Ipswich Town manager Joe Royle is wary of the free-kick threat posed by Derby County midfielder Inigo Idiakez.

The Spanish midfielder has found built up a reputation for finding the net from free-kicks and Joe Royle is well aware of the threat he will bring with him on Saturday.

Royle: “He might not just be the best in the Championship, he might be the best in the country, he's that good, I watched him play against QPR recently and he hit the bar in that game and made their 'keeper make a number of good saves so we have to be wary of him, that's for sure.

“He's very dangerous and we will be telling our players no silly free-kicks around the box because it's like a free shot at goal for him, he's outstanding.”
