Ipswich Town forward Jonathan Walters won high praise from manager Jim Magilton for his performance in the 4-1 drubbing of Coventry City at Portman Road.
The 24-year-old has scored six goals in 23 games for Town since joining from Chester City in January and has adapted well to a new role on the right side of midfield.
Magilton told the club's official website: "He would play right-back if I wanted him to. His work ethic, attitude and passion for the game is all that I want to see in a player.
"I feel that a striker playing wide can have a natural instinct for getting in the right areas and that has been proved correct and he has scored with two fantastic headers for us this season.
"He's been a great signing for us, is an outstanding individual and there is still a lot more to come from him."
