He spoke about the system that allowed him to shine next to Orel Mangala, stating post-game:
“Orel is a very clever, experienced player. We played great together again.
“I felt comfortable. I used to play in this position at Watford and it’s something I’m used to. I need to come back to this and keep my place in the team.
“I used to play in this position but in recent years I’ve been playing in a more advanced role, wherever the manager is going to play me, I’ll try my best.
“I probably need a couple of games to be more comfortable in this position but this afternoon I showed great character and desire, and I want to keep working on it.”
