“I heard about interest late last week and everything was done in quick fashion, which was really good.
“The manager expressed his thoughts and views for myself and for the season. I bought into his ideas straight away. His message was really clear and he came across really well. He told me what he expects from me and I look forward to trying to live up to his expectations.
