AFTER a flurry of activity in the summer transfer window, Ipswich Town manager Kieran McKenna is looking forward to working with a settled squad for the rest of the year as he prepares to take on Brighton and Hove Albion this weekend.

By the time the window shut at the start of September, newly promoted Ipswich Town had recruited an entire new team of senior players, with nine signings, two loanees, plus four academy additions.

This compares to the seven outfield players brought in during the equivalent window last summer.
