00:00I know you had the opportunity to go elsewhere in this division, so why the Blades?
00:04I think it's a massive club. I've played here a few times and playing at Bramall Lane, the atmosphere is incredible.
00:14Where the boys are this year, going for a promotion, it's a no-brainer really.
00:19You've had a couple of great years at Ipswich promotions and playing regularly.
00:23Is that what you wanted to get back to, to playing regular football again?
00:26Yes, definitely. I had an operation in the summer, so I was hampered with pre-season.
00:33It's all about playing games and hopefully we can get a promotion again.
00:37You obviously know what it takes to get out of this league. It's such a tough division,
00:41but I imagine it's very rewarding when you can succeed in it.
00:44Yes, I think it's a tough league. Anyone can be anyone on their day.
00:49I know what it took last year, so hopefully I can bring that experience.
00:54I'm young, but I've been there, so hopefully we can do that this year.
00:58What did Chris Wilder say to you when he brought you to the club?
01:01He mentioned that really. I'm young, but I've got experience in this league.
01:08I've been in a very successful team, so he wants me to bring that.
01:12I'm enthusiastic, so I'll bring that to the team and hopefully push on.
01:18You know people here, don't you? I'm thinking Tyrese Campbell, Kiefer Moore,
01:21Harry Souza, who was here too. Did you speak to those guys?
01:25Yes, I rang Kiefer. He said he gave me a good word with the boss.
01:32I spoke to Ty and he said it's great. He said the lads are brilliant.
01:36It's a great place to be. I can't wait to get going.
