Lisbie: Speaks out on playing for Ipswich again

Lisbie has at long last spoken out on his thoughts about playing for Ipswich again. The 30-Year-old striker who is on loan to his former club Colchester UTD, has said he cannot see him self playing for Ipswich again.

Lisbie was told in the summer by Keane that he was not part of his plans. So he decided he would rather go on loan to play football elsewhere then not at all.

This was a great choice move for him as Colchester are near the top of Division 1 and Kevin himself has scored 6 goals in the 11 games since he has play for Colchester.

Where Colchester are having a great start to the season, Ipswich are having the complete opposite with not winning a game at all and on only 5 points. They are sitting rock bottom of the Championship.

Ipswich can recall Lisbie back to Ipswich side in January if they want to. But its been reported that Lisbie will do every he can to stay playing in Essex.

Lisbie has said that:

“Once a manager tells you, without seeing you play a single game, that you can go on loan, then it becomes very difficult to say that you would want to play for him again,”

“I don't want to go back. Even if it came to the point where they wanted me back I think I would speak to both clubs and explain my situation.

“I just felt like the club didn't want me. If I had to go back then I would, but I don't want to be going from club-to-club at this stage of my career. I want to be settled and I'm enjoying my time back at Colchester.

“Ask any player, if you feel at home and feel wanted then you are going to play your best football and that's what I feel I am currently doing.

“I feel like, if I was in the Championship and had been made to feel wanted then I'd be playing equally good football too. The way I'm playing has nothing to do with the level I'm at, it's just the fact that I'm somewhere where I'm appreciated.

“I want to stay at Colchester and see things through. I think we are one of the best teams in the league and are really going places.”

Lisbie was taken ill end of last week but was still able to start in the side. He had to battled through the game though but was able to set up Colchester's 80th minute winning goal against Huddersfield. But he was immediately substituted after as he was to ill to carry on the game.

“I think I must have picked up a little bug,” said Lisbie. “I was being sick before the game and my energy levels were down, but the manager asked me to play for him.

“If we'd have had a Tuesday game this week then I don't think I'd have made it, but I should be fine for Saturday.”

Hey - this is STB not Singing Lisa's Pool Team!

Well done anyhow

As for Lisbie - let him go and good luck to him and Colchester. At least he knew that when RK said he wasn't in his plans, he didn't hang about. Am sure Colchester fans are happy to have him back.
