to go with three crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 4-1 loss versus Manchester City.

Impact Johnson earned his first goal contribution since joining Ipswich Sunday, finding Samuel Szmodics in the seventh minute for the opening goal of the match. He got his first start of the season after Axel Tuanzebe started at right-back in their first match. He will hope to see more time in the starting role, although it looks likely that he will only share time with Tuanzebe.

Arijanet Muric - Concedes four against City Muric made one save and allowed four goals in Saturday's 4-1 loss to Manchester City.

Impact Muric didn't have the debut he was hoping for with Ipswich, as he would end up letting four past him in the loss to City while only making one save. He should continue in a starting role now that he is fit, although he won't be much help in terms of fantasy, as he is stuck on a team projected to struggle this season.

Dara O'Shea - Moves to Ipswich Town O'Shea has signed a five-year deal with Ipswich Town completing a move from Burnley.

Impact O'Shea returns to the Premier League after starting 32 of 33 appearances in one season with Burnley last campaign. The defender provides Ipswich with an experienced centerback who played well in the league last season accumulating 158 clearances and even seven goal involvements last year.

Jack Clarke - Signs with Ipswich Clarke has joined Ipswich Town on a five-year contract, signing from Sunderland.

Impact Clarke makes the swap to Ipswich after scoring 28 goals in 114 appearances for Sunderland in the lower levels of the English football pyramid. The forward will compete with Conor Chaplin and Liam Delap for playing time while Wes Burns is out injured.
