Ipswich Q&A: Who plays in goal and in attack?

We have been putting your questions to BBC Radio Suffolk sports editor Graeme McLoughlin in a special Ipswich Town Q&A session.

In this section, the focus is on the goalkeeping position and the form of Omari Hutchinson.

James asked: Given the choice of Arijanet Muric, Christian Walton, Alex Palmer and Cieran Slicker, who should be Ipswich's goalkeeper?

Graeme said: When everyone is fit, I would say Christian Walton. While some members of Town's League One contingent continue to get regular game time, he is one of a few that have had to be more patient off the back of new faces joining the club. I think he deserves the opportunity.

Given his current injury though, surely it will be an Ipswich debut for Alex Palmer in the FA Cup this weekend. I do wonder if one error too many from Aro Muric might even cost him a place on the bench.

If Walton is absent for a few weeks, then this is an early chance for Palmer to hold onto the shirt for the rest of the season.

Golfer asked: Is it time to bench Omari Hutchinson? His passing and decision-making seems off. I love his energy and know he is always a threat, but lately he seems to dribble into double/triple teams and too easily gives up the ball.

Graeme said: For me, Omari Hutchinson plays. I do not think he and others have been helped by rotation elsewhere in the team, a lot of which this season has been down to injuries.

I liked the front-four selection against Southampton, but the execution on the day was not the best. It was the first time we had seen Hutchinson, Julio Enciso and Nathan Broadhead start together and at this moment in time, that would be my preferred trio behind Liam Delap.
