Gregson’s Comments: “Mike had a brilliant season at left back last year. He was one of the best full backs in the country. We think we can use him further up the field as an attacking force and we think he’s going to have a lot of joy down the left wing for us. He brings pace and skill and an eye for goal to that position.”
