It’s been brilliant working under the manager. It’s an experience I’ve not had before with any other manager so it’s one of the main reasons I wanted to sign here. I’ve worked so well with him the last six months and I feel I can learn so much from him. You listen to every word he says, we cherish having him here. The manager has put his faith in me and I want to repay that.”
