"I think he’s a very good, vocal presence in the dressing room. He’s really helped the players, supported them, that have been in the team when he’s not. You know, if Dwight gets one chance, it could be the key moment in the season to keep us in the league. He could be that player that delivers in the crucial moment, so he needs to be ready for his chance.”
