Ipswich Town manager Gary O'Neil has explained why he selected Jaden Philogene for his team's most recent home game as the battle for left-wing minutes hots up.
Ipswich Town manager Gary O'Neil has discussed his wing options, explaining why he selected Jaden Philogene to start on the left wing in a recent home win against Fulham.
