You are probably getting a pretty streetwise midfield player; you presume they have looked at him a fair bit, and they will have done their homework. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cMaybe there is a feeling that they need to be up there physically, and not get bullied, it is a big physical challenge, it is probably one that Ipswich struggled with last season. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is not a bad way to come at it, it is interesting with Farke, he has managed in the Premier League, and it did not work out, hence the debate over whether he would be the manager.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou would have thought he had learnt a lot about what is required, maybe these are the conclusions that he has come to.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe beauty is in the blend in midfield, there is room for silky creators, but you also want minders and enforcers, so I think it is a question of getting the right amount of silk and steel, that will be the aim.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83d\udea8\ud83d\udd35\ud83d\udfe1 Anton Stach to Leeds United, here we go!
