Ipswich Town 2-0 Lincoln City: Andy Warren player ratings (East Anglian Daily Times)

Ipswich Town beat Lincoln City 2-0 at Portman Road this evening. Andy Warren hands out his player ratings. Christian Walton Barely had to break a sweat...

But it was his work on the ball which caught the eye, as he took it well and moved it on cleverly to bring others into the game. The attacker’s move up the pitch helped turn the game at Fleetwood on Saturday, and he was given the chance in that role tonight. The touch the attacker was able to show during this game was outstanding, as he used it superbly to help his side keep possession and threaten the Lincoln defence. He should really have scored with what was surely a shot from inside the box, but fortunately his effort landed at the feet of Jackson for the striker to turn home. Was involved early and often in this game, shooting over inside the opening few minutes but finding his range as the first period went on. Barely had to break a sweat in the first half, before also having a quiet second.

Ipswich Town FC: Who replaces Edmundson and Morsy? (East Anglian Daily Times)

Ipswich Town's win against Lincoln was slightly dampened by a string of second half injuries. STUART WATSON looks at who could step in for some key games.

Penney hasn't featured since he was taken off in the 2-0 loss at Bolton on January 15. Of all of them, I'd make the strongest cases for CONOR CHAPLIN and KAYDEN JACKSON. Both work hard, can deliver a cross and know where the net is. I'll finish with a wildcard option in CAMERON HUMPHREYS. The 18-year-old is shining for the U23s and has a number of Premier League clubs tracking his progress. Could any of the forward players play the advanced right wing-back role? An alternative would be BAKINSON trying to replicate the Woolfenden role. Kane Vincent-Young or Matt Penney fill the left wing-back void in this scenario. El Mizouni brings far less experience, but would be the closest thing stylistically to Morsy when it comes to playing with a physical edge. With just two fit senior centre-halves, would it best to switch to a back four? The 26-year-old did play on the left side of a back three for former club Accrington Stanley though and will add some extra aerial threat at set-pieces. He's done everything he can to prepare himself to step into the team." Celina has played central midfield for Swansea, Dijon and Kosovo. He was tried there by McKenna at Fleetwood last weekend. But if it's not then McKenna has some thinking to do...

Carroll? Idris? Celina? Quick return of Evans Morsy was just a clever bit of bluff work KVY. No idea why but just chucking a name in.

Both work hard, can deliver a cross and know where the net is. Kane Vincent-Young is capable of playing on the right or the left. I'll finish with a wildcard option in CAMERON HUMPHREYS. The 18-year-old is shining for the U23s and has a number of Premier League clubs tracking his progress. Kyle Edwards, if fit, would also be very much front and centre of the conversation.

Team news, match coverage and reaction as Lincoln City face Ipswich Town (7.45pm kick-off)

You can see why they’d only conceded one in seven going into the game. The corner is met by Edmundson. His effort is blocked by a defender and goes behind for another Town set-piece. You can see why they’ve scored goals. A rare opening for the Imps as Norton-Cuffy gets into the box but his cross is too high and runs out of play. Fair play to them, sometimes you’ve got to hold your hands up and admit you’ve come up against a good side who are in a better place than us at this moment in time.

Maguire made way for Anthony Scully two minutes later as Appleton looked to freshen up his attack in search of a way back into the game. Burns played through Janoi Donacien on the right who then picked out Burns again in the centre of the box, but his shot missed the target. The attacker drove towards the byline and played a lofted cross that kept Jordan Wright on his toes but missed its desired target.
