I spoke with some people and with my family about the club.”The feeling they had, and the feeling I had in my stomach, was that this was a really good match.”On his playing style, Hogh added: “I like to be in the box and score goals, but I also want to help my team-mates defensively and work hard for the team.”I’ve trained throughout the summer and I’ve already played league games in Norway, so I feel ready. I just want to get started and be thrown into the fire.”Ipswich sign Japan forward Maeda from Celtic
