Ndaba on bench for Ipswich centre half for first time today
Looks like another young Irish player about to make a first team breakthrough. Should get a good run in League 1 next year which will serve him well.
We're starting to see signs of this crop of young talent making a breakthrough to senior teams now, Collins (age 17) and Connell (age 18) both started in the Championship yesterday with Ndaba (age 19) on the bench. Hopefully see one or two more of them before the end of the season and then there should be more opportunities in pre-season as well.
Lambert will give him his debut before the end of the sesson.
Can't post link, but this is according to the East Anglia Times.
Pity two of them started in relegated sides though.Quote:

Interesting one. I think he's a player that we would know a lot more about if he had been born one week later than he was, as he'd have been eligible for the Under 21s this time around. As a left sided centre back he would have been useful to have - at least until Cashin became eligible.
They may be playing at similar stature clubs in League 1 next year, Derby and Ipswich. Plenty of youngish Irish centre backs in League 1 anyway - O'Hora, McNally, Paudie O'Connor, Cashin, Ndaba and probably more I've forgotten about.

Didn't know this lad was playing the season at LWB for Kilmarnock. Saw they finished fourth in the league and fans are hoping they can get him permanently this summer.
