Ipswich Town Signs Midfielder Williams

Crystal palace ace midfield Jonathan Williams was signed in by Ipswich Town today, on a month long loan. This twenty something international football player from Wales has been part of nine Premier League matches for Crystal palace. It was earlier reported by current Ipswich Town and ex Eagles defender David Wright that adding Williams to the Ipswich team will sure be an add on to their asset. Wright also added that not only is he an ace defender but he knows his game as well by finding tricky pocket spaces between lines pretty well.

The Ipswich defender also praised William’s intelligence by saying that he can easily pick up the ball and break lines with much ease. He also gets easily at back four courtesy a real great burst on him. Assured by this deal, Wright seemed quite pleased about this signing this young lad from Wales. Talking about his stature, Wright commented that however this 20 year old young man is pretty small, but his strength, speed and technique has highly impressed him.

Young Williams chirps saying that he still can remember the glorious feeling when he signed his first deal, way back when he was only seventeen and it felt marvelous doing so. He added that he feels privileged to play for Crystal Palace and its better since they are playing in the championship.

The Welsh defender has in total made sixty four appearances for Crystal Palace, and can play through middle or out wide. His debut match was in the year 2011 and since then there was no turning back for this young defender. At the moment Ipswich Town holds the tenth position in the tournament, an approximate five points behind the last playing off team, the Reading. Losing to the champion Leicester City during their last game, was Ipswich’s first defeat in last six matches.

FIGHTING CHANCE

Crystal Palace manager Tony Pulis says that the team has given themselves a fighting chance to avoid relegation this season after a 1-0 win over his former club Stoke City. Despite this result, Pulis says that the relegation worries still haunt the club and he will be looking to buy some players in January in order to strengthen the team. Pulis came up against his former club Stoke last weekend. This is the first time he is coming up against Stoke since leaving the club back in the summer. Despite being in the relegation zone prior to the match, the home team managed a spectacular 1-0 win over Stoke.

This helped them to move up several places in the table. Despite this, they still remain just two points outside the drop zone. Puncheon scored the only goal of the game in the second half to give Crystal Palace massive three points. The club was bottom of the table when Pulis replaced Ian Holloway several weeks ago, but they are now in a slightly comfortable position. Pulis has acknowledged it and has said that the club had almost no chance of survival during Christmas, but this victory has changed the outlook.

Palace will now look towards reaching the 40 point tally and they are halfway towards achieving it.

“We’ve given ourselves a chance. We weren’t in the game when I came. Now we’re in the game,” said Pulis. “January is just a very difficult market. We make the offers that we think are fair offers for the players. I’m not moaning about it. People want to get the best value for their football club. It’s life,” said club chairman Parish about the transfer activity of the club in the next seven days of the transfer window. The club’s next match will be against Wigan in the FA Cup.
