“If I can help the team I am happy. I am a team player – if we win I go home happy.
“All the players know the system of how the manager wants us to play. I have played left-back in training, and at Aston Villa, and as a young guy coming through at Leeds.
“I'm not a left-back but I feel can do a job there, but there are others in the team who can do a job at left-back as well.
“Leroy can play there as well, but if I'm selected you will get nothing less than 100 per cent and if I'm not selected I'll be on the bench screaming and shouting, pushing the lads on to do well.”

Delph was heavily linked with a £12million move away from City in the summer, with Stoke and Newcastle heading the list of clubs who wanted him.
The speculation heightened when he missed the summer tour of the US, but he had an injury problem which also saw him absent at the start of the season.
But he says he never truly wanted to leave, and that City were not forcing his hand.
“There was a lot of speculation about new guys, but I was here in pre-season, working hard,” he said.
Mendy succumbs to injury.
“I had a niggle in pre-season and was then injured, and it was just about getting fit.
“There was talk of me going, but I'm here and happy, and as long as I can contribute I will stay happy.
“No player would ever want to leave a club like this. If you do leave the club it's because your services are no longer required.
“That wasn't the case for me – I wasn't being pushed out of the door, and I'm so happy to be here and contributing.”
