The Whites defender replaced the injured Sam Byram midway through the first-half but was taken off at half-time
Daniel Farke says it was a difficult decision to take off Cody Drameh against Ipswich Town but refuses to lay any blame at the young defenders door. The Whites academy graduate struggled after replacing the injured Sam Byram midway through the first-half, with Farke replacing the substitute at half-time.
"Well, first of all, it feels a bit like right now we're in the season and if you think ‘thank God no sucker punch’, comes another sucker punch," the Whites boss said. "Sam has been brilliant so far and this moment there was an injury. "It was difficult for him to come into such a game to such a hectic game and I won't blame him at all. Obviously he was involved in the second goal and two or three times Burns was in his back and but it was my decision also to let him play that, so if someone wants to blame someone then definitely not Cody because he's brilliant. Always was a great attitude.
"It's more like in the second half I decided to play Jamie Shackleton, pretty reliable player and also a player who can handle the pace of play like Burns but even for him it was not easy, getting a yellow card. We had to be aware because Ipswich uses pace over the right wing pretty much and thank God in the end we were able to grind out three points."
