‘Conor is a consistent player than can play in different positions. We are happy with him.

‘Circumstances happen in the past, we can say nothing, we can only say our feeling from day one and he has shown great commitment to the club, he was captain two days ago, he is an important player but the future I don’t know.

‘If you are the best you are going to play, even if we spend big money on a player, that is football.

‘All players in the squad know they are going to play if they deserve to play. That is the thing that is happening with the squad.

‘Just because we spent big money on a player does not mean he is guaranteed to play. We are so happy with Conor, we hope he stays with us.’
