Ipswich Town: Kieran McKenna praises Nathan Broadhead’s Arsenal cameo.

Nathan Broadhead’s sparkling cameos in the Premier League have earned him praise from Ipswich Town manager Kieran McKenna, but the winger still needs to improve before he can start at the level. The 2c-year-old missed the majority of preseason due to a hamstring injury and was struggling to regain match fitness as a result. Even when he was available, he was frequently left as an unused substitute or out of the squad entirely, raising concerns among supporters. His debut appearance occurred at the end of November, when he was substituted in a 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest. He also appeared in the latter stages against Crystal Palace, Newcastle United, and Arsenal, appearing fit and enthusiastic.

“Full credit to him,” McKenna said after Friday night’s defeat at the Emirates Stadium. “It’s obviously been a bit of a slow burner coming into the season with a big injury in pre-season, but he’s getting more regular minutes at the moment.
“Every time he comes off the bench, he makes a positive contribution. “It’s still a step forward to start a game with the energy that it requires, but he’s working on it. “I think that, every time he’s coming on in different game states, he’s having a good impact at the moment.”
