Thirty minutes after Ipswich took the lead, the visiting Sunderland supporters began chanting, ‘We want a striker.’

Five minutes later, there were some sarcastic cheers from the away end when Rusyn was introduced. But it’s obvious that they—as well as Beale—would prefer to see more goalies arrive this month.

Jack Clarke responds to rumors about transfers
Fans of Sunderland will also be hoping that they can hold onto their main players this month, as Jack Clarke is rumored to be attracting interest from West Ham and other Premier League teams.
Clarke is believed to have been content on Wearside since Burnley’s summertime attempts to sign the winger, as the 23-year-old scored his 13th league goal of the year to give Sunderland a 1-0 lead at Portman Road.
In celebration, Clarke ran to the touchline to join his teammates and threw an embrace with Hemir Semedo, the substitute. It was not the kind of performance you would anticipate from a player who is trying to get away.
