FULLER
LONDON, England (CMC):
JAMAICAN INTERNATIONAL Ricardo Fuller is hoping the success that Alan Lee experienced at Ipswich comes his way, during his pending loan spell at the east England club.
The 26-year old Fuller, who has been unable to find a settled place at a club since leaving Preston North End two years ago, signed a loan deal with Ipswich from Southampton this week.
Lee moved from Cardiff City to Ipswich recently and has already netted four goals in six outings.
"He was not getting much of a chance at Cardiff, but his move to Ipswich has worked really well for him," Fuller told the club's media.
"Sometimes when players move to a new club that need time to settle in, but Alan has made an immediate impact. He's playing games and scoring goals and the move has given him a confidence boost."
He added: "I'm in the same situation as Alan was before he joined Ipswich. I have not played many games lately and am looking for regular first-team football.
GOOD GOAL RECORD
"I had a good goals record in this league with Preston and I'm confident that if I can get a run of games, I can score goals.
"Ipswich play the style of football I like, a passing style and I'm looking forward to my time here and playing a part in helping the club continue pushing up the table."
Fuller was expected to make his debut for Ipswich on Saturday against Wolves, but the British Home Office indicated that he would need to apply for a new work permit before he could suit up.
