Boss Paul Jewell looks set to hand Guirane N’Daw his Town debut when the Blues take on Middlesbrough at the Riverside on Saturday (KO 3pm). The Senegalese international joined Town on a season-long loan shortly before the transfer window closed at the end of last month.
Tommy Smith scored twice and David McGoldrick and Aaron Mclean netted their first goals for the Blues as Town romped to a 4-0 victory over Middlesbrough at Portman Road. With boss Mick McCarthy missing the game due to illness, Smith headed home the first seven minutes before the break, McGoldrick lashed in the second soon after the restart, Mclean added the third just prior to the hour, before Smith nodded in the fourth late on.
TWTD understands that Tottenham youngster Massimo Luongo is amongst the players manager Paul Jewell is hoping to bring to Portman Road ahead of the start of the new season. The 19-year-old Australian midfielder is available on a season-long loan.
Town boss Paul Jewell thought his side probably deserved to beat Burnley by more than just 1-0 after what he felt was an excellent second half performance.
